He sent me this in an email. the latest wallpaper I did had some grafitti in it that I drew, he said it was a font. Listen to this dumbass little kid try to explain why he thinks its a font..
"HAHA YOURE STILL USING FONTS =]
NO WAY YOU CAN MANIPULATE THE SIZE OF BOTH OF EM WITHOUT PIXEL DAMAGE YOU LAME ASS. SO SUCK MY COCK AND CALL ME DADDY.
TA TA LAME JUGGERNAUT."
Does anyone else realize that he is saying is completely idiodic.
Cant scale down an image and keep quality? hah. Fucking kids. +++++++++++ static5.com flameboyant.com

devart sucks from what i can see... i can only get on for 20 minutes before the servers overload. (devStaff if you reading this... BUY NEW SERVERS!!!) And the 20 minutes I have there are spent loading 2 pages and I have A/DSL. WTF!? Oh and to add to the fire...
----------- Glitched, Miriku, and static5, you are all cockless assholes that couldnt make a skin if your lives depended on t. I am your dadda! ----------
Enjoy!
/me grabs some popcorn and yells "GET READY FOR SOME ACTION!"
man..... they do have new servers.... they're just trying to work out some problems before they switch..... if you'd try visiting devart and waiting that extra few minutes for a story to load, you'd know that..... DeviantArt doesn't suck.... they're just having problems right now.... and they'll be back stronger and faster than ever soon....
your is possesive. the abbreviation for "you are" is usually "you're".
and periods go inside of quotation marks, not after. but that leads to mistakes in source code, like then just type "./configure startup.sh." in which case the user might make a mistake and add the period to the command.
Static5: Ignore the idiot. Do us all a favour by kindly refraining from reposting his drivil in this forum. Do not lower your self to his level. Now if you would all kindly STFU, I think we can safely say:
waaaait a second, wasnt there some static guy out on the blackcusto boards? is this the same dude?
i remember someone there did a whole rant on "we dont want miriku go away like you did before", but i dont recall if it was static or someone else . . .
Heh, I had this whole long thing written out with some advice to Static5 about how he should be quiet for the next 5 or 6 years untill he realizes what a dork he was at this age and how, given his abilities with and grasp of contemporary graphic design, he really shouldn't have an ego at all and whatnot, but I'm not gonna post it. It's almost a guarantee he won't listen and will reply with some sorta "fuck you asshole, I'm cooler than all of you" business that's laughable at best and mearly proves the point I was trying to make. Not gonna waste time.
Either way, it's at least reasuring that kids like him either grow out of their weird little "self important" phaze when they get older or turn into bitter used car dealers and don't affect our lives in the least. =)
The strange thing is, I go somewhere, and wierd shit happens. I do not provoke it.
Look.
I came here, posted a wallpaper, then some kid tried to tell me something I DREW in there, was a font, and I didnt draw it. Then he sent me and email explaining to me how he has the font, but would not share it.
I made a post, and put the copy of his sent email to me in it. Then everyone goes all apeshit. How does that work? And how is it my fault?
On devart, I got linked up on the frontpage. Then everyone starts bitching about how THEY didnt get linked up.
I realize that kids fathom's age think theyre so wise that they can make spelling mistakes and it doesnt really matter, but considering fathom's grasp of the english language, he really has no reason to have an ego. Im just glad that kids like fathom eventually grow up and stop posting.
