For what it's worth, I liked Boinky before the whole Chubby vs Boinky debacle, and I continue to like the guy. So when I say I like Crabby as a user and I'm on his side on this thing, remember, I was solidly in the Chubby camp on the last issue.
And yes, I told you that you can generally say whatever you want in comics, but fights had to stay in FGH, but I don't think we've ever seen anything on SC like we've seen in the last day.
So lets deconstruct this thing.
You posted a series of comics and crabby responds on 2/22 with:
You reply four days later with:
Crabby:
Chubby:
On the face of things, its a compliment. If you read it as a slap, then take it and move on. Critique of others' strips is allowed on SC. The only person I see escalating things to a fight here is Chubby.
On 2/25, you post a new CC. The rules allow the contestant to take any user's strip and make a director's cut of it, by modifying it in any number of ways. Crabby made one, we've all seen it, but here it is:

Yes, he's criticizing your political strips, but he's not the first user to criticize another in his strips or in a CC. If you had been quiet about it, you probably would have seen other entries, but no...your response was to go for the throat in the CC thread:
quote:
No, he's a big fucking loser. He comes out with one original cartoon in four months, and this is it? Those who can, do, and those who can't, criticize their betters.
To everyone else: Please don't let this ugliness deter you from entering. My stuff is fair game, along with everyone else's, but it needs to be done with some wit.
So people can take off on your strips, but they have to know what you'll find funny first or else they'll be called fucking losers, etc? If you're wondering why there haven't been many entries in this thread, I think the answer lies in that quote somewhere above.
Crabby responds:quote:
I have a body of work which more than speaks for itself.
Just because I don't have the time to make a 500 comics a month like some people doesn't mean that I don't know what I'm doing. Its a quality over quantity issue.
Oh, and I handled your stuff with plenty of wit my friend.
I see the CC turning into a big mess, so I post this:
quote:
I'd hate to see this become the first CC thread ever to get moved to FGH.
It's a good concept. Everybody to their corners and come out stripping.
Thankfully, BigFrank submitted a comic, and I thought we were back on track, but no...here comes Chubby again:
Yes. It says loudly and clearly, "I SUCK ASSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!"
You don't make any, you poseur.
I've never seen a CC judge go off on a contestant like this before, and it's poisoning an otherwise great idea for a contest.
Then we got a full day of anti-crabby comics including many that are downright libelous. The libel continues in this FGH thread, and in your forum signature.
Please, stop and consider what many users are telling you above. Whatever perceived wrong Crabby did to you, it doesn't justify the vitriol we've seen in the last day.
