Yea, its a problem to me.

So like I said and I'll stick to the point of my original post mitosis which you seemed to have ignored and just decided to argue with Vel. I used two people who weren't GFX Mods on this site and were doing just fine for themselves in their shops.

1. Being Axcel

2. Being Loki

Yes Loki is a GFX mod now, after he got even better at his trade. There's a shop for Icons that isn't stickied and he seems to be doing fine for himself. So really those stickied threads ya can draw attention but that's why I said someone should browse all the artists first. It's like buying a car man, know how much you're willing to spend then browse the availability, don't just go for the first thing you see.

thanks for at least considering what im trying to say here, as it seems everyone want to make me the enemy instantly, while not even giving a serious consideration to what i've been saying.

I never tried to make you the enemy, I presented a fair example to you as why I thought you were wrong. Which you overlooked or didn't even bother to read after you had stated staff isn't quick enough to get things done >.>

But onto the matter further about abuse of power, Vel didn't do it and neither did any of the other GFX Mods... Heero the ADMIN did, so I'm sure you feel kinda stupid after all that arguing to find out you were absolutely wrong. Here's my tip for you from here on out. Instead of jumping the gun and complain like you did, maybe pm staff about it? Ask around, maybe even ask a GFX Mod who has a Stickied thread and see if they stickied it. That will save everyone the hassle of having to argue and get warnings and bother Heero to come in here.

So can we lock this up and move on?

You guys seem to forget, Axcel has been making signatures a lot longer than Vel and more recognized by older members.. and trust me, when newbies see colors, they come running. So he is recognized and has quite a few sells in the past and his customer's loyalty and referrals are what make the difference. Also, I understand the creator of this threads point, even if a little. While sticking the thread may be a perk as Heero said... It is still nerve racking when someone is rushing through trying to find a sig maker and they only look at the stickies or go to the referral for Axcel. Leaving only the curious to venture into some of the other creators, that is what I think the creator was saying. Although the argument seems to be over now, I lean slightly in the favor of the creator of this thread. While sticking the thread is a great perk for GFX mods, it makes it rough for newer people to get their work recognized.

Any who I felt this was handled poorly by the creator, instead of making a complaint. The best thing to do is steal the customers. Make a watermark on the signature you're making and give samples to random people and promise them a REALLY good version should they buy your product. That is one easy way to handle the problem... Who knows you could get as many customer as Axcel.

66% Warning. Sorry Suta.

I am removing Vel's 33 percent. Normally Id give him a worse punishment but after reading this thread.

He used excessive cursewords. But did not bait or flame. If you read, he uses his curse words as exaggerations, not as attacks. He adds it for pure shock value.

Like "Fucking boring" is just VERY boring. or "Fucking cold" is just very cold. We dont approve of the use of the word, thus I will ask him to refrain from cursing too much. But he did not use it to bait or flame, from what I saw.

Im just going to drop my Argument.

If the Admin did it as a perk, well then there nothing i can really complain about now.
Its unfair, but whatever. If he felt it was a perk, then forget about it.

Lock please, I won't bring this topic back up.
