Of course this is my opinion, and my opinion's argument is that people who say "Art is subjective" are using that phrase incorrectly. There is a lot of theory behind art (which I have not learned myself) and I know that there is a measure of formality to art as well, so since that was my argument and my point, you flailing your diploma or whatever it is you have to reduce the credibility of my post is nothing more than snobbism, imho.

Wow, that got personal really fast.

Forget it.

Did you expect me to be nice about that?

"That" being this post:

Have you mastered in art and musical theory? Then tell us who are the reigning authorities in art appreciation and critique? What are the fundamentals to art and design? Then also explain how this applies to game design...

So, basicallly, you react poorly when someone asks legitimate questions to see if you have the basic knowledge necessary to suport your position...

Because... then it puts to light the fact that you don't have said knowledge?

One thing is sure, Marucha didn't ask you in an aggressive way or anything. But your answer to her did indeed put into question any credibility you could have about this topic.
