Enough is Enough.
Naturally, thread locked.
Dante Aseroth and NerosDevil, I am apalled at your actions combined.
Not only have you dragged this dispute of petty insults and comparisons out into a five page waste of time, but also not keeping to PM's as you BOTH know you should.
You have both acted totally immaturely, disgracing not only yourselves but the forum aswell.
Dante, your smug attitude is repusive and conceited and I personally will NOT stand for it any longer. This is not a GFX forum and you will do well to remember that, your high standards and glourious reputation mean nothing because here it is, as you put it, about point of view. Your attitude of levels and your sheer greatness over the lower class is no more than clever trolling and I find it unacceptable! Its not the first time (by a loooong shot) that you have taken this attitude, but this is by far the least subtle of them all!
You could easily encourage other members and offer a few tips to help better their own work if you so desire this place to take GFX far more seriously, but instead you have persistantly refused and simply used the oppertunity to give your ego a ill-needed boost.
NerosDevil, you too should've known to keep this to PMs.
If you had a 'score to settle' it should've been done so outside of a public thread, personal insults aside, instead of engaging in an argument you should've reported any abuse. Not only that but you too have taken a simalar attitude as Dante in your competition with him - this forum isn't GFX, it is about Point of View, not everyone will like your sigs, but some will love them.
But, because of your actions here in contributing to a five page thread, you must share punishment as well as Dante.
BOTH of you are banned for one week, during this time myself and the other staff members will council to determine if further measures need to be taken.
Zach Fair, I don't know who you are, but undoubtedly you are a minion of Dantes from one of his GFX Forums', since your first two posts here have been to encourage flaming and furthering this argument I will be applying Infraction points and scencerely hope you start chatting within this community instead of helping to divide its members.
I am sad that the rivalry of two talented individuals has lead to this.
Thread Locked.
p.s.
Please address any querys or questions reguarding this mess to myself - thank you
EDIT:
In light of an Aplogetic Privite Message sent to Angel AFTER the event but BEFORE my intervention I have decided to reduce NerosDevil's ban to 24 hours for misconduct. Her behaviour was unacceptable, but it was fuelled.
