Whats up with this??

November 15, 2003 5:06:06 AM from WinCustomize ForumsWinCustomize Forums
Take a look at this https://www.wincustomize.com/skins.asp?library=1&SkinID=3173 and read some of those comments, you would think people would offer some constructive criticism instead of one word, UGLY. That is just ridiculous > How is this poor guy supposed to get any better with this kind of treatment?

yes there are some really ignorant comments, though simple, but what can you expect from simple minds...

I think/feel that it should be presented in BOLD type that commenting and rating is a privildge and not a given right so that people udnerstand that if they make a game out of it then it can and will be taken away without pause.

very cheezy of the few....

from what I can understand of the foreign comments, most of them appear positive... but it just looks like they didn't rate too highly. A pity about the rest though.
It's certainly different, and at least an original... not a clone of someone else's skin.
Mommy always said, "If you ain't got something nice to say"...... you know the rest

The comments are pretty pointless...but not specifically 'offensive'.

Needless to say, a comment's true value stems from its origin, not merely its content.

In this case, perhaps it's a matter of empty vessels making the most sound.

No-one 'should' be discouraged by comments of little substance and import....

As most of you are fairly new, some of these types of comments might appear really bad. Venture into the past and see some skins that were put up about a year ago and you will find what bad is.A lot of them were removed as there were to mush swearing and tasteless things in them. But some of the less tasteless comments still remain and are far worse than UGLY.

Leos comment was decent toward this person, along with a few others before I made this thread. Just made me a little upset, so I decided restraint was in order for me. And thank you all for stepping up on this one much appreciated.

WOM, yes there was some comments of old that were, mmm, anyway...

It just twisted me that someone would actually post a comment "One Word - Ugly" then again that is three words so not only was it an ignorant thing to say but proves they can not count either

must be from Florida

WOM....that's just another utterance from the brain-dead.....not worthy of the effort of removal....

We do remove comments....but they are usually somewhat more extreme than 'this is bullshit'.

Their removal has often been accompanied by the poster's removal....just to keep them company...

Normally, if someone has an issue with a comment on their own work/s and contacts an admin it'll be removed for them....

I think everybody has their own vision of what beauty is...and the fact that someone took the time and effort to make a skin...even if it isn't in the taste of everyone... deserves respect and the fact that it's offered here for download shows that there's a good heart in there to what's to judge?

Exactly Well done _footsie_

Yes WOM, that was uncalled for but as I am still relatively new here, I didn't see that post, and if I did I would do the same thing, bring it to everyones attention. Nothing wrong with that skin, looked excellent to me Jafo you are right, these comments shouldn't be taken to heart. Wasn't even my work, but I have to agree with IP sometimes it's hard to ignore
