Being blocked over a note; wow...
4 months ago
Just decided to share such story because it's hilarious.
Won't be sharing name since I respect FA polities.
So over a year ago, I saw an adoptables artist (I love her designs so much still) but she was making agressive reminder for her designs (Like every 3-4 hours) and since FA polities said then reminder must be done every 24H. I decided to be polite and I send her a 'private note' to remind her of the polities (I mean, not everyone read theses and I do remember that a few years ago; such reminders were allowed)
So I send her the note but she never reply to me (I know she saw the note) But the reminder keep on groing. So I send her a new note; still ignored.
I decide to make a report ticket. I mean; I'm a artist and I sell adoptables as well and I think it,s important that we all follow the rules and since I send her 2 notes, which she ingored. I decided to escalade.
After my ticket; I saw that the reminder really kind of stopped and for me I was like; ok, case over.
But now; a year later. I decided to re-watch this artist and then my inbox in overly filled with a TONS of agressive reminder. So again; I decide to send her a note and guess what? She blocked me!
So what I did; a new ticket linked with the first one I did a year ago :)
Sure tired of people thinking that blocking would allow them to do what they want. Their's rule to be follow and damn; if I would be paid to be a moderator. I think I would like such job!
Anyway it was my story of the day; have fun ;)

FA+

it's just crazy how some people are just... I don't even know how to describe it; it's just immature as hell.
Like for this artist; it's not like I decided to make a public comment to rub the fact on her face. I did it politly and in a note and she got offended.
I've unfollowed several artists because of the excessive reminders, but blocking you is a whole other level of rude
Something similar happened to me years ago... I commissioned an artist and I was quite new to that. I did a little mistake and the artist went so bad at me. At the time; my english was so bad and I was sure trying to understand my mistake but the artist just blocked me and never refunded my money... (At least a friend of mine then later told me how to make a charge back because I mean... I paid them and they canceled all without telling me why....
I mean; I sometime have old adopts (like 1 month old) and I sometime repost them to boost it.
Just let me know.
Imagine it, if you see an artist with a few dozen adopts that haven't been sold in over a few months, you're going to wonder if there is a reason why they haven't gotten sold.
I sadly do that... I repost my old adopt but at least I'm often saying that I'm reposting to boost. And often; I do lower the price or do mofification to my design. (mostly changing colors)
Spammers though? they're everywhere
I don't think you were doing anything wrong, to be completely honest. Especially nothing worthy of a block.
I dislike posting reminders for my content, for a variety of reasons, I like to just sit and wait. I've seen this EXACT behavior on so many levels. The aggressive reminders, the random blocking, all of it. It's just.... No. Not alright. People really should DO BETTER.
but, i've also received some crazy notes too when i used to make art. had one person even want me to sell them an adopt i got from you like right after i bought it. x.x
blocking someone after a polite reminder does seem super petty though.
