That wasn't very bright of them. :p Telling others that you were mean because you busted them for breaking the rules is just silly. Plus it's not even true. It would have been better to just apologize for breaking the rules and try to not do it again. At least you put an end to it.

Why am I not surprised? People can be so dumb at times. Still, I hope they take your advice and just let it go. It's not worth it to get others in trouble just to lie and claim you didn't do anything.
Also, I noticed that you changed the quiz results. They look a lot nicer.
I'm glad you got it resolved. Not that you couldn't have anyway, but that works out the best when they apologize. Now hopefully they'll behave instead of creating silly drama like that. It's so unecessary really.
It would really have saved them a lot of trouble if they just did what was initially told. If I remember correctly, if a work of yours is rejected, a reason is stated as to why.
Well, I need to remember that one more now - credit other artists. I seldom upload works that involved other artists works simply because I forgot where or from whom I got the source, so I just keep it personal. I don't want to go uploading it and offending someone in the process...
I think you handled this problem well. I have to agree that MODs shouldn't be banned by users. If that can't be done to all, at least one account - like the one that PM message sender used to inform you that your work is accepted, can be used.
Oh definitely. Kids can be so silly sometimes. Though that's part of why I don't instantly swing the modrod and freeze people. They are just kids so most of them just clean up their act. It's only those few who go into OMG it's the end of the world mode that require me to do more. =P
Oh I know, they take it as the end of the world instead of a wakeup call to get things straight. That's one thing I love about the comment system we have now, it makes it easier to keep track of that kind of nonsense. Before it was tedious to go through and see what was up. Still it's amazing how quickly people stop being idiots when faced with having their account frozen.
I really do think some people take things too much to heart. Ask them to credit an artist and suddenly caps lock gets turned on and you're told how you're picking on them when everyone else does it so they should be allowed to do it too.
I was pounced upon too a couple of years ago. They were leaving bad comments on all my pieces, bad mouthing me on their myotaku, badmouthing me on mine...and of course a couple of sheep followed suit.
Least you handled it well, so kudos to you for that.

People are silly. :p
I just got through checking out the quizzes. I'll probably bug you or Indi later on to learn how to make them. ^_^

It would have taken the person less time and effort to just make the appropriate correction than to be a twit and get their friend to harass you.
Honestly, too often people make the rediculous and immature choice.
Bazinga!

It's like the unofficial rule of theOtaku.com: if you're making a quiz, you will not finish until it's 4am. Ah well . . . thanks for the plug!
As for the other stuff . . . I'm just reminded of how awesome you are. Lookin' forward to hearing more about it today (if there is any more).