Static5: it has a lot to do with the way you carry on. It's not like everyone just woke up one day and decided not to like you, it took something to get to that point. That something is the wierd arrogance and egotistical attitude that frankly none of us understand. It'd be bad enough if you were actually hot shit and acted that way but to be somewhere in the middle/bottom area of talent in the world of design (don't sweat it, it's not that you're not good at stuff, it's just that there's a lot of people way better than you.. not an insult at all, just a fact) and to act that way really rubs people funny I think. I've often observed you bragging about "doing this for a living" and "being a professional graphic designer" and whatnot. Thing is it's nothing to brag about dude. A lot of us have been doing this professionaly for YEARS. There are literally hundreds of thousands of people in the United States alone that do this very thing for a living and have been for decades, you very rarely see them walkin' around like some kinda peacock. You work for a TINY firm by the name of flameboyant (yes my man, you guys are very very small... not a bad thing, just a thing.. there's a shitload of firms out there that pull in a billion+ dollars a year) and you seem to wear you're employment badge like it's some sorta goddamn medal. I think the thing you've gotta start realizing is that there really are a million people out there doin' it 1000x better than you'll ever be able to. No matter how long you do it and no matter how good you think you are at something like this there's always that many people who make you look like a joke (this is something everyone needs to realize btw, not just yer silly ass). The better you understand that fact the more humbled you become and better a person you'll be. I think you'll find that when you decide to drop the goofy childish attitude people will like you a whole lot more... trully.
*** by the way, this is a sincere post. I wasn't gonna write all this stuff but I figured you might actually listen. If you wanna start up with the "I didn't do anything like that" crap then save your words.. you know what's what and so does everyone else... there's no need to defend your pride or whatever... it's just not worth the effort. ***
Haha, yes Mr. Krazy you are right... given my 3rd grade understanding of the language I got mah ego pretty much in check.. (my 3rd grade understanding of a lot of other things helps that too). I think when I get older I'm gonna be that worthless old man that does nothing but yell at kids on my street for driving so fast. I won't have any nuggets of wisdom to pass along, any worthwhile storys to spark the imagination of the next generation, nothin'... so be it, at least I can say I got laid a good amount when I was younger.. that's worth somethin' I reckon.. =)
1. Posting such as "XXX is an idiot" on the msgboard is rarely a smart thing to do. 2. At least in Finland, posting other people's emails on public places such as this, is illegal. Not to mention, kinda childish. I mean, if he'd been spamming you for ages, I'd understand, but not this.. 3. I never visit personal websites that I saw on a newspost on some site, posted by the owner of that personal website. Why? Figure it out..
I really wasn't even planning to continue with this thread, but then I looked at your deviantart journal.
"It just seems really funny to me. If I sucked so bad...why would i be on the front page of Deviantart, Wastedyouth, Customize.org, Endeffect and others?"
Wait.. oh yea. You posted the stuff yourself, and / or you know the people who run the site.
Actually since we're on the topic of egos and I'm not sleepy yet I think I'll go on a bit..
I think the only reason I haven't leaped out of a window yet is stupidity. I usually chalk up my distaste for the idea of suicide to a love for life but I really think it might be because I'm stupid as hell. I mean I've got some things goin' for me (not a bad lookin' kid.. 'bout normal I'd say, cool gf and all, etc..) but for christ's sake not a day goes by I don't fuck up like 50 important things. It's a miracle I still remember to breathe properly. I think today I can count at least 30 things I said to people I shouldn't have (everything from foul ass language when inappropriate to farting near someone's desk.. well.. I guess farting isn't actually talking unless.. nevermind). I missed 4 "appointments" today I should have gone to. I spent a bunch of money I don't have on shit I don't need (I do that everyday). I was wearing two pairs of boxer shorts all day without knowing it (I just thought mah undies were crooked). My girlfriend was nekid a couple of hours ago and I actually asked her if she wanted to go grab a bite to eat (ladies, if that ain't a mood killer I don't know what is) and now she's goin' to sleep without my ass. I spilled Sunny Delight all over the carpet and tried to clean it up with old shirts. I forgot to return my videos which are 2 weeks late to the store, again. I laughed and blew snot on my food at dinner. I almost burned my office to the ground by leavin' a lit cigarette on the desk next to some papers while I went to the kitchen. I could go on forever...
