I support NOT being an asshole

Description

Ok this is my first time making a stamp, please bear with me while I straighten it out and figure out how to do the damn thing.

Onto the message....
The one thing I've noticed lately that really, really ruffles my feathers all the wrong way is the way people are treating teenagers/pre-teens who are leaving negative comments on their deviations (this is made with taxidermy deviations in mind.)

Remember people, when you're young you think your opinions are solid and anything out of your moral standards is absolutely wrong.
When you're young and stupid, you make stupid comments.
If you see something you really don't like, you're going to go tell that person what you think of them.
If you get a nasty, sarcastic comment back, you're only going to get upset and argue it further. If you get a polite, informative comment back, you're going to stop and think about it a little bit.

So, what are you going to do when you get some idiot youngster commenting on your deviation telling you what a monster you are?
Well I'm telling you now, being rude, sarcastic, calling names, swearing and being a complete and utter prick does NOT make you a respectable person.

You don't have to be polite and spoonfeed said commenter sweet words. You don't have to apologise for offending said person.
You also don't have to tell them they're stupid and ignorant and their opinion is wrong.
You just need to have a little respect and remember the golden rule: Treat others how you'd like to be treated.

You'll actually find a lot of these negative commenters will stop and take a closer look at what you're doing, and maybe even ask questions and learn the facts before forming a new opinion.

And remember kids, two wrongs DO NOT make a right!!

As for you useless twits out there who do respond with sarcasm and insults.... I really hope you're proud of yourselves. Honestly.

Okay. I'm going to point out some flaws. The stamp itself needs a transparent edge if you are going to use an edge like that. If you can't make a transparent edge because you are using paint I suggest using gimp or another editor. There are lots of free ones out there.

The stamp is also quite bland. A picture of an actual teenager or something else might liven things up a bit.

However, you did make the text contrast against the background color and it is clearly readable. Not to mention the text is centered. So it looks like effort was put into it. That is something a lot of stamp makers don't do or don't grasp at first. Good job.
