Or maybe he is trying to help out by saying your position won't be any better by creating topics like this. I'm asking all of you to try and be a bit more understanding towards each other.
Regardless of the situation, going on about downvoting and justifying it by saying they did the same or worse is not the way to go.
If you have a problem with this, refrain from using up- and downvotes in the first place. Stop stirring up arguments, and for your own sake, stop being so aggressively defensive of your own opinion.Last warning until I will have to take measures.
thats what i mean its a big fat MAYBE...since i can only speculate about what he meant...as much as you do right now...the same problem with the orb thingy...that's not helpfull.
the worst case would be changing something that noone got disturbed by. just because i speculated that was what he meant.
and as i said i didn't voted him down because he did.
btw that was exactly what he said not just maybe...but i ask politely why he thinks it won't be any better by creating topics like this.
his thoughts as far as i can tell were that i wont get a better position (=reputations) in the forum, with such a topic...but it never was about reputations.
is it forbidden to ask him then why he thinks it would be better to not open such a thread? -

Can we not start turning this into a downvote argument?
Also, this is exactly what I mean with accepting criticism. Someone thinks your thread is not the right step to take and doesn't like the way this is going. Your response to it is to downvote them back repeatedly, whereas you can just take the downvote as an indication that some people may not like the way you're approaching this problem and may be trying to tell you something. By downvoting back you're not only acting as what some, including yourself, would consider to be childish, but you're also not really improving your "position" on the forums either.I'm not a fan of a topic like this either. It radiates a request for attention. I get you want to come to a point of understanding with people and I sincerely hope that you are doing that through mutual adaptation rather than convincing others your opinion is right, but a topic like this really comes across as attention-grabbing and really generally does not make the situation any better, let alone if you start discussing about why other people's criticism is not in accordance with what you consider to be right to do. This is really a topic that should be discussed with people individually through PM, rather than blowing it up to a forum-wide thread. It may just be making things worse for yourself that way.
If you continue writing in this topic, which you all have the right to, please refrain from turning this into a rep slaughterhouse, and keep things civil and flame/troll-free. Try to understand each other, rather than to enforce opinions regarding why you have to be right and they have to be wrong. That's not the point of discussing something like this. You come to a point of understanding together, not by forcing someone to keep up with your behaviour.
Rep abuse, name-calling, insulting and other targeting behaviour is punishable as stated in the forum rules. Steer clear from making us take measures.
WHAT? I was asking him why he thinks that and he down votes that question. tho I down vote that opinion...since it's not helping me at all...and he is obviously not here to help me with it.
Simple question why he thinks that and the thing is getting childish...and now YOU blame me for that xD
also i never said that someone is wrong...would you pls stop saying that...i ask politely why he is downvoting it...to understand it and to not just take a down vote out of it...i dont care about him downvoting but this threat is about improving the way i act...downvote only shows me that he's not liking something but not what and why...

I gave 1 downvote? You gave me more downvotes.... This way you aren't gonna fix the issues you want to fix you will only make more.
And no you didn't say reputation but you did say position in the community.
yes I said position...but for me 'position' is not about the reputations I earn or likes I get on e.g. youtube or fb.
not everyone that likes you votes for you and maybe not everyone that dislikes me votes against me...that's why I also opened the topic...to get into a conversation with all the guys maybe even hating me (wow hard word)

2you gave me 2 downvotes...and I gave you 2 as well...both after yours...and I drew 1 back because I found it childish...then you drew one back.
pls don't lie then and stay to it. Not cool...and saying then I downvoted you more, which isn't the truth is what's not helping, there you are right :/
18 minutes ago, SunWu II. said:I almost feel like you're not doing this by accident but AGAIN you made it all about being right....
no you are right but still your example wasn't the best since he agreed with what I said...
I also think that nostalgic isn't the best way to describe what peoples feel...there is a game coming up called "Legion TD 2"...and there was a Warcraft 3 mod called Legion TD, which this new thingy is referring to. It has all new graphics and so on...in comparison there isn't to much what they both have in common, except the idea. But many many people are talking about the Legion TD 2 in a nostalgic way. But you are right the look also counts into that, mostly that is just because the human wants to stick with what he knows already.
I didn't want to be right there, that's because I shared that thinking, but I ASK him if that's the case for him personally.
it was more something I learnt in ergonomy class and what I wanted to know whether it's the case or not. Yes also unlucky from me, since that appeared as if I wanted to be right...I just tried to understand the guy I was talking to. Call me evil
so the example was a bit unlucky and kinda out of the context...but I understand it, since noone can expect to read all of the thread you are referring to.