Heh, yeah.. for a kid like me to have an ego at all would be next to impossible.. =)
all i am going to say is that i would never have noticed that "mearly" thing if not for the crazykelt :P
well, not all. stupid list, i'm so down on this: i got on academic probation cause i dropped one more class then i can drop and still be full time, spent 3 hours jury rigging a laptop floppy drive after stepping on it, lost every game of pool i played tonight, introduced myself to someone japaneese and instead of "hajimemashite" said "jikoshokai" earning a you-fucking-retard look, definitely own more guitars then i should at my salary .. . . eh, cant think of any more. i'll post more when i'm sober :)
Id have to say that you have some very good points in the past posts. But can you explain to me, what I should do about this? Please. Do I NOT defend myself ever? It seems that someone always comes at me first, then I retaliate, and all of a sudden everyones all bitching at me, and the idiot who started it all is just sitting back laughing.
I just dont fucking understand it.
Id say that 90% of the devart kiddies just pump out lame looking stuff, and talk shit. Then there are a group of people who dont suck, and dont just talk shit.
Same thing here. I post some work, to get some feedback, and all of a sudden everyones bitching about my fucking ego. I dont do whatever it is on purpose mind you. If I do try to put myself above everyone else, its purley unintentional. But it seems like ive been fucking outcast from the damn community, cause everytime I post ANY-FUCKING-THING everyones yelling at me about some shit or another.
Yea, MAYBE IT IS all my fault, maybe I am some egotistical bastard that always talks shit and see's things all assbackwards, but maybe its not how it is.
MAYBE there are some dumbfucks on every community site that provoke this shit and turn people against others.
I personally would have to agree with the later, as I pointed out above.
Now please, without trying to tell me i have 'sand in my vagina' or spewing some other form of ignorance, explain to me, in detail, what it was that I did wrong here. Please.
for one you need to know when to walk away from something. . .you probably shouldn't have even bothered to take that guy seriously about the font, and most definately you need to let this go because it's dragging on rather long
always remember you can't please everyone or you'll die trying and never actually be happy
in all honesty, who cares what everyone else thinks. . .art comes from within you, be true to that. If others dig it then that's cool, if not at least you are happy with it
I was going to start a new thread, but I think this is the place for it...
Topic: Matrix9180 is a fucking idiot!!!
Message: Matrix9180 is a fucking idiot. he is such a lamer, look at this email he sent himself from: to: topic: test body: test test test test test. ok, this shit works
what a fucking lamer. no shit that shit don't work... wtf man! please don't flame me TA TA LAME JUGGERNAUT! :-)
Static5: to be honest man the kind of attitude you're showing right now makes a WHOLE lot more sense and shows maturity. When you act like this I can talk to you any day of the week. I'm sure you know there's pretty much a solid division in the skinning community (and a lot of other communities, online and off), the retards and everyone else. The retards often vary in artistic ability. Some are actually decent artists, others couldn't operate an etch-a-sketch properly, but they all have one thing in common... shitty pride. They showcase their work and ideas as if they're doing the world a favor and if anyone presents any sort of opposition they attack. Whether or not the opposition is justified makes no difference, they attack anyways.. it's that pride thing.. they can't seem to shake it. As much as one would like to ignore the retards it gets pretty difficult. They involve themselves in these drawn out flame wars that are just about as dorky as the day is long...
The people who aren't retarded are usually, but not always, better artists and don't subscribe to the whole foolish pride thing. They do what they do without the aid of public opinion... it just makes no difference to them. I've learned over the years that the cat who's usually better at a given skill than anyone else in the room is the one who doesn't say he is. It's a lot like the old saying in high school, those who talk about gettin' laid are probably the ones who've never even seen a girl naked, those who don't bother to talk about it all the time are prolly the ones gettin' some nightly... I mean here's a quick example of a retard versus a regular cat:
(kid_1) This peice sucks, you stole that style from such and such...
(retard) FUCK YOU ASSHOLE. I know the guy allright ??? Stupid cocksucker, I'd like to see your wonderfull peice you joke of an artist you...
