"Rinse and repeat." Well said Stephen, and so true.

Hello everybody,

I've been reading this forum for a few years, I've just never registered for the forum until now. I've taken a workshop from Chris Campbell, and recognize a few other names here. I've been doing pottery for about 15 years on and off, and have recently resigned from my job as a graphic designer in order to pursue pottery as my full time career.

Stephen (the spineless troll as he's been called here), is my husband. He is not a potter yet, but is learning. Mostly, he supports me by making glazes and mixing clay for me. His interest in coming here is the same as mine; to learn, ask questions and get involved in the community. He is also learning to throw pots. I assure you he's not a troll, in fact he's a pretty great guy.

All he meant by his post was that a few people here seem to take enjoyment in being cruel, rude and obnixous. I think he was surprised that people would risk their reputation in business, as was I. He wasn't trying to take any "pot shots" at the group. After reading the frenzy of posts, I think it is obvious who the wolves in the pack are, it's not that complicated.

The majority of posters here are professional, respectful people, and for that reason we will both continue to visit this site and learn from those people. To those people I would like to say hello! To the others, I will quickly discover how to use the ignore button, so don't bother attacking me. I won't play.

Thanks for allowing me to add to this discussion.

This and the very first post sound to me like ' I'm not one to cause trouble BUT'... just sayin' T

I knew there had to be more than one troll because they were pushing that negative button so fast they seem to have hit some people by accident while aiming for me. Also I was guessing that he wasn't even a potter.

Jim, are you suggesting that YOU are the wolf in the pack?! ....more eyerolling....T

p.s is this negative rating gonna hurt my perfessional K rear?

Ya, I get that, I make these little turtle pots as souvenirs from my village. After doing different colour combos finally thought that the green and blue ones looked better then the purple/yellow ones and what do you know.....the purple ones sold out first so now I am left with a whack of green ones...T
