So let it be so
Anyone want to add it to Wikipedia?
"The nearest Monday to the 26th of September was declared 'Codpiece Monday' by a quorum vote of at least 3 people in 2011. On this day, those in possession of a codpiece are expected to wear it to work or out in public as a fashion statement."

ah well, that's the whole thing of creative arts of any kind
if you can't take criticism then you're simply out of your league, the end. It's brutal out there, especially when a lot of the time you're competing with people who'll do things for free(or near enough) and be good at it too. The reason I like it here is that there's some amazing talent on this site but it's mostly about just taking the piss and making really really terrible jokes, so I'm not going to claim to be anything, I'm happy to just draw the odd shit that appears in my head. :)
of course on the flipside of that you get fucktards who worship whatever vacant crap and fling accusations of ignorance at folk who call bullshit on stuff that's bullshit. Arg, I'm in danger of making deep thought! Back to making shitty noises on toy keyboards :D
Indeed. I mean, how else are you going to know what you do is good, without the opinion of others?
It's why I often find it difficult when I'm working on a project and there's no feedback from anybody at all. And likewise; not to sound arrogant or snobbish, but the reason why I think this site is a better artistic ground than deviantART is, we can take a joke.
Sure, it takes a while to get used to the banter on here, I know Moggy had a bit of difficulty going along with it at the start, but she seems to have accepted that we do take the piss quite often on this site :)

I can't say I've been compelled to take my work to 2chan, but I know I'd be in for some interesting results if I did. XD
I honestly can't see how this site is cliquey at all; I think a majority of the users tend to mingle with users on most of the boards and shifts. The worst thing that could come out a mass 'protest' about cliques is that the board would be split into numerous categories, and that would not be at all good.

Killerkitti
was not a bad artist. She was much like me, learning as she went along. Her mistake was asking for advice then reacting badly when she got it. Although I'd love advice, I realise B3ta isn't always the place to ask. I tend to post and be damned.
she did just ultimately post similar things on here, but then she almost seemed to be growing up on here too, which has bound to have some kind of O_O effect
I've no idea why she left, I've been on somewhat of a hiatus from here myself, no particular reason I was just occupied with other things.
But yeah, sometimes there's a slight issue with the subtlety gland on this site but meh, life's not all fun is it.
I think I saw her DA page one time, and you're right, she isn't a terrible artist.
But I think in any business of this kind, it helps to know what your goal is, who you want to affect, and so on. I personally don't mind b3ta in terms of feedback, I think you guys are pretty fair, but I guess that's just me. :P

ok so
we should have a child encased in an oxygen free environment to prevent it going off, with a glass cover to be opened in case of emergency
similarly, we should have a larger child to operate a hammer to let out the smaller child.
the hammer should be stored separately behind it's own glass (so as the larger child cannot use it in an erroneous or mischievous manner) away from the larger child who would again be stored behind glass in a protective gaseous environment.
Thus, the large hammer to release the small hammer to use to release the child releasing hammer and also the large child whom upon release is given the child releasing hammer in order to release the small child.
The duration of this hammer mode transfer and child multiple release should be sufficient to allow the aircraft to crash effectively.
