WARNING: Ranting and Complaining Ahead, Proceed With Caution

Published on February 18, 2004 By macrobaye In WinCustomize Talk

Ok...I normally avoid ranting and complaining as much as possible, but this has gotten out of hand...

SOMEONE has been attacking my most recent submissions with unusually low ratings... Take, for instance, the last three:

https://www.wincustomize.com/skins.asp?library=8&SkinID=15327
https://www.wincustomize.com/skins.asp?library=8&SkinID=15329
https://www.wincustomize.com/skins.asp?library=8&SkinID=15328

Never have I seen ANY skins rated 1's and 2's right off the bat...And not only that... I really don't believe that these walls deserve such low ratings. Now I'm sorry if what I'm doing annoys some of you, but this annoys me even more. So, here's a request:

ADMINS:
Please take a look into this situation, because I really hate when people take grudges against another user and vent off steam by shoving low ratings down their throats...

SKINNERS:
If you like the walls, please comment. If you have the ability to rate, please rate.

Thanks for anyone who can post replys, I need all the feedback about this issue I can get.

All this over a 2 rating. Ratings are over rated, be thankful you got your work accepted.

Your comments, China, you have to admit, were very unneeded and provocative

To be honest and not being rude, I don't blame the rating. I just reviewed the rest of your skins/wallpapers and you are able to do a much better job then what you did on those last 3 that got accepted. It almost looks like you went backwards on your designing instead of getting better. But there could be reasons for that - Lack of inspiration, stress, life, etc. All I have to say is that by what I see, you are able to do a much much better job then those last 3. You already proved it before. And if it's because of one of the reasons that I stated previously about why it might of went backwards, then maybe you need a vacation or something to relax the mind and bring fruitful thoughts for inspiration.

Weaksid is done for the moment

Weaksid is looking at these terms used and wonder where he was during English class. I don't remember seeing these anywhere.

OK...so it's derogatory to have your works compared to China's?

Inferences are just that.....inferences.

They can be 'made' to imply anything you 'want' them to, but generally people will take it as an attack when it's just as likely to be totally innocuous...
