Trust me I got the same type of messages and it's mostly built up from jealousy. Tokifuji is an amazing artist and its a goal for many to get something wonderful done by 'em.

Sadly some people are like that but with every bad apple there's 10 good ones.

I get that, it was just a bit hurtful because I wasn't expecting that, and it was my first time having kt happen.

It's a weird that I would end up on this journal a year later and see your post o.o

What a odd place the internet is.. Ehy Nubi?

I'm so sorry to hear about it. ; 3 ;

I came here for the same purpose: to be part of a community and be friendly to others and to show them my art in appreciation of being welcomed here.

It's a shame that you have to go through something like that. ; v ; Just keep doing what you're doing and keep moving forward. There may be people that even though you feel to be on good terms will leave you, but there will always be a person that will stay true to you and will never leave you.

Hope things get better for you. ; 3 ; *huggles*

I hope that it gets better too, thanks for your support - huggles-

Anything to help. >u<

honestly just sounds to me like they had a bad case of the wanting to be in your business, it is not their right to try berating you for doing something and act like an ass for getting something as simple as a commission, honestly good riddance they did you a favor by not being your friend

Yea I suppose you are right, it's just some people you don't expect it from and that's what gets to you.

thats the thing, if you expected it it wouldnt be betrayal, thats why its hard -hugs- so stay strong there are better out there

-hugs back gently- Okay, I'll try and keep strong. Thank you.

-kisses cheek- awesome to hear hun

It's unfortunate that you had to be subjected to that. Even when a friend shows a different color, take comfort in knowing that there are tons of others who think just like you do on this. I know I want the same thing you do, just to feel welcome and make friends. Finding some establishment in the community.

*hugs* don't stop being you! ^w^

-hugs back- mmhmm, I'm glad that some people don't think I'm shallow at least.

I just read this and literally just jaw dropped, theres so many things wrong that person on so many levels with this, Your not a stuck up person at all you didnt throw your money away to become popular, hell your a very kind person who writes on peoples wall "Thank you for the watch please feel free to message me anytime", thats humble and kindness something people lack nowadays you wanted to buy art for the sake of buying art, im here for moral support my friend!

Mm, I'll keep on being me, and I'll just push aside any negative things that anyone has to say about me. I really apprecaite your help.

Anytime please keep on being yourself dont let anyone else try to change you

if I may be so bold, but anyone that says that and acts like, well they only did you a favor, I too have recently gotten a little popular but my friends do not treat me any differently nor would I expect them too or ask them too, so as I said, they really just saved you the trouble of getting hurt much worse by so called friends.

Yea, I think that it would be best if I blocked them, they unblocked me to send another rude message so someone advised me to just ignore them. Just becasue someone gets popular doesn't mean that that is what they came here for.

Jealousy perhaps, as someone earlier stated, I can relate, I got art more for me cuz I wanted it, now I have a small fan base and I get stuff for them sometimes too, like my Padunk pic, and I plan for more hyper silliness to come <3

Happens from time to time, people can be spiteful over the smallest perceived slights, it's best to not take these kind of things personally; especially if the person blocked you. Obviously they weren't really friends with you.

Dealt with this a number of times over the years, not sure if it gets easier but you just get thicker skin to it.

This was my first experience with it so I think over time I will just ignore it.

I was gonna say something along the lines of people are pieces of shit and stuff but now I'm like, whatever.

I still apprecaite your support.

I have to admit, I think that Tokifuji is a bit on the exorbitant side of the price spectrum, and good as his art is, you are basically paying for the name. That said, it's your money to spend how you want. I don't think it's something for people to get bent out of shape about.

I cmissioned him because I really liked his art style an have been watching him for awhile, but I can see from your stand point.

This is why I'm scared to make friends on here because I'm afraid I'll get hurt, used, or lied to. It seems that this person wasn't being a true friend. real friends wouldn't judge each other. To me, it sounds like that person was jealous because you got an awesome art piece from that artist. Don't let it bother you. If you like doing what you're doing, then keep doing it. Don't let others force you to do something you don't wanna do. I...think I'm saying this right. I hope you feel better.

I do now, thank you for speaking your mind though.

Unfortunately, on the internet, you are in a very public place where everything you do will be viewed and interpreted by up to hundreds of millions of people. In FA terms, that generally means that if you get art or make art fairly regularly, you will inevitably become somewhat popular regardless. Given how many people youll interact with just by that alone, things like this are just bound to happen. It sucks :s The law of really big numbers is a bit of a dick, but at least it also means that Pi is really cool.

Yea, but like I said I'm not even seeking popularity, I just like to get art and make friends on here.

Live your own life. Walk with those who can accept you for who you are.

Mm, I'm gonna keep doing just that. I don't need people who are negative.

awwww how dare they... poor sweet bunny ^_^ its horrible to have a person you trust turn like that... and for what.. such a waste.
Don't listen to them though you are awesome and kind and not what they think you are! *offers huggles* you ever need someone to vent to I offer my service ^_^

Huggles- I appreciate that, and it did suck but I suppose everything happens for a reason.

All I can do is echo what others have said. Some people are just assholes and have no business opening their mouth. The best thing you can do is ignore their negativity and move on. As long as you're dwelling on it and letting it get to you you're just letting them win.

Just be that cheerful bun that I know and keep on being cute and cuddly. You know there are people you can reach out to if you ever need a shoulder or just a place to rant <3

Yea I know. And I am going to try my best to keep cheerful, I can't let other people's negativity get me down. I just have to keep my chin up and being myself.

I think I know well enough who you're referring to.

I think you might know who as well unfortunately...

He never was too bright when it comes to covering his tracks. Let us talk privately so you can warn others of this.

Alright, will do.

Sounds like just a jerk who you are better off with out. It's one thing to go off at a friend and be sour and apologize later but this person just sounds like an ass period

It's even more asinine when they're doing the same thing they berated Lex for. The dude's very fucked up in the head.

eh such is this fandom so many peopel here are hypocrits

Mm. But I'll be fine, Ive learned a good lesson from this and now I know their true colors. And I know that I have people I can rely on to be there for me~

Pretty much now you know to just not waste time with that person and sink time in to others

*random kitty hugs*

I will never understand why people think its okay to shame people for buying themselves art.

REAL ACTUAL PEOPLE DON'T FEEL THIS WAY ABOUT YOU

do what makes you happy, my old sona has easily 1000's of dollars worth or art and not once has anyone told me they thought I was trying to gain watchers or what not, I can't understand why someone feels the need to put someone down

and the fact they blocked you shows what a coward they are. I'm sorry but if you're going to speak your mind RUDELY to someone you best be BRAVE enough to hear their response

and boy I hope you're reading this.

wow I totally didn't read the date on this /blushes and walks away like an idiot

I hope that won't put you off the community here. As with any large group of people, you're going to find that some will use the anonymity of the internet to act like prats. They tend to be more visible than is justified because the majority, who aren't acting like prats, are too busy talking and having fun. Post the work you commission, the work gifted to you and the work you do, and enjoy... and let us enjoy along with you.
