Funny, this attitude is exactly what I had in mind when mentioning that this place needs to be more welcoming. I mean, who wants to come here if they'll just be verbally attacked like this. Also, is my opinion any less valid because I'm not a DM regular? Sometimes it helps to get an outside view on things, which is my only intent by posting here.
So thanks for responding; you've done nothing but prove my point. Also I didn't know that rule was already in place; good to know.
That said, Aldrain, no "hard time" was intended; 'twas merely giving my thoughts on the matter.
And I think that more tutorials might help; it would probably save everyone time in the long run to not have to request them.
I presume he was picking on your entering attitude of, "Hey, I got this guys!" When for the higher ups outsiders don't get to come in and call the shots. Which is how you appeared in here. Plus, I don't think you were taking into consideration that I am actually more correct in assuming that most people don't know about sigs. Most people are not part of multiple forums that offer the same amount of versatility as we do. That being said, there are forums that engage in graphic design. But if you look at other forums such as Battlelog, you cannot post pictures into a signature. A lot of forums have no need for that and in turn those members may only be affiliated with forums such as that one.
Anyway, I realize you meant nothing harmful towards me, but don't be so hasty in assuming I am an overconfident, all knowing, teenager. I just happen to be observant. Of course the more 'cultured' members, for lack of a better word, know what we do here. They may not frequent but the know. A majority of new members end up posting in the general creative media section anyway, so their work never get viewed. And honestly, some of it is rather distasteful. WE had a guy show up claiming he made all this stuff, and it was clearly ripped from copyrighted work. Since that time, we haven't had anybody new show up. iDrops has popped in a few times, and some people come here thinking their work goes here, when it goes to the RP section or the CW section.
Some people just don't know what is going on. That's all I am saying. I am not saying they are stupid, they just may be a little oblivious. So, we educate them. The only reason I ever stumbled across the DM section was simply because I wanted to see the SotW entries instead of just the winner, every week.
Which is something that should be re-implemented. I'm unsure just how much bandwidth it sucks up, but showing off the SotW winner at the bottom of the forum page was awesome.
