    'Constructive criticism' doesn't mean 'agree with everything I say', Swimmerman.

    Constructive Criticism: That's stupid.
    Not Constructive Criticism: You're stupid.

    Or so is my understanding.

    No, It means tell them how to get through their issues, not cramming your own views and opinions down thier throats! :D With all due respect!

    No, criticism has nothing to do with "getting through issues"

    Criticism is pointing out what is wrong (and right) with something. Movie critics point out what is wrong with a movie, or what was done right.

    Constructive criticism is criticism (as defined above) that is used to make the product (fanfilm, animation, whatever) better.

    Non-constructive criticism - "Wow, that sucks."

    Constructive criticism - "It may be better if instead of x, you had y.

    Swimmerman, why did you PM me what you did? Either PM me the names of these cool 11-12 year olds in the Props forum, or something else, I don't care. But don't PM me what you did.

    Am I the only one who was offended by this? What makes it worse is that it's coming from a 13 year old. [face_plain]

    Just to tell you we haven't changed. It's the fact of the new users ask questions sometimes over and over again and are too lazy to read the Sticky. I mean I know I was a noob because the fact I posted so much over and over again to drive the " Rotoscoping Contest II" thread crazy.

    Then until Funk-E and other members who had been here awhile had straightened me out I've stopped spamming and making ridiculous comments. But now all I see are ignorant and stubborn new users posting an FX Test and they won't accept advice from people who know there is a flaw. I've seen the noobs reject help and say their work is the best and just go on and on and on about how you're not a proffessional and just a bunch of crap.

    It's quite surprising how since Dorkman and DV gone, nobody is telling the new users what to do or what not to do in a fashion. Dorkman was straightfoward and told the TOS and rules and DV asked them withought harshness or profanity.

    I'm quite surprised actually how much I've wrote on this post and it's yet to be my longest. I've just got alot to say about more and more noobs starting to talk back about stuff they barely even know.

    ...my fingers hurt...

    Some n00bs don't understand the Stickys, and don't know to read them.

    I think that was a little uncalled for ^^ We're here to talk about treating each other better, not to start a flame war.*

    I'm sorry but I just don't see what's so hard to understand about Read this before posting a new topic. Not kidding.

    *Note that my response to the quote isn't directed at swimmerman personally, just the statement...he just happened to be the one who said it first ;)

    krnbanguboi, You're not helping by trying to find reasons to not like swimmerman91... yes i realise that he's constantly contradicted himself in this thread, however that is NO reason to repost the things he's said, just to make a point to yourself.

    We're gone? :confused:

    Oh and SilverFox, if you didn't notice, swimmerman is the new Fig.

    Let's get back to having a discussion instead of proving the initial poster right, shall we?
