I'd like to propose some new rules for this place after having just wasted almost two hours sifting through mindless drivel.

1) Quit whinging about how you're not getting the attention or recognition you deserve. Whingers don't deserve either.

2) Copyright discussions are pointless and a waste of everyone's time. We all know where we stand and that opinions on the matter differ wildly, so there's never going to be a solution. Protect your own work, and leave it at that.

3) Leave the dramatics to daytime soaps or private conversations. Nobody really cares if you're feeling a bit blue. Unless it's a nice neutral blue with a little gray and funky rounded buttons.

4) No more character attacks, unless you want to attack me. I thrive on misinformation.

5) Stop trying to convince everyone you know better than everyone else, regardless of subject. You don't. I do.

6) Anyone found to be using the site more for flame wars and amateur dramatics than they do for skinning and desktop customization should be shown the door. Everyone should start skinning somewhere, and a door can never have enough handles.

7) Help the newbies. Some of them are only puppies, and they're likely to soil the rug once in a while.

8) No more posts about how treetog/mormegil/adni18 hasn't created enough new stuff this week. Sometimes they sleep.

9) Answer any questions about certain competing skinning solutions with the silence they deserve. You can only scream 'It's a hack!' so many times at a brick wall.

10) Stop posting new rules. It just confuses things.
