This whole thread made something I was excited about make me feel like absolute shit all day and ignore people in my real life. So while, it may not have been intended to be dragged or dog piling. There is a real human at the end of this side of the computer. The sarcasm and calling into question my ability or want to talk to a real human was insulting.

So yeah, the end result will be a more positive experience, but it made me feel like shit and have a bad day and ultimately that's not a good thing. Whether or not the "criticism" was true, it was not really nice or positive. There were some exceptions, but overall it's is what I've come and learned to expect and accept from this site.

The vast majority of the criticism you're referring to was just calling out what was wrong with it. A handful of sarcastic comments are inevitable when it comes to situations like this, but overall I don't see how calling an AI logo being submitted as an officially announced team's branding is crossing the line. This is an internet forum and people can say their piece on things as they see it, especially since it was something you explicitly asked for at the top of the post.

As for what to expect/accept from the site, I think that's a bit of a cop out tbh. I don't know where your expectations or what you've come to accept from the site come from, the site has gone through a multitude of changes to go towards a much more neutral and friendly community. The site is not even recognizable from 2 to 4 years ago really. In this thread I can't even see anything that I would describe as dogpiling; if you didn't want multiple people commenting on the same thing, maybe the best place to post AI generated content would've been private DMs with people?
