I do not understand why coarse conversation is considered somehow a good way to present your artistic credentials to the world. It is rather like using a caveman's club to explain the finer points of color harmony, a completely macho approach that leads to resentment and ill-will. Art or beliefs, in my opinion, should not be used as battering rams.

This forum is a good example of acheiving discourse without disharmony.

One forum known for such a ridiculing attitude sells their own line of products and immediately clamps down on anyone slightly critical. It's probably not a good idea to try and mix an "open" forum with marketing your own product.
