But I don't think ATP attacked you personally.

So comparing a grown mans work with that of a 5 year olds is not an insult? If someone insults me i think of that as being a personal attack.

He does not like your style and has said that.

Many times. Even after he posted that he had had enough and was not going to get involved anymore.

But when you post "tiki art" here people are going to say good and bad things.
That's how it goes.

Really? It's funny how much other 'art' there is on this forum that i personally think is absolute rubbish and has even less resembelence to tiki than Gene's work does and yet i don't say anything. I look at it, have a chuckle to myself and then move on and ignore it. And i'm fairly confident that ATP would agree with me if i mentioned specific names and yet he doesn't insult/attack other people and their work so why has he singled Gene out? Why is that? Is it because he actually knows the people who's work is crap but won't say it to their faces?

And just for the record, i actually agree with several of the points ATP has made and i too personally don't care for Gene's work (Sorry Gene, but it had to be said.) but that doesn't mean if he chooses to post on this forum that he needs to be insulted just because you dislike his 'art'. He has every right to be here as the next person.

Bite your tongue and get over it, move on to the next thread.
