This is a funny little blog post the author of Goblins (which is a pretty good webcomic, btw) put up today: http://www.goblinscomic.com/fourteen-ways-to-spot-a-bad-critic/

Well, being a good critic (I hope) I'd point out that it's alittle hard to read withte white text on black background. Then again that could just be my moniter!

14 very good points made though. It's a bit of a shame people don't apply these principles more often on forums. By no means am I saying that our fellow BoLSers are telling each other that their work is 'teH Suxx0rs' or whatever equivalent internet slang they chose, but it is a owrryingly common feature of the internet at large. Possibly becoming smaller and less vocal as the first generation to have had the internet for their entire live are coming to maturity, but it is still there and I fear will be for as long as immature humans exhist.

If such activity does exist here in BoLSworld, it's in the Rules and Army Lists forums. Thankfully we have a good group of regulars who seem to be able to put people to rights quicklly and curteously.

I try to post positive comments in the Modelling and Painting forum more, and give advice with any negative criticsm. That said, it is all too tempting to just post bad stuff when you are in a bad mood. In that case I tend to just browse and not post. Much safererer that way :p
