Since TheMuggler chose to quote me, I feel like I need to clarify the point I was trying to make, Either you just didn't get my point or maybe I didn't say it clear enough. I wasn't saying Tikifish's piece was anything like coping a Shag (of course that has nothing to do with anything as far as her auction). And I was in no way supporting being mean and nasty to people either. I was simply saying that discussions have got nasty before and it seemed a lot worse to me to be talking bad about someone who can't even respond because they are not on Tiki Central and have no idea the trash was being said. Some of the things being said about the Shag rip-off artist was just hateful. That was just a discussion that also stuck out in my mind and I personally thought was totally evil. I think that was Mad-Tiki's point ???Who knows ??? Whether it was an excuse or not, isn't my problem. I don't like bashing anyone that is out there trying to make a living, especially an artist !! So in short Being nasty to anyone whether a Tiki central person or not is uncool, But everyone does have their opinion whether it is a popular one or not! In short it would be wonderful if everyone could express themselves a lot nicer and not go off on people, but after reading many post on this site I don't think that will ever be the case. There are just some really passionate people on here that have very very strong opinions and may not eloquently express them.
So no hating from me. Live, Love, and Laugh, and get over the rest !!
