Grumpy old man like me. Happy holiday, ipernity´s!

During the last five days I´d been called so many times as "moron", as being "an idiot", a "fascist", a "dictator", a "narrow minded guy", as "old-fashioned" or plain simple as "being a lobbyist".

Why was I called with such rude words? Well, because I´m standing behind ipernity´s group-rules and what they are talking about banners and awards in comments. I got called like this for having another opinion as a few other users.

What ipernity are saying about graphic awards and invitions inside comments:
"Images inserted into comments are still allowed and rules haven't changed:
- graphic awards or graphic invitations to groups are forbidden"

And because I stand behind their rules about group invitions inside of comments:
"Using graphic awards or graphic invitations [to groups] is stricltly forbidden
Do not use the comments and especially not graphics in the comment section"

I like it to discuss such matters in the blog of Team ipernity and everywhere else where it´s discussed. This is something you can call an active, healthy community. If things doesn´t get discussed anymore it seemed like nobody´s caring about it anymore. I care about ipernity. :o)

Well, unfortunally sometimes it seemed like some folks can´t handle it to discuss things like that without being rude to others but I´m OK with being an old grumpy men. And I don´t use such words in discussions at all because I think it cast a negative light at people if they are in the need of using such terms, but it´s their choice...

And as long ipernity have these rules about graphic awards and invites in their group-guidelines you can call me a lobbyist for comments without such group-advertisements insides comments, too. I will support their rules however they are, but if something changed it might be the case that I simple accept it without being a lobbyist anymore, lol.


If it would be possible to comply the requirements for CC-licenses in an usericon this would be my new one because it seemed to discribe my personality pretty well even more a photo ever will because I don´t look that grumpy at all. :-)

OK, gimme some drink now. Quickly.
Cheers!

Ah!

Happy holiday, ipernity´s!