-- While kid_1 was clearly out of line mr. retard did nothing but validate kid_1's comment and at the same time make himself look like a moron.
Here's that same scenario with a normal cat.
(kid_1) This peice sucks, you stole that style from such and such...
(normal_cat) Well I can't say much about the peice "sucking", that's objective.. however I will tell you that such and such and I worked on that style together and I kinda dig how it came out.. heh, anyways.. thanks for the comment sweetie.
-- It's got a different kinda tone to it all together. You essentially said the same thing as the retard did above but in this instance you didn't yell at anyone, didn't talk shit to anyone, really just didn't allow some 14 year old to make a difference in your life. Also the added "sweetie" at the end is a nice little sting on the way out... not enough for the kid or others to start shit over, but just enough to kind of pet him on the head and say "uhhh.. oki doki kiddo".
Now you've gotta admit scott that in a lot of your recent comments here and at devart you were talkin' down to people directly. I know you say you didn't mean to but the truth of the matter is that at least in some instances you did. Now don't get me wrong my friend, I'm guilty of the exact same thing on numerous occasions. It's not that you trully felt you were "high and mighty" but it's prolly more along the lines of some kid talkin' shit on you, you going to look at their work and other's, and then gettin' kinda pissed that a kid with a carrot's understanding of art had the nerve to talk that way to yah... I can dig it man, not a thing in the world "dickish" or "egocentrical" about feeling that, it's all in how you deal with those kids though.. Instead of letting it piss you off maybe try and laugh at it... fuck it.. laugh at them.. they deserve it, but keep it to yerself. You know you would have gotten an ENTIRELY different reaction out of the devart kids in relation to the article about your new site design if the only response you even gave was something along the lines of:
"Look guys, I'm proud of my new site.. as minimal as it seems it actually took a lot of hard work to get it together and it's something I want other people to see. If yah dig it, cool.. if yah don't, cool.. but I think we've all got better things to do with our day than attack eachother for something as trivial as a new site making the news at deviantart. Anyways, I'll keep an eye on this thread and if anyone's got any questions or anything please feel free to post 'em here.. I won't be responding to any goofy shit though, it's just a website guys.. calm down.. heh"
And to be honest with you I'd almost bet money that's pretty how you felt about the whole thing, but yah let the retards get to yah and in turn joined their ranks.
heh, shit man.. you're a talented artist, you've got the hard part licked.. please just start acting like one around these parts and I'm 100% sure you'll get the respect you deserve. =)
*** now that's as honest as I can answer your question ***
Fathom. I read through your whole post, with a very open mind. And once again, you are probably correct.
I dont understand it, I dont like it, but for some reason, I get really pissed off about things very easily sometimes.
Im sure if you looked through my past youll see that, as I've acted different about the pretty much same situations. Like someone talking shit on my work, and I just say hey, thanks for the nice comments man. But on other times ill be like ...
/me slowly fills the envelop with the letterbomb and writes out the kid from <a href="http://www.whatever.com's">www.whatever.com's[/a] address as I found it on his DNS information page...heheh....mail time.
Ya know?
Ive decided that something has to change. For anyone who I have offended on purpose or by accident, I apologize. I dont agree with what all of you said, but Im sorry that it came to such an argument.
Instead of getting more pissed and yelling at Fathom for telling me how it is, I thank you.
I have something new in the works. Im very very proud of it, and its going to change everything about me.
When I release the new REVOLT, you will all understand.
Fathom. Thank you for going in depth and explaining it to me how it is, instead of how some of the kids up in here do it, and just 'fuck you bitch etcetera!' You really did make a difference.
lol. this is damn hilarious. and fathom, u the guy with all the websites that are either never up (splash screen saying "coming soon") or not working in general? ;) are you also the same guy who used (emphasis on USED) to make kick ass litestep themes?
