You're on, old man. Your exoskeleton will be cremated, if they can find any of it.

Its impossible that his arts sucks than.. probebly he makes the best compostitions, and this is a form of Minimalizm or Abstract art


EDIT:
Oops read his prevourious (how u spell that?) journal entries!
Cops are investigating, so dont say bad things.. also da moderation is banning you if you say bad things..
btw he is part of the top 10% artists!! cos 30% makes crap (like photo's and poetry) 30% makes nothing, and 30% makes art, but not as good as his!

Alright, well I just read the (quite entertaining) quarrel between P.O and Jal/PB, and I felt I had to agree with P.O to some extent.

Not that the mods are power drunk - but I feel that the mood of pixeljoint is quite a tense one. I felt it here after I joined, and even moreso at Pixelation (which is why I don't go there anymore) but at times I really think whether I should come back here as often as I do.
I joined Pixeljoint to improve my pixeling skills and get to know some great pixel artists, and although I don't do as much pixel art as I used to, I still surf to comment on other peoples' art or just look at it and see what others say about it.

But Pixeljoint doesn't feel like I think it should. I'm not going to search up any concrete examples of noob-bashing/public humiliation because it's pointless and I think most of us feel the same as I do - Pixeljoint doesn't feel like the great site I expected it to be. More art, more constructive criticism, more edits, less flaming, less kitties and caps lock sentences, less noobs-who-don't-listen-to-criticism-bashing, less public humiliations would certainly make its' atmosphere friendlier. I hope it does, because I don't want to see Pixeljoint turn sour.

The Utopia you mention is simply not realistic. A community is defined by the diversity of its members and some like kitties and others are annoying n00bs.
Others pick and choose where and how to participate.

A tense atmosphere? really?

I feel that ceddo is right but don't agree fully. While we do really kill those who won't accept critique, and justly so IMO, we might be a bit too intolerant to those who act moderately if eccentrically; P_O is one example of this, and rather than being ignored by those who dislike his nonsensical statements a good many people have cried out against them. I personally enjoy reading his posts, and though I see he would probably benefit from working outside of his comfort zone, I won't flame him for not doing so. It's not doing anyone harm like ripping does, nor wasting our time like posts in the WIP forum that never get updated in response to critique.
 
Another example of this rather extreme reaction to the slightest thing is shown when someone (New members in particular; older members have a lot more room to maneuver and this is another example of prejudice; true, we have more reasonable, rule-abiding posts to describe our good behavioral records, but n00bs get very harsh treatment for honest mistakes.) accidentally post in the wrong forum. They generally get flamed until they leave, even when a simple "topic move" by a moderator would've defused the situation completely. Sure, they should've read the rules. But people should get a strike or three, even if not enumerated out loud, before they're publicly bashed. I agree fullheartedly with bashing those who will contribute only negatively to the community through obviously harmful behavior that indicates they know and enjoy breaking rules, but starting out by distrusting new members and jumping at any chance to attack them seems a bit extreme. Let's all be a bit more tolerant and see what comes of it, I say.

Nicely said, MoD. I don't think "n00bs" don't have enough time to get comfortable here or any community based website. They get chewed up once,and they won't want to come back. Even me, I'll admit, I'll get frustrated at people who don't take critique well, and I still consider myself a "n00b". P_O's outburst probably wasn't completely unnecessary, but I'll agree with him 75% of what he had said.

I don't know what point I was trying to get across, but I figured I could state my thoughts on this whole deal.

What's with everyone suddenly sharing their feelings? It's starting to scare me a little bit.

But I guess I'll jump on the wagon and this is what I have to say at the moment.  Everyone wishes this site was more this this or that.  Everyone has opinions about noobs and elitists. Except only a very small percentage of the members are actually acting upon what they preach.

Only a few people actually give thoughtful critique, I mean, obviously Jalonso has a lot of experience and can give a lot of help and we're all very thankful that he does, and m0d is always nice and fair, and I won't go through everyone, but we all know who the nice ones are.  The rest of the people, myself included, unfortunately, are just kind of around, and those who aren't adding to the negativity, are very rarely adding to positivity. 

I used to try to be very helpful, to promote everything we love about PJ and if you were in the pool last year, you'd know that I was always asking people to go check out the WIP forums and give some critique,  I was always bugging Cure and Rodder, and m0d and I had this sort of club where we'd just get online and critique the crap out of everything we can.  Helpful edits and all.

But in the end, while m0d is still awesomely nice, nothing changed. 
Still there is only a very small group of people who are actively working on improving their art, and helping others do the same, and I kind of gave up because from all the effort I put in, the response was .. oh wait. There wasn't one.

I agree that a lot of new members make innocent mistakes, but I honestly don't think we flame them til they leave..  I haven't seen anything so harsh lately, only when they act really stupid.  Here's an example .  I think everyone with something clever to say, and I'm sure there were  quite a few clever things to say there, just kind of ignored it.  And that's not even.. an honest mistake IMO..

Anyway, I think people complain too much.  I don't think it's tense at all, and I went though my share of drama and noob hazing, but still I can just sit back and have a good laugh.

So relax people.

So I opened my book the other day to read the chapter for the first time an hour before the test as usual and the chapter was entitled "Quantum Physics". I grew suddenly ill. Some profound concepts caused internal discord in my thoughts. I got an A on the test thanks to the idiocy/laziness expected from college students.

Also Michio Kaku is annoying. But I can't stop listening to his egocentric/scientific/theoretical  babble.  We should all seek to be Japanese/Americans that write books on the origens of the universe and string theroy.
