I suspect in this case he was quoting the other person directly, rather than trying to diminish the title as it applies to asset artists. This is an increasingly common way to use quotes in textual conversations, as a way to clarify which noun is being discussed. I'm not sure if its "correct" but it's increasingly common. Rephrased (accurately for intent) I thought it would be: > Just to clarify, when you say "I am an artist and I love playing the games I've made with friends and strangers", do you mean artist as in the game-asset creator type of artist, or artist as in a romanticized version of a software engineer? I could be wrong. Maybe he is just being a dick. But I primarily saw a somewhat more charitable interpretation.
