No, you really need to stop with this. You should know very well I've become quite a well-respected animator (albeit lazy and lacking time to do much recently), 15 years old, and clearly not retarded.
Your "art is art" comment for -rep'ing me is a terrible reason. The Quick-Crit thread in my eyes, has been about art (yes we know that)...but what you're doing is abusing it, ruining other people's spotlight and opportunity. I've seen it happen dozens of times beforehand, and it pisses me off. It even happened to me:
I remember one time I posted a video with a nice set of animations I had worked hard on for the past weeks or so, putting it together and showing it in this thread hoping for some great critique from the other animators around here, as well as the non-animators since they would mostly be the ones using my animations meaning their opinions matter greatly to me.
Know what happened? Someone, I forget who, came in and posted some barely-started model of whatever. Everyone completely ignored what I had posted after that, and it just made. me. sick.
Why is there not a rule against this (posting work before another receives comments)? In no way is it fair to the person who worked damn hard on something and really wanted to see what others thought...then they get a big "fuck you" in their face and no one gives a shit about what they did anymore because "Oh look a few modeled planes! Let's comment on this!"
I don't intend to start an argument, I just really want to bring up this topic up and learn why people are so inconsiderate, and why nothing is ever done to fix the wrongs done.
