Some thoughts about been a member here on GMG

[Saul]

10 characteristics of the regular GMG member.

* He looks to make fun of other's creative work

* Takes joy in been a part of the lynch

* Systematically looks to boost his ego and self confidence by putting others down

* Uses insults , character assassination to discredit a fellow member he dislikes

* Always on the guard to turn an interesting thread into a never ending cycle of lunacy and jokes

* Cries foul when the attacked fights back to protect his dignity from a mob of attackers

* Sees anyone that posts his art or music as arrogant and attention seeker, that helps him to justify his awful and immature behavior.

* Sees nothing wrong with been disrespectful and immature on a constant basis.

* If he doesn't like something  or someone , he seeks to create an atmosphere of animosity either by attacking the individual's wisdom, stature, and abilities.

* Uses this website as a means to an end by entertaining himself by constantly seeking to abuse and disrespect a fellow member he decided that he doesn't like.

So many might wonder why would someone like me would continue to stay here even though I was attacked here by so many members in such awful manner?

The answer for this question is the following:

I really don't care about those people that behave this way towards me. I don't know them, and I couldn't care less about what they think or not think of me.

I am here in order to show my creative output for those that might be interested .

And even if there is no one that interested I do reserve the right to post.

If anyone doesn't like this. Tough,.

Just  wanted to convey these thoughts.

This thread is locked.

As someone who has had to plough through more of your posts than I care to recall; without irony or invective, I can honestly say that most of what you wrote, accusing others, I could accurately relate straight back to you and your behaviour here.

I will not go through it point by point. But it could almost be a pen portrait of your on-line persona.

If you want to display your art here, then you have to expect people to say what they think about it, that is their right.

However, it would be a real benefit here if one or two posters who simply turn up so as to be unpleasant on any thread that Saul starts could scroll past his topics and IGNORE him and his doings.

Well, the unfortunate part of all this is that many of the things you list are perfectly true. Much to our shame, I might add. However, you (among others) aren't entirely blameless in creating the sorts of situations that bring out the dogs. Sometimes you are blameless, for example in the Art thread. Often you aren't. I would love to see you (and others) give a minute's thought to posting some of the things you post. Apparently that is way too much to ask in most cases. So, we mods will keep defending you all, even though sometimes we would rather box your ears.
