Editing someone else's image without at least asking... (Page 7): Really, I think I am more a laser cannon, picking off those who stand in the way of learning.

He seems to be a loose cannon.

You don't need a cannon. You need a mirror.

If you can't learn, you can't teach.

To rephrase something Woody Allen said, "Those who can't do, teach. And those who can't teach, teach art."

But we re NOT discussing copyright law, we are discussing abiding by the forum’s posted rules and the originator’s (clearly posted and reiterated) wishes. This is NOT about censorship, it is about respect, courtesy and adherence to the rules, and no amount of obfuscation, self-justification or attempting to steer the thread elsewhere will change that. It is simple to end this - apologize, admit you made a mistake (we all do) and commit to not repeating the offense. Simple.

If you had read the thread, TriX, you would see that the dead horse of following the rules was laid to rest, with complete agreement by me.

Meanwhile, the discussion had drifted into those other topics I've listed, unfinished and a valid discussion, helpful to many who do not seem to understand them fully.

Why do you smack the poor old horsie yet again? it's OVER, and has been for weeks. Following the rules is what members should do. DISCUSSING the rules and broader implications is in the interest of free speech--and THINKING.

Apparently not since you continued to break the rules and got your thread deleted. Your arrogant response to Admin shows your continued recalcitrance.

Start your own thread. Then you can rant all you want. We'll see how quickly it gets moved to the Attic (again).

Bob, I’ve been reading the thread for DAYS, and the reason it is not over is because you will not just STOP. I’m sure many of us on this thread have observed these never-ending responses from you that go on FOREVER on other threads. I won’t assist you - I am now unwatching (and you should do the same).

You are nothing but a distraction here, stating what's been done as though it hasn't, attacking people (projecting perhaps), and driving off decent discussion with your obsessive hatred. A Pyrrhic victory.

We who are interested will indeed find other places to conduct a strong discussion.

What do you mean when you say "we"? Do you have a toad with you? No one that has participated on this thread is in agreement with you. You are alone in that wilderness which is your mind.

Well, bless your heart! By "we," I meant those whom I described as open and willing to learn.

More importantly, NONE of those in this thread disagree with me when it comes to the rules.

I certainly hope you wrote without hatred in that heart of yours, but, really, reading what was posted might tame uncalled for emotion.

Just thought I’d check in to see how JoeJoe’s thread was doing, and by golly...once again...this thread has, as so often happens...hij@cked and turned into “all about artsyBob”

I’d been hoping this old 78 record was broken

Other places like your own thread, as I already suggested. Where you and your toad can have a good tome licking each other’s back.

Do you think the toad or him will apologise for stealing my image and adding that awful large border..??
