[QUOTE=numberthirty;14557]While I wouldn't say "slapped down", the new layout being something that makes discussing specific thing more difficult that the old board(let alone wiping discussions that were not the problem) does feel like a punishment that most of the old posters did not deserve.
The board's call to make, but I don't know that telling folks how to feel about it will build the new community they seem to want.[/QUOTE]If you don't want to be a part of it, we're fine with that. We're looking to build a fun, accepting, open community. If you're not in to that, that's a shame.

[QUOTE=MajorHoy;16545]But "a no-talent hack" seems pretty mild and more like an opinion than an insult. Is CBR going to get [I]that[/I] strict?[/QUOTE]It's rude. You can express yourself more intelligently than that. It's pretty simple.

[QUOTE=Carabas;17844]Can we say we feel somebody is a hack if we back up out reasons for feeling that way? Otherwise you might as well start banning people for mentioning certain writers and artists at all.[/QUOTE]No, you can't. Talk intelligently and not rudely.

[QUOTE=Fringe Division;17865]What happens when a writer takes to social media to lambast people who are critical of something he wrote? Is that up for discussion?[/QUOTE]It's unbelievable that we have to hand hold you all like this. If a creator says something you want to talk about, you are welcome to. You can even disagree. You just can't be rude or disrespectful.
GO READ THE RULES AGAIN. Ask yourself before posting -- would you act that way in your best friends house?

OK, I hope everyone is reading these posts. The mods are really trying to help get you guys in to the community. Some of you aren't listening. Some of you are creating ridiculous scenarios out of thin air.
Be smart. Act kindly. Have fun.
It's very simple.
