Hmmm....

I only now understand the reason behind this thread.

Trov, you are in the wrong place mate...I don\'t think any of the regular forum dwellers has anything against your work at all. Quite the opposite in fact. :D

I\'ve been having a Conversation (PM) with Christoph and it turns out he\'s been getting some hatemail about his painting.

All I can say is gutless bastards.

Hopefully he might be coming over to the Uk Gamesday (if not this year than perhaps next.)

I am afraid I am not very alert...

I only started to \'get the drift\' after moderating a few comments from people who I would normally not expect to be so....shall we say...downright hurtful:(

It\'s pretty amazing (in a negative sense) how some people can take this hobby so seriously that they send hatemail to other artists (and all sorts of pathetic things I\'ve heard about)! :( It\'s only toy soldiers after all...

I guess I don\'t understand. All the minis seemed very highly rated. I had given tens to a few. All the comments are nice.

What is the complaint?

If there are PRIVATE Messages don\'t they show who they are from?

I was a bit shocked about seeing this too! Is it not in some way, some sort of tribute at kaple?

Besides Trovarion worked long and hard on this model and didn\'t copy it exactly the same. He just used a similar outline.

It seems that some French people (and some well known amongst them) are having a hard time coping with this miniature. Do they think they own the right of making cool mini\'s or something????

This is overall a friendly community over here (okay on the forums more so then on the Cmon voting and piccie part) but if someone cannot behave like a civilized person then by all means F*ck off!

Sorry, but these things get on my nerve!:mad:

I\'ve gotten some VERY negative PM\'s in the past as well, quite personally insulting, and it did get to me for a while, but in the end there is nothing to do but feel sorry for these people and move on...

This world will always include jealous and hateful people, the real goal is just not to become one :)

Well that\'s just because you are an egotistical stupid git with bad teeth.

(that\'s a joke. I hope it was taken as such. I am in awe of your skill and I\'ve never actually seen your teeth.)

Hmmm...

There is not much CMON can do about PMs without removing the facility altogether. It\'s either that or a team of multi-lingual moderators:rolleyes:

However, if insulting or libelous comments slip through the net, which they can, given the circumstances, they can now be removed.

lol no worries Vince, I got it ;)

Yep, nothing really to do about it, the PM system is too valuable to give up over a couple peoples hurt feelings, even if I was one of them

Finn, how about a team of multi-lingual ninjas! that\'d fix things right fast

agreed! sowwy... (only came to understand it fully today as well)

EDIT: oh and btw. the hatemails came over my e-mail account (delted them right away after a few lines, sorry right now I\'m a bit voulnerable because of some events this year), the PMs here on CMON were...let\'s say \"discuraging\", but not directly agressive, have to say that as well.

thanks to Dragonsreach for your support (over PM ;) ).

Oh and next year I think I\'ll come to the UK, this year would be too tight. Looking forward to meet you all!

i would really like to know what got into these french noblemen who p*ss champagne and sh*t caviar.
angry because his mini ranked before yours? could\'t take as many golden ones home as you wished?
starting to bitch around because you are not satisfied with a result certainly shows sportsmanship.
worst about this is you can be sure these people would NEVER show the guts to give him all that crap face to face, they waited until GD was over to comment about his miniature (or got personal, whatever) ... completely pathetic

you got my backing and my respect for that miniature man
