But was there some point to this thread because I totally lost it?

It says "Sven" in the title so perhaps we were talking about Swans and someone just made a typo?
Masterbainter:
Actually it appears it started out as someone requesting more comics of Steve instead of ones involving Sven.
My questions it now this, because I've seen this talked about a bit before with more comic request of steve. I've read through the entire comic series and can't seem to figure out what the steve-crush is all about. I must be missing something.

The REASON I banned him is not that he is unhappy with the comic, or that he had criticism. It was that he had the sheer GALL to assume that he knew my motivations, state of mind, and feeling towards my own work.

As I recall, he spoke of your _audience_, and you said "You don't know who my audience is." Your audience (as opposed to terms like "intended audience", "target audience", etc) is not something that has anything to do with your motivations, state of mind, and feeling towards your own work. Your audience is the people who actually read your comic. He also said you were pandering to a particular subset of that audience. Now, I can see how this could be offensive. But the minute you insist on saying some forms of criticism are not valid or are not permitted, this forum is not a venue for serious criticism. And, hey, maybe you don't want it to be; that's your call. I do think it's a bit ridiculous to say he wasn't banned for having criticism - I suppose that was true in the technical sense: he wasn't banned for _having_ a view about the comic, see, he was banned for what that view was.
I'm not sure you know who your audience is either; you seemed to think (this is my interpretation of what you said in the newspost) reactions would be split in the recent Marten/Dora fight.

Its the more common way of spelling Marten.GAH I'm such a bad person for not obsessing over fictional characters name spelling. Let me get my pen and paper so I can write their names over and over and over for eternity because its soo fucking important.

You don't have to obsess over it or play the martyr and call yourself a bad person. You could just pay a little more attention to how people's names are spelled. The fact that they're fictional is irrelevant. Spelling someone's name wrong shows that you don't give a shit about them, so why should anyone give a shit about what you have to say about them?
--- End quote ---
"play the martyr " that seriously made me laugh out loud. Haven't you heard of sarcasm? Get a sense of humor please!
Also I doubt I would hurt the QC cast's feelings because I spelt their name wrong but that would be amusing if it ended up in a one of the next strips.[see my quickly done not so great example but whatever ]

Dear that entire quote tunnel:
You suck.

I think you suck more for giving a very uncreative response.
Really being mean for no reason isn't that amusing.
