I look in the "Critiques" everyday, and more often than not, there is nothing in there I want to comment on or critque.

OK Mike you got the tip of the iceberg buddy, but I've tried relentlessly for over 6 months to get some kind of life back into the Critique area.

This area has been getting progressively flooded with requests for comments and those who ask rarely give in return.

The 3 posts thing is valid, but if ya don't mind me jumping onboard, the whole issue needs addressing some how.

It really annoys me no end to bother my ass to give crits, only for those asking to not even bother their asses to respond to those who take time to write. I wonder if some of the posters even return to see the results before posting the next.

Well said Mike, well said and raised. Laz

We too would like to force people to critique others before they can be critiqued. We also plan to delete original posts that don't have any pictures to critique. We do much to force people to reply to peoples comments, but we hope that people will see that it's important to do. Thanks for the suggestions.

How do you know if I have or haven't critiqued?

You can't seriously believe anyone follows ever critique posted.

I normally give my "CRITIQUES", when veiwing the galleries, seeing as how most of them posted end up there.

To me it's a courtesy if you do, but there is so much, as you like to say, sub standard art that's not worth the effort, or styles/mediums I don't participate in.

I for one normally look at the "hits" and those with the fewest or no...no...no responses are the ones I look at.

I flat ass refuse to be a part of the good ol boy attitude and give anyone praises that aren't anything more than ego boosters!

And yes granted, there have been times when a member has asked about a piece that was a wip that I have commented on, but rarely do I comment on a finished product.

So why are you all so concerned about this?

It all seems so juvenille to me, but if you want to make an issue out of it...so be it.

But it really is starting to get annoying with all this petty crap.
