Notes to self
#1 Never ask if people would like to pay for something that is already free, even if it could be better….might not but could.
#2 Never say the words “happy snappers” even if you are only talking about serious dumpers.
#3 Never try to communicate with a person who clearly has trouble comprehending even if they do have some good points that seem to get lost in the DEEP DEEP long winded analogies.
#4 Never suggest change, some people can’t handle new ideas or even the thought
of new ideas even if the ideas were just hypothetical.
#5 Never expect the general public to be able to read, comprehend or answer questions with a yes or no and simple reasons why.
#6 Never assume that great ideas can be born from stupid little ideas,even if you think communication is the key…..just STFU ! LOL
#7 Never enter the forums with an idea even if you just want to hear CONSTRUCTIVE feedback….you will get analogies, lessons and be picked apart.
#8 Never lose your cool even if you want to B-slap someone for being an idiot LOL
#9 Never pay attention to those that troll the forums daily even if they seem on the up and up.
#10 Never forget these rules
Notes to self complete :)
Thank you to the people that disagreed and agreed in the most constructive way, It was very helpful and I have come to a few conclusions of my own by hearing your opinions :)
Thank you, Lisa

Oh dear Lisa, I see you’ve discovered the downside of forums… this is the main reason I steer well clear too. I hope you heal soon…..
Darren Stones, 2 months ago
Lisa, forums are a play area for some. Been there – done that. Mel knows the crap that goes on too well. :)
Loving your pink hair.
Cheers.

On the contrary Lisa, (dare I say it! LOL)...more voices like yours need to be heard in the forums to add some sanity, and challenge those power junkies. (ok, running back to my hole now….run Forrest, RUN!)

I say let the dogs fight it out in the forums ….... ;-)

btw, if you must visit the forums, try the chit chat & games area, the people there at least have a sence of humor. At the very least it will make you laugh!!! Have a great day!!
funkyfacestudio in reply to Mel Brackstone’s comment, 2 months ago
I said before that I would only go there for funny things or really important issues…...what was I thinking to go in with an idea ? DUH ! lol
funkyfacestudio in reply to Darren Stones’s comment, 2 months ago
Hi Darren, I saw your comment but I wont reply there, so all I have to say is this…....what do you think about selling blurry squirrel shots at
a lumberjack convention ? is there such a thing ? ha ha ha
funkyfacestudio in reply to solareclips’s comment, 2 months ago
Hi there, I have tried that before and you are correct, people do seem to have a sense of humor there :)
funkyfacestudio in reply to Lumineux’s comment, 2 months ago
No offense but …...not a fat chance in hell ha ha ha. After you have been picked apart, you lose your cool. I was waiting for the grammar police to show up but thanks anyway :) lol
funkyfacestudio in reply to Karen Cougan’s comment, 2 months ago
Hi Karen, this is my own personal favorite too ! thanks ! :)
Hey! how did you do that ? those are some big fat letters…..STFU looks so much better that way LOL
funkyfacestudio in reply to funkyfacestudio’s comment, 2 months ago
Ok …........I did reply there but I’m done now :)
Darren Stones, 2 months ago
Approach the lumberjack’s after they’ve had a few beers. Won’t matter an iota whether the squirrel’s nuts are blurry or not in the shot. Your pink hair will distract the lads from the lack of apparent sharpness.

Wheeeewww! Thanks for the warning! I haven’t been eaten alive yet but I guess I went into forums without trolls or creatures with a collective IQ in single digits. LOL!
Darling, you just made my flippin’ day!
NOTE TO ALL TROLLS and VERY SMART PEOPLE: In that issue of bold coding for STFU, I copied and pasted whatever she used and will be studying it deeply over the next week or so. If you see any of my posts that look really bad, would you please write all your thoughts on me, my errors, and life itself on a Bubble Mail and send it to [insert someone who cares here]! LOLOL!!!!!

I do so agree with your words … ha ha. I quit attending forums. It mostly ended with me being banned because of having a different opinion anyway. Life is much more fun without forums.

The forums are about a bunch of closed minded individuals promoting an open art platform….but what I like the most about the forums is that there is a consensus among the usual suspects that whatever they say in the forums is as a matter of fact representative of the majority of Redbubble members…..as if….. LOL
