--- Quote from: ark_ader on October 09, 2015, 04:04:41 am ---Being downright naughty about it (which I am guilty of once or twice) should be taken as fair game.  You can always ignore comments as long as it is not slanderous.

Is it fair game for the person to respond in a naughty manner as well?

Heh.

l've always felt a person's reaction to feedback requests shows whether they were really looking for honest opinions or whether they were looking for validation for their choices.

That's fair but I'm not talking about civil constructive criticism.  I'm asking about the naughty responses that Ark mentioned.  It seems to me that if feedback is given in a sarcastic manner one can expect the reaction to be the same.

Oh. Well, I have more respect for posters who can roll with the punches than those who fly off the handle. Remember the great Kaneda Wars of the Fall of '13?

Me too but I have tremendous respect for forum members who can give thoughtful civil feedback.

Agreed.

BadMouth:
In the time I've been here there has been a shift in the Project Announcements threads from basically having a build log with requests and responses for things related to the build to banter and conversation, often veering far away from the build.  It annoyed me at first, but I got used to it. 
I blame Rick & Griff/Maximus.

It still annoys me when people post more pics of their own build in thread than the OP has of the build the thread is supposed to be about.

Good insight. I don't disagree with it. Especially the second point about people posting their own pictures in other people's threads. It's okay if they're showing someone how they did something if requested , but I've seen it used when people basically say "hey you stole my idea", which I find annoying.

yotsuya:
Also, I really miss restorations. The first things that really attracted me to this site weren't the MAME builds, they were the restorations being done.

harveybirdman:
The proper way to show examples in someone else's build thread is by link.

I love seeing restorations as well.
