On why I don't respond to criticism

Yep, I don't need to write this, but maybe it'll stop all the darn negative comments from taking up so much space. Ock, this means you.

I don't respond to criticism. I quite frankly, don't care.

You can say what you want about my writing, and I don't give. I write how I want, when I want. I don't get paid, I don't ask for your opinions on my writing style, and I really just don't care.

You think I write like crap? Well, I couldn't care less.

It won't stop the negative remarks from coming.

It will only give us more fodder.

Basically, your entire article can be summed as follows: "I pretend I don't care, but I obviously do or I wouldn't post this very article. I'm a pussy."

Thanks for the clarification.

Not a criticism, but just a note. Moderators do not like mentioning other Joeusers by name in forum posts.

Dude, i'm sure you've been informed that your constant flow of.....articles, are not really welcome.

Quality over quantity, that's the deal. Trust me, I've done the same thing, and so I learned patience, among other thigns. You sound like you want to be a part of this community, right? So try tp keep it in mind.

If you continue it, I get comments. If you don't want them, don't comment on them. It makes me feel good.

Oh, and shall I point out that I find specific language very offensive, and will start to delete comments?

Alright Dude, but it's your funeral. Just trying to help you out with some advice.

I'm putting up a comment deletion criteria article right now.

But why?

Do you want to be accepted here? Or would you rather be ran out by angry and (justifiably) pissed off mob with pitchforks and torches? There's an aspect of being a part of a "community," and it's showing some respect in the form of not flooding the forums.

On your profile it says you're 25, an adult, so you should have a good understanding of respect. I honestly don't see how you would be unable to not understand it, other than that you really just don't give a damn. I mean come on, I'm four years your junior and I get it.

That's my 50 cents worth.

Don't sick the admins on him on my behalf.  I'd rather be referred to by my name than what we are reduced to now - referring to people as "one particular blogger we all know *wink wink* here's a link to some of their articles."  That just seems silly.

 

I think "taking up so much space" is a bit of a stretch, but to each their own opinion.

 

Fun fact:  The above is known in some circles as "turning the other cheek."

 

Have a nice day.

Actually, I could delete comments or turn off the rights to comment.

Just turning off comments will be easier than all the deletions.  It will also prove that you don't care.  Sounds like a plan.

Ockham, let's not multiply it beyond necessity.

That hurt me, and I told it.
