What is art?
Do you really believe it's actually worth anything in this world?
Paint thrown on a canvas, with petty remarks about it's supposed "meaning". A sculpted statue of the human form.
What does this serve us?
If you all are so adament about reaching some sort of height with your artistry, why not sit back and think about the true meaning of this little "hobby" of yours.
Is it serving any purpose?
Do we really need you?
Does this forum really use your time properly? Are you gaining anything out of these 2nd rate critiques from these strangers on an internet forum?
Sit back and think about your life for a while, is it really worth the time?
Smile

Ok, I havn't said anything up to this point, but I've just lost my patience with you. I know I'm supposed to just ignore people like you and not add fuel to the fire, but I just have to vent this ONE TIME.
GET THE FUCK OUT OF OUR FORUM. NOW.
You are unwanted, and you obviously are here to just irritate people. Sure I can ignore you, but just seeing your fucking name when I enter the forum makes me angry(which is what you wanted, so congrats).
I know we don't normally ban people, but I think this one case is an exception we have to make. I cannot stand the thought of people like this jerk here ruining our beloved forum.
Please, Enayla, Sumaleth, and Dhabih. We HAVE to start cleaning up this place, or it's only to get worse. Some of our best talents already left, and probably more will leave. |

Without artistic vision, this world would be a repetitive, square shaped everything, dull, grey, loin cloth wearing place.
But no...artists serve no purpose at all. Get a clue buddy  |

Okay Happy Man, you win. We artists are a complete waste of time, and we contribute nothing to society. We waste alot of time on this forum writing to each and critiquing worthless 'art'.
What would you have us do instead?
(this oughta be good) |

Come back when you can ask the right question.

Sigh. "Happy Man" is obviously posting threads to get a reaction from us, why give him that pleasure? Is it really that hard to just ignore him? I can manage to do it with much ease. Just pretend he's an N'Sync fan, that should make it easier..
"Bye bye bye...BYEBYEBYE!" .. ugh. :P |

of course its worth our time. art is what we like and its what we do.
"Do you really believe it's actually worth anything in this world?"
it sure is worth something. art(and design) is all around us. they're the cars you drive, the houses you live in, the buildings you work at, the movies and tv shows you watch, the computer games you play. it's everywhere and with out it the world would be extremely boring.
and one thing we really dont need is you. why dont you sit back and think about your life. is it really worth it? Does coming to this forum really use your time properly? Are you gaining anything out of coming here and annoying us?
i'm sure you'll come up with some cunning remark or come back.

Imbecile...its evident that your brain most have been totally deformed at birth to have no clue why art is so necessary.

Well a computer game wouldnt have that umph without artwork. Overall I am doing it for the enjoyment of it.
Why do people make music?
What productive purpose does music hold?
Why are there chefs?
People can eat unflavored meat and vegetables to live but that would be boring.
Why are there fashion designers?
People can where anything to cover up and keep warm but everyone would look the same.
Why are there writers?
What their useful purpose?
Why do people have sex if they do not plan to reproduce?
Answer:
Enjoyment. |
