You may notice that I don't say alot here. In fact, almost never. This is because mostly don't have anything to of importance to write, and so I won't bore you people with things that are drib-drab and pointless. I'm not a memoire man or a diary keeper, so I don't just type/write/speak about ANY old thing. No, I prefer to stick to saying something which deserves to be heard.
So, I'm talking about critics.
You should know who I'm talking about, but I'll say it anyway. Put simply, I'm talking about the people who exist merely to criticize, to rain on your parade with ceaseless and unhelpful nitpicking. They are there on every entry into this site, whether the entry is good or bad. No offense, Newgrounds, but you have alot of shit reviewers. And as much as that occurs, you have something else that is also annoying. Sometimes, a decent review comes along and it expresses opinions decently with helpful constructive points involved. And for some reason, there are cases where one guy, or a number of people, vote it as a useless review. Why, I can never understand, excepting of course for the possibility that people doing that like to be complete dicks.
I have no idea, of course, whether what I am about to say is true or not, but I suspect that if people tried to put more thought into what they write and express a better opinion whenever possible...people might get higher scores. If you thought for more than three seconds on what you have to say ANYWHERE in Newgrounds, I guarantee the bans would be less, the reviews would be less crappy, and all would be well. Unfortunately, that doesn't stop people from badly undercutting the value of a decent flash with poor scoring skills. No, trust me on this. I'm totally justified. Most of the reviews where I refute the under-par review of another are considered reasonable if not helpful. (The ones with about as much work put into them that are voted useless? I dunno. Not everyone approves and not every single one is a winner, assuming nobody's just being a dick. Hard to say.)
I don't like critics. Critics are people who work too hard to find a fault. They don't exactly go with the flow on things. This would be one of the few times I make a stink about them, mostly just to get it out of my system and put forth an opinion of some thought. Still, I'd rather keep this on my own channel. If I don't like critics, then that's my business. They tend to give me fuel to fire at them, though. But I'll never approve of the stupid ones. You know the kind. The ones who can't type their way out of a paper bag and what-not. But you can't really stop 'em either.
Newgrounds, everything by everyone, for better or for worse. Shit happens.
