FATC, yes you are right maybe he was having an off day and probably so was I and like you say things aren't generally black and white...
All the other artists, collectors, sellers and fans I have met have at least always been civil and I've never had an issue with any of them.
The point you make about artists joining the boards to discuss their work is valid but without people liking their output I'm guessing the work will dry up so some easy PR for them will always go down well. Another good PR example is artists that do drawings for free, while others go much further and do painted pictures (Simon Davis for example) for the fans again at no cost while others *expect* contributions.
Boasting (which I wasn't) about what I can spend on original artwork shouldn't have any relevance one way or the other.
BUT all this is cause I call someone a twat and get called a cunt in return, interesting, especially as I seem to be on someones Killfile/list(?) already...
Suppose I should go all septic here and shout about the freedom or speech and the right to arm bears or whatever else I want to do, or go all religious and shout let them without sin judge me (is that correct?) or just plain forgive me.
