purely in the abstract regarding that image. I was not thinking of string6theory.
In any case, I seriously regret having made that post now. It was a stupid thing to do as it has caused me to waste an entire evening feeling bad that I
inadvertently hurt someone's feelings. It has also made me question the value of trying to interact with others in a community such as this. It is so full of minefields, I'm just not sure it's worth it.
So full of minefields. My god.

My last post on this...
I appreciate your posts on this forum and believe you maisinvague. You are one of the good guys (Mr Koch too).
I agree wrt the minefields.
How much more a minefield when one “risks” posting something they personally designed or developed (music/art/studio, etc) just to have forum worms mocking or making jokes about it, usually deliberately.
Imagine the open sharing that would take place here if everyone did what the wormy trolls do, or if all the non worms explicitly supported the worms doing what they do, by “loving” them and their trolling instead of denouncing it. Which is standing up for your fellow
contributing forum members rather than undermining them & yourself in the long run.
It’s the old, “if it doesn’t effect or happen to me, why should I care or object” syndrome, which is very short sighted indeed.
Anyway, cheers, let’s follow the Dr’s lead and have a cold one! Take careful MV.

The
Forum Rules / Posting Guidelines point 5 states that "fixing" quotes is a no-no, and I agree wholeheartedly with that as a general principle - that would be one way to piss me off as well. Modding the artwork of others in a quote surely falls under that too - something to think about, perhaps...
I know Maison, Knoch and S6T to be Good Guys™ and great contributors, none of who would knowingly want to ridicule or insult other good people.
Have a virtual round on me guys!

Edit: Ooops - ninja'd by an
avalanche of postings and moderation while looking up T&Cs and beer mug graphics. The round is still on me though

As usual Dr Justice has the best sense of fairness and intelligent justice, and comes through with the appropriate breach of the forum rules (supporting a fellow contributing member) and then passes out a round for everyone!
Simply the best of the best of the best. Salute Dr. Justice, I love YOU man!

Thank you. >

So, here we go again Jan. If you don’t agree with what Dr. Justice just pointed out above wrt point 5, then what are these rules for? (Rhetorically asked

)
If a tree falls in the forest, does it make a sound?
If a troll trolls me, will I notice if he’s on ignore? Very possibly, if that troll’s post gets re-quoted by others not on ignore, which happened here. But, is that even the point?
Is is ok for pppch to re-make my original posted design with mocking crap images or is it not ok? How many times does this troll get to troll me and my posts, even after all the bs w’all just went through - all instigated by him?
Anyway, I know your job is a thankless one at times, Jan, so thank you for your consideration and cheers on me.