Kazuya_: heh.. yeah man.. same guy. It's not that the websites were never up though it's that they were only a neverending collection of splash screens. And yeah, same fathom from the LS days of past. I've pretty much all but dropped outta this scene (like most cats I knew back then) but I still poke around here and there. =)
might i add that i have read every one of your posts and i'd like to inform you that you are, in fact, not funny... at all. nor are you the clever internet ninja you think you are.
This thread makes me laugh. ha ha OK, done now. I only posted to this to say hi to all the cool cats I used to talk to back in the day, maybe one day I'll get back on my feet and start talkin' again... so, hi fathom, shinter, miriku, china, door, and any others I might've missed I'll be back eventually ~nameless

Heya nameless. I just started goin' back into IRC a little bit and it's pretty funny.. lotta old folks still around.. lotta new ones.. Stop by #skinnerz sometime before I take another 6 months away from the puter. =)
ok, so ive read parts of this thread, and static5, this was completely unneccessary. seriously.
People like the dude who sent that mail are people you should ignore. A lot. Just delete the godammn mail and get it over with, the community will always be lik that. it was utterly unneccessary to start a whole fucking new thread about this. I dont think any of us care about it, and you KNOW people here dont really like you much :P
oh, and dont be so fucking cocky. Nobody likes people acting like that, never. Yeah, youre pretty good with gfx, but you dont have to tell everyone. Theres this word called "humble" you know.
i still cant forget the script kiddie comment off blackcusto. That was seriously fucking genius :P
-AdamTT- [Custo Staff] Not stupid, just misunderstood
you know, the truly leet NEVER say they're leet... but anyway, i always say, that if ppl always flame you in msg boards, there's a reason. and i don't think the problem lies with everyone else. but that's just IMHO.
~cooper~
you have a right to be an idiot. you are now abusing that right.
Man, I'm not trying to offend anyone, but for some reason this thread had a real Dawson's Creek feel.

Static5, why are you such a bitch? You just sat there and complained about all the kids in here talking smack about other peoples work, when you do it to other people. Fucking hypocrite...
Why the fuck did you have to bring this thread back? now I'm gonna reply, and someone else will reply to me, and we'll be stuck with this thread on the top 10 for another week
why people insist on bashing other sites is beyond me. you dont see people at wincustomize bashing customize, nor do you see people at deviantart bashing wincustomize. yet, you see people here bashing other sites...why?
...the admins are not racing towards anything therefore why are the users? did we all forget that, whether you like it or not, this is one community that just so happens to span a multitude of sites? bashing one site definitely will not solve any problems.
funny thing about it is that if you want to bash a site and then end up getting your way, so that it closes and you are left with the one site you like, you will find that the same problems that exist[ed] on that other site will eventually crawl their way into the one you love[d].

I found this in someones profile, I just want to let you all know what I think, Static you didn't have to make such a big deal about all this filter the emails from Glitched into your trash. That would of saved alot of trouble. And as the flaming of deviantart. They provide a service, its the people who use it that are lame, not all of them, but a fair few. They also seem to have a target audiance. Its like saying Tupac sux, just coz you prefer Slipknot or System of a Down. They aren't really compatible are they.
From the modem through the phone line off the router nothing but net
Get a clue kids. And a dictionary. Have the schools really slid that far?
Abusive, unsolicited e-mail is lame (yes, it's spam) and if the recipient wants to push the issue he can get the sender's ISP to deny service. So think before you send someone an e-mail telling them they "suck cock". Mommy and Daddy won't be pleased when they can't get online because you have a potty mouth. If I get unsolicited, ABUSIVE e-mail it goes right to postmaster@sender'sISP. I reccomend you all do the same. It's funny how some gimpy little goofball who wouldn't say "boo" to you face to face get's all bad and tough once he opens his outlook express. Give me a break. *chuckle* It's pathetic. And don't think because someone has a posted e-mail address here it give you free licsense to mail them crap. Someone will eventually make your life difficult if you act like a moron.
And hey yeah, those e-mail filters do work. Get a life.
