Insimenator and isa being made fun of.
lilys:
Hi all,
Yesterday while brownsing online i've discovered a site known as the garden of shadows making fun about our sites calling it worst sims 2 sites.Lots of creations on there have been targeted mine included.
Have a look here http://www.digitalperversion.net/gardenofshadows/index.php?topic=11342.0
to see how it started and here:http://www.digitalperversion.net/gardenofshadows/index.php?topic=22.11310
for others insim members creations subjects to their harsh critics if these are real critics.But be warned,the comments are pretty offending.In my opinion these were heartless,cruel comments but to them these were just opinions.You don't have to cruel,insensitive to say you don't like other people stuff.
Well no question that any of them understood where i'm coming from since I critiziced their site so they all jump on me calling me a kid and moaning.So now i can't even defend myself,have to let them insult me?Well dream on.I wouldn't be moaning in the fisrt place if they hadn't started this sick thread.Even the owner didn't see anything wrong in the comments of her members.Well she has to stick up with her members isn't she?
I don't want to play their game and bitch other people creations.And I don't think the admin would agree for us to have a shot at theirs creations.We won't bow down to their level.I just thought our sites should know about them.After all since we are being judged we should know and have a say in this.

Calm down,there are a lot of melon heads all over the net that are going to pick things apart and be total smeg heads. Just because they have a rotten opinion about something doesn't mean that opinion holds any water, now does it? Just because someone screams, omg, "Your mother wears army boots!" does not make it true. Let it roll off of your back because at the end of the day, what do these people mean to you?? Anything? No? Then it doesn't matter.

True but it's so annoying.I hate having my day spoiled because some creep talked rubish about me or the things i love.But it's ok,i will forget about it eventually.After all you are right,i don't know any of this "worship the dead people" so they can just go and jump to the death for all I care. >:D

Too sappy, too whiny, too many kids, too many newbies, not enough creations, mods not good enough...I've heard a bunch said about our community. You have to ask youself a few questions (imho).
For example: Does this matter to me? Do I like it here? Do I enjoy creating and sharing here? Do I really want to invest my time and energy in other people's negativity?
I visit many sites. I get info from many. When I encounter dissension I say my peace or leave it alone if I feel it is unproductive. Those of us who enjoy inSim & ISA will keep them vibrant regardless of who points & laughs or criticizes.
I know the creations and mods I value on both sites & that's enough for me. If they criticize any work of yours, my advice would be to make one of two choices:
1. Dissect what they say about your work, use the useful advice and toss the trash-talk.
OR
2. Ignore them completely. True you might miss a pearl of wisdom or two but you have to ask whether wading in a dumpster to search for one is really worth it.
& Before any one site accuses me of calling them a dump--that statement refers to anywhere you feel uncomfortable. I am a member there as well as other places, however I don't participate in raging flame debates or useless critiques, no matter where they are held. If I have an opinion I state it. If people aren't listening I don't waste my keystrokes.
Wouldn't matter who says what to me really, I like it here just fine :) .

But do you like what you make? That's the important question. If you don't think anything they said had merit, then just shrug it off. If you read some things that you feel might have had merit, then take it into consideration and move on. What they said was just opinions, no matter how hateful they said it. A lot of people use the relative anonyminity of the internet as an excuse to be rude and spiteful as they otherwise would not be in real life. If they don't like what you make, then they don't have to download any of it, and if you don't like what they say, then dont visit there.
Yes, we have a lot of people sharing stuff here who are just starting out, but not everyone has to like everything and not everyone can be great right from the start. Doesn't mean we can't be supportive. People improve. I know a few people all over the community (not just GoS) who started out rather rough and are now amazing creators. *shrug* Life is full of people who don't know how to give proper constructive criticism.