So you want to get a better position in the community but you don't want a better reputation on the forum?
Yeah, well I never said anything about reputation and I don't understand why you start downvoting everything I'm responding to you

Don't have any problems with you, but maybe it helps you if i tell you what i recognized. First thing is what LagOps said, i have the feeling that sometimes you take an opinion as a thesis wich you have to give a counter argument to. Now, of course sometimes there are facts wich we can't deny and then someone may be right or wrong. But in a thread like yours where it's about nostalgia and design there are a lot of opinions wich can't be negated by logic. For example i remember someone wrote something along the lines of ,,nostalgia plays an important role for me'' and then you answered with something similar to ,,yeah humans are afraid of change...'' It can come along as condescending if you dismiss other peoples feelings because you have another view on a topic. Just accept them with their different views and opinions and people will like you more. If someone writes something extremely wrong and stupid you can still destroy him with logic and be respected, but too often there's no clear line between right and wrong.
Second thing, probably not as important to many people, that
winky wink comes of as soooo annoying and smug to me when i'm in an argument with someone. It's almost like the smiley is saying: ,,Hey, don't be mad. How could you have known that...being the idiot that you are...i knew all along '' i know it's not ment that way and maybe it's just me but that winky smiley is the embodiment of passive aggressivenes!
the guy you are giving the example about...already agreed with me

First step is- solve problem with people who have a problem, if they actually have it. You try to do it? If not... You started from the end, looking for a kind of mediator(s), and showing this to the audience. In Poland we have some kind of saying- "od dupy strony"- from the ass side. From what i read in your topics- It's hard to get along with you sometimes. Instead of trying to understand someone, maybe ask- "what you mean..." or something, you start the disscusion about something trivial because you dont like something, and the brawl begins. (Possible future) THINK: maybe Skylord Reborn will start to make profits, or Dev want to utilize some $Patronite$ remains, so Skylord Dev want you to do some graphics- not for free. But He sees your lack of professionalism in forum discussion and He will not want to work with you anymore.
END sorry for awful grammar.but thats it...i ask what he meant with it and instantly its "that i cant take criticism"...that was never the case...to ask about what he thinks what is wrong is not to be not able to take criticism.
the opposite is the case...i want the critic...but constructive. he only said the old one. but thats not helping if i already knew that and tried to fix it but didnt succeed because i didnt know what the critic "the old one" is about.
after asking that and mentioning why the old one isnt helping they get passive aggressive and are like im the devil, for asking what they meant with that.
its kinda hard but being rude to me after not just taking "the old one" isnt the nice way in the first place...surely i will respond to that unfriendly behaviour...but i got more the feeling that the negative picture that some guys already had with me effected that "he is not able to take criticism" point of view. what rly made it hard for me to escape that...asking politely and instandly getting negative vipes in form of some passive aggression, is pretty hard. Also always being told to be angry all the time isnt helpfull...i never was angry about any criticism
xD how could i...guys are interested in my art and want me to help improving it.
its only that some unconstructive critic isnt helping...my way at saying that might be sometimes to direct...but never unfriendly only direct and analysing...what makes it sort of dry and maybe lacking in emotions...and if something lacks in emotion and is direct the closest drawer to put in might be anger xD but i never was...further into a senseless discussion i get mad obviously...but never on the first posts. there has to be something that is off about the conversation for me to get mad about it...and telling me "the old one is better" is not even close to be enough for that HAHA

@YT Tobbezockt Xlink's feedback he has given you in that thread has summed things up pretty well:
Overall just try to calmly accept criticism instead of starting arguments. Getting feedback is not about you being right, but about getting a second opinion and possibly inspiration. There is no need to defend your position. Wether or not to follow that criticism is your choice in the end and it's perfectly ok to do things your way if you feel that the criticism was unfounded or a poorly informed opinion etc.. I would suggest to respond to criticism only in case you are unclear about what exactly is being criticised, need further information or many forum users have the same/simillar criticism to offer. Please refrain from acting passive-agressive, making fun of others or any such things as this will only lead to arguments and not a constructive discussion.
I hope this helps
but thats what i did...the opinion about the orbs were unclear i ask politely...the other guy got passive aggressive and so did i afterwards.

i wasn't aware that there was any sort of problem... maybe you can link threads where ppl complained?
hard, since one whole discussion got deleted out of a thread...all the comments having to do with it to...I even got right at the end...seemed a bit like hide the evidence
but here is the other one:

