Imagine if Andrea had used my 'butt taking a poop' design.

Here's my problem with the above, recently Nick did a Steady Leak which received no board comments. Nick then posted "so" basically looking for a response to the column. So while the Vagina of the Day was a non-main page entry, there is an existing trend of calling dissenters "trolls" to which I wholeheartedly disagree.

Nick has to decide if he wants people real input (the good and the bad) or canned echo chamber applause. IMHO, if a writer shies away from criticism the writer will never grow and isn't deserving of any respect from the readers.

The Writer has a letter column where The Writer answers everything asked, no matter what.

So again why pull the column, why get huffy of over criticism?

I got huffy at one and a half people. I should have known Slater was going to show his ass. It's what he's best at. I pulled it off Facebook because frankly, it was a goof, and if it's too much for folks to handle and if it's going to detract from all the very hard work going into the site (build a thousand bridges...) I'm willing to scuttle something I find amusing for the greater good.

It's me LISTENING to criticism and RESPONDING to it.

If this had been posted in the Misc Culture, or humor, or The Fact That This Exists thread, I wouldn't have posted that the bar had been lowered. The fact that it's in the Chud.Com Main forum, a section where I always thought was reserved for where this website demonstrates it's brand, and how it identifies itself, I felt lowered the bar. You could get upset at me for criticizing the content, or take the compliment that I think the main forum has generally been better than little in-jokes. Again, nothing against little in-jokes, I have a shitload of them myself, but this was a strange place for them.

And calling everyone criticizing it a jerk.

But admittedly, you did listen and respond and did it without handing the boards over to Renn, so yay!

So if we move the thread to the Misc. Humor section can we have the MagVag back?

I think that this is one of those "goofy" diversions like the Mary Worth cartoons or the bands, which are not for everyone. If this was in one of those other forums it would be easier for people who don't like it to ignore it. I think Chris Miller got it right. If someone named 88 Inches posts a "Vagina Of The Day" thread in the Main Sewer, then it looks like this is what "CHUD has become". But you dealt with it, whatever.

See?

Chris Miller's initial criticism was jerky too. As was Cameron's and Richard's. Don't be a dick.

Wait a damn minute, how was my mentioning that the pictures might possibly be in violation of Facebook's image posting policy "jerky"? It had nothing to do with the quality of the idea or the impression it gave off, just that Facebook might not take kindly to stylized vaginas being posted on someone's page.

Butler, because people didn't like something they are jerks? Please tell us how people can criticize without being jerky.

(Also my comment was made before Nick called people jerks).

I don't think Dickson or several others were being rude; Dickson in particular seemed fairly neutral in his questions. Nick has mentioned recently that he's bad at taking criticism. Anyone expecting him to be awesome about criticism within 30 days of making that statement is being impatient or unrealistic. We're all works in progress.

It's not a criticism that makes sense to ME, personally, but it's not jerky (Which, by the way, Chris, was why I said your "initial" criticism). You can offer up constructive criticism without turning it into attacks or sneaking in little smartass barbs. It's not a thin-skinned thing, just don't be a dick.

God, what a sad place this is. Really. I say that out of love and despair.
As of right now, CHUD is no longer my homepage. Bye, Chud.


I'd really love to know how many daily hits you've lost in the last few months. Unbelievable.

You're really that upset about one thread about a goofy joke? That's pathetic.

And if you read Nick's latest question and answer session you'll discover that site traffic has remained consistent over the last few months.

As I mentioned I ordered three of these to give as presents to dirty-minded friends:



But wait! What's this?



A quartet of the querulous quote-causing quim!

So now I'll give one away to a Chewer. PM me an anecdote titled "Vagina Of The Day," interpreting the phrase as you see fit, and one of you will "win" this delightful magnetic pube game, to enjoy, re-gift, or melt down a message board of your own.

Entry deadline is tomorrow at 9AM eastern. Christmas is coming! Get those entries in!
