Did I really need more drama and/or stupidity?

Well, apparently one of the artists I've commissioned thought I did.
Checked out the submission notifications. Saw one that I thought was cute. Clicked to ad to favorites.
That's one of the weirdest (but highly useful) things about # If you get blocked by someone you were following, you will still continue to receive updates. So you won't even know that you've been blocked until you try to fave or comment on something.
Not a freakin' clue as to when or why they did it. Which, for the record, is the only reason I take parting shots at people before I block them: Because even the biggest shitbag in Shitbagistan deserves to at least know the precise moment they crossed the line (regardless of whether they will use that knowledge in the future to avoid it or repeat it).
Doing it quietly, IMO, implies, at best, a great deal of cowardice, and at worst an awareness that they have no good reason and want to avoid it altogether -- to take no chance whatsoever that a neutral third party might see their final comment and respond to it with a "WTF is this?!"
(groan) So, that warning I gave last week about right-clicking/saving-as anything in my gallery? Consider that expanded to the whole gallery once again. I can't identify which pieces may be taken down without risking a strike for "calling out" the artist.
But I will give this one hint: While the artist wants absolutely nothing to do with ME ever again, they still evidentially want to keep having to do with my OCs. Everything I ever commissioned and reposted is still also in their gallery.
I've long said my characters were free to use however desired by anyone -- that I would show just as much tolerance for how mine are used as I would hope Disney, GameFreak etc. would be with me if they saw what I've done with theirs... But there's just something about this -- about wanting to make use of my characters whilst wanting absolutely nothing to do with me -- that I find deeply offensive.
So the warning is up again: Right-click/save-as anything you would miss. Even if you faved the original postings like I usually instruct people to do in my descriptions. My updated policy on the use of my characters: You can do whatever you want except try to divorce them from their creator.

You cannot favorite a submission by someone who has blocked you.

But the relevant bit is that stuff may be coming out of my gallery because of it. And I hate when I'm browsing through my faves and come across that dead link notice (especially if I don't remember what used to be there), so I always try to let people know it could happen beforehand.
So since this reply went through, you now know it was definitely not LRD.
