There's a difference between criticism and nitpicking, a huge difference between offering suggestions and being bitchy for the sake of being bitchy.

Sometimes people don't understand the difference.

And then there's stating a person's personal preferences or opinions, with no actual regard to the artist or what he/she should do...

I'm not sure.  It appears to me there there is a very fine line between criticism and nitpicking.  Mind elaborating on the difference?

Well I do have my own idea of nitpicking.  But it seems to be different from his.

Ghostpaw had received a specific warning.  Ghostpaw is banned.
