Art criticism rule.
Posted by(#Robyn) on Aug 06, 2011
The "no critiquing unless asked for" rule has been revised - the rule is now that criticism needs to be done privately, unless publicly asked for.
In addition, I'm very upset with the response the new rule received. Not that it matters, but I'd just like to let you all know that I am being treated as if I am some tyrannical site owner who cares absolutely nothing what my players think. Everything from flippant talk of how "I know you don't want to hear this so I'll cut it short", "this rule is ridiculous and will bring down Alacrity", "I'm quitting if this rule actually stays", and more, has absolutely left me feeling like crap. I like to think I work very hard to give polls to see what people think and I am constantly revising things to make you players happy, and when I go to make a rule I think the best (and only have good intentions) for the artists on Ala and both the site artists, not only am I treated like crap, but I'm also made to sound as if I've never tried to better the website, EVER.
Feeling incredibly unappreciated here - I rarely say how I feel about a lot of things, but this one has me rather depressed.

Robyn, I think (whether others do or not) that you are an amazing site owner. For example, you work so hard on this site you hardly get sleep. And, when I come on I see new things every day. You try to satisfy everyone's needs, but if some people end up unhappy they criticize you, which is way wrong. To be honest with you, I look up to you because you are so amazing at getting things done, making everyone happy, getting almost everyone's opinions. I don't think you are a bad site owner at all, in fact you are the best and I pity people who think otherwise.
