# It's only what you make of it

a compo isn't crap as such, it's multiple entries like this that make it so

# beg to differ there.
The compo is crap but not because there can be no ideas, it's crap because it's another one that ruins the enjoyment of b3ta for another week with a tirade of images that have no bearing on the competition and could have been made by a thalidomide monkey with nothing more than shit and a wall to work with. I find myself longing for the weekend. At least it slows down and I can post stuff that people will actually see.

# yeah
I don't care much for posting much compo related stuff anyway. I only do it when I have a good idea for it, which isn't every week.

I just hope people'll see that you don't HAVE to post anything compo related.
Just post something nice, and none of that "it's a shit compo, and this is shit, but I'm going to post it anyway" stuff.

And I'm not referring to you, mister Pasanonic.

# yes exactly that
if I am "O_O" at the compo I don't post anything

I'm not going to tell anyone anything they post is shit, unless they are being an utter twat

# well...
I dunno

some folk don't want to go to any effort, some do

there's always going to be compos that give you the meh and those that give you ideas

just luck of the draw innit, as much as anything else

# I disagree
It's the people who are crap. I think this is a pretty good compo. The ide of trying to use your brain to figure out a way of making pictures without using picture type software is a good one.

Unfortunately most people are too stupid to think and we get loads of crap entries. It's the same with any compo. Look at last week's - one of the best compos for ages but got swamped with idiots whose skill amounts to adding a cock to something.

# well yeah, that was kinda my point
but I'd have thought that anyone with sense would have forseen it and I'd also have thought that most b3tards would have the self-awareness to say to themselves " I can't post that, it really is utter threadwasting shit"
