Jekyll 'n Hyde inside my mind, who shall I be, I cant decide......
Published on November 5, 2009 By Vampothika In Community

I would like to post my distaste to recent comments on my master skin Saboteur.  Calling my work "not master skin quality" is below the belt. Especially when it is a drive by comment and the skin has not even been downloaded. 

I think if you are going to comment on any skin, it should be at least downloaded and tested before inacurate comments and assumptions are made.

 I personally believe that if you have nothing constructive to say about a skin, then please say nothing at all.

I spend many weeks and hours on every skin I do.  I pour passion, talent, and knowledge into them. They are tested in every possible way that a skin can be tested, and only then is it submitted. The same goes for cursors, icons, and any matching accessory I make.

I can handle criticism, but only if it is constructive, and accurate based on the downloading of the skin itself.

How is telling a skinner that their work is subpar and showing how they are stealing other peoples work an attack?

"Stealing" would actually involve distributing the work, which hasn't happened.  We are talking about an error in a description here.

I expect better from senior and long-time members of this site.
And that is a winning statement right there, even though it is directed at me. I too expect better from senior and long-time members.
It was directed at people . . not you specifically.  If you feel that it fits *you*  . . then perhaps a change is in order?  The same is true for anyone else that feels that what they do here (in skinning, or relating to skinners, or interacting in the forums) is not what they might desire in others.

You don't type out whole sentences in error.  She did distribute the work to LGSpence via email when he asked where it was.

As a mod I sometimes am asked to check out master skins.  So I can comment on those I see from trying them.  I don't comment on the master skins I don't try or from the screen shot.  That would be stupid.  How can I say something  about something I haven't tried.  So if you people haven't tried it, how can one comment on it and be truthful about it?  You can't.  So why would one do it.  To sound big?  Be destructive?  Run someone down in the eyes of the people?  Or all the above?  Oh well.....

Right.  Oh, It fits me alright in this instance, I'll make no excuse for it.  It's time someone said something about this kind of crap though.

it is easy to call some one a fool for saying something that others dont like, every one is entitled to there opinon i feel you may have taken it the wrong way, for lightstar saying nasty comments is silly he is a master him self so i dont no why it has not been used in a constructive way. but you still said you dont like pepsi which is your right

WOM wonders when Lightstar was promoted to Master, thought he was a Journeyman.  Hum.  Like I said, comment on a skin if you've tried it.  If not, don't.

I made an obsevation after only being here about a year, maybe two, and being that I'm coming up on the five year mark, things have not changed much at all.  The observation, for an online community things are pretty much like real life here, 

Think about it.

well my opinion is that the screen shot sux and in my eyes if i just happen to buy that skin and didnt like the screenshot and then didnt like the actual skin then if i wrote my opinion i'd be the bad guy still...and be told that i shouldnt have bought the skin if i didnt like the screenshot and then i'd also be told basically that im not allowed to make an honest opinion in the case....RELEASE MASTER SKINS and there wont be any critique...like i said before on the skin page...i have seen better for free from you kitty...have a lovely day

 

"now i find out at least some of it isnt her work, im glad I ddint buy it "

The nearer you get to the top, the more you collect ankle-biters. A bunch of sad individuals who have no self esteem, so have to lash out at others to make them feel good.

Or put into more simple language - wankers.

I feel Master skinners here cannot be challenged for their quality of work , and even the Journeymen, Master Apprentices are people who have been skinning for a while now and have done some great job And all other skinners are almost perfect in their trade just because of the fact that they would'nt be creating it if they did'nt know how to do it/ like it  So Kitty, all the criticism is mainly from people who do not possess the skills of skinning themselves and do not care for the hard work of others. Btw I love all your stuff and can confidently say it would be another awesome piece of art which you usually create !!

Yeah, that's exactly what it is.  Nobody has commented on the fact that I brought up about the wallpaper except for ID saying that "her description was mistaken."  And I'm sure she'll have a good story for it.  I'm finally trying to point out something that is wrong, that's been wrong for a long time.  Something that's been suspected for a long time and all the sudden, I'm the bad guy?  WTF ever.  I'll say what needs said, I don't need a bunch of people backing me up to say it either.  And if you folks that are on the WC or Stardock tit don't like it, so be it.
