That's a great reason to have more ice cream.I need more ice cream
As mentioned already, we do need Mythocentric, his talent and opinions. We also need tparo, for her talent and opinions. We want all of you to participate, and feel welcome here. It's human nature to say things or do things from time to time that can come across as biting, or having an edge. But as long as we can pull back from that and still get along, and have a respect for one another we should be just fine.
That deserves a quote.I love being an artist-- it's just the starving part I don't like.
so they can wave their canes and gnash their dentures
Its amazing how one program clicks for one person and another program doesn't and the other program is easy-peasy for a different person and they can't get their head around the one you can. Every one learns differently and comprehends things differently.
I did just that! Which is why I have owies on both sides of my mouth instead of just one side.
I also discovered I still need to be very cautious brushing the tooth that now has a crown. The gums below the crown both inside and outside are rather tender.

Hornet, as one of the original three moderators here, I've always found it incredibly easy to moderate. Like ... seriously. I've not once ever had to pull out a big stick ... much less a flimsy little twig.
I was a mod (or rather, a sysop, which is what we were known as back then) a good ... um ... 30 or 40 years ago? where I was CONSTANTLY pulling posts and warning members they needed to stop or they would be banned. I'm not sure if any of us liked when we had duty in that particular forum which was in the "kiddy" area of the site. To this day, I still have issues with Brad Pitt, because the worst offender used that as his name. Shoot ... for all I know, maybe he was the real Brad Pitt :wink:
I'm almost at a loss too to understand how HiveWire works sooo well with so little moderation. I believe it's a combination of the light touch in moderation; the influence of Chris, Lisa, and Alisa; and the members who are absolutely fabulous.
Quite possibly it might even be that HiveWire seems to have a reputation of not allowing the nastiness found elsewhere to happen here, and should anyone who thrives on being nasty and negative toward HiveWire step foot within our doors, they will be immediately banned for their lifetime. I'm not sure where that comes from, because I've never seen any indication that anyone isn't welcome here. It's only that behavior that isn't welcome here.
lol, Rae!
Well, I know we do have the reputation at other places of being "nice" which is said by some people with distain. I think it's awesome, and those who don't clearly realize that unless they tone things down and behave, they are NOT welcome to post here. I don't think we've had to ban anyone other than obvious trolls.
...DAZ has a program to create DIM files so it really shouldn't be a deal breaker (except its a little pricey for my tastes) called "content package assist". (hopefully ok to link here? if not just remove it ) Content Package Assist | 3D Models and 3D Software by Daz 3D
Right!Reading this particular thread should be enough to convince anyone that being nice does not stop a, sometimes heated, debate. The difference is you can have an adult debate and people respect your view and try hard not to make it personal.
YIKES!For quite a while I wondered how anywhere could be too nice but then I saw post, elsewhere I will make clear, where people openly admitted they love a flame war, saw it as entertainment and if it looked like cooling were not adverse to adding more coal to the fire. I don't understand the fun, it quickly became useless as they just went round in circles. It did however answer the question as to why some would think a place could be 'too nice'.
Hi, prixat, and welcome to the Hive if I've not welcomed you already!If this is an unsubtle hint that Hivewire should start offering DIM format, I would like to second that!