Hi dear skylords and skylordins (xD),
it came to my ears that there must be a few skylorderies out there who have problems with me, be it personally or about my attitude...or even just because of some kind of a language barrier...or just a bad image of me as a person.
Right now I would like to fix this issues, not only but also because I would like to work as an artist for the team (and NO that does not mean that those borders everyone hates *hust sarcasm* will be implemented. thats still a personal project), and they don't hire people that have such a negative position in the community.
So all of you skylordrizies...feel absolutely free to contact me...in this thread or PM
This one should be all about fixing this issues, as long as it takes.
Also the staff members are invited to join!
NOT GRABBING FOR ATTENTION AS SOMEONE ALREADY MENTIONED...AND I ALSO DONT CARE ABOUT RE REPUTATIONS
Greetings to all out there...be the power of the deck be with you..."oh wait thats another game" xD

dpi is the standart measurement unit set by most graphic programs, dpi is also used by monitor measurment (even if the designer should say ppi) and yes it's definitly thought for print becaus of the print raster unit, but still the difference between ppi and dpi is for the common guy unkown and thous resulting in the saying "dpi for media is set by 72". and yes you are right it would lose sharpnes that was my failure of describing with a false word, what i meant is the pixel will be compromised and that will result in loss of pixel wich means that some details might disapear.
pretty rarely and not easy to say that in general.
if i draw the same kind of vector based illustration or in this case logo via hand in photoshop with a high resolution and ppi you wont be able to tell a difference...since vector based picture usually dont have that many details.
but u r right, that in a drawn picture with a hight res and ppi can be a lag of details if u scale them down. But what i experienced is that this lag of detail mostly occur in pictures which u wont be even able to make in a vector based graphic. What itself means that u can draw nearly all vector based pictures in a high res/ppi pixel based picture, but u cant do all pixel based pictures in a vector based picture.
Therefore u would only get less viable participations...thats what i think
if the logo idea isnt that complex and easy to do as a vector based graphic its always better...but for a "gaming logo" nearly impossible...mostly brand logos are vector based are realy simplistic. But correct me if im wrong
think it goes to far for this topic, nevertheless the general things we said should still help one or the other i think

Im just saying, because if you resize the logo from a big format into a low res it will lose sharpness. The reason they didn't need a vector graphic for the logo was because they always had 3 different sizes for their logo, it's a EA thing. They did this by making the small logo into a 300 dpi format and resizing the img with the dpi is almost no loss in quality.
resizing from big format to a small logo will not make it losing sharpness...what u mean is resizing from small to big.
And what u r saying about the dpi is not correct. Dpi is a value for printing and has nothing to do with the digital picture
...what u mean is ppi pixels per inch...and the ppi value alone would not change the size of a picture...only the the dimensions (length x height) or the resolution (total pixels in lenght x height) plus the ppi does change the size of a picture...so u always need 3 of those values to change the actuall size of a digital picture.
e.g. u can have a 1inch(or cm) x 1inch(or cm) picture with either 100 or 1000ppi and u can also have a 1000inch x 1000inch picture with 100 or 1000ppi or even a 1000inch x 1000inch with only 1ppi.
what makes the picture sharp is the right compination out of those 3 values, therefore what makes a digital picture smaller or bigger is only the resolution or the dimensions itself. the ppi vallue can or most of the time will stay the same...even if u would not need 300 ppi in a 1inch x 1inch picture to make it look sharp because thats pretty much the size of a desktop icon ^^
another quick example is your monitor lets say it has ~24 inch(60 cm) in length with total pixel of 1920 at that side...that makes it 80 pixels per inch (80 ppi) and i would say that monitor is really sharp. so if you do a logo the size of this monitor and with a ppi value of 300 it should be more than enough for all the porposes we need it for...as you would never need a larger logo as the monitor is and even then u would only need a 80 ppi logo to let it appear sharp
so its nearly 4 times as much as u need minimum.
Maybe that helps some of the other guys too

A question: if you want a "high resolution" img why don't you ask for a vector graphic? because the transparency is way better for web format and easier to scale in the code.
I bet the original BF Logo wasn't a vector graphic neither...because you cant transfer each and every illustration into a vector graphic...that would guarantee best res in each and every size but would be hard to manage for, I bet the most of the guys...and most of the design ideas as well
Problems with the lovely "Tobbezockt" :)

true dat, but i always just try to understand them...isnt it a lot more weird to have a boss...saying "you are right" but not understanding him and just doing nothing because of that till the end of the day HAHA?
and you are right until now it was never important for me to please the people by my own personality...more by the work im doing...and to improve your work...sure it might be helpfull to be a nice yes saying guy...but if you dont undestand what someone is saying, and only telling them yes...your work wont improve...since you dont know where to improve
or am i wrong about that...btw pretty much the first comment that was helpfull, no offence...
the other ones were all right too
