Hmmmmmmm...is this why?

As you have probably garnered from my last journal entry, titled "Quit--blocking me", I'm feeling disappointed in some of the patrons here.
I believe the reason why they are doing things to make me roll my eyes and groan is because of this journal entry, dated November 29th, 2010:
Okay, FA, what's wrong with you now? I tried to fave a couple of awesome pics of some very talented and imaginative artists' stuff and instead you're giving me a severe case of civil cock-block. Are you glitching, or is it me? Or even worse, are you, FA, or somebody else trippin' or hackin' on me for another tissue paper-thin reason again?
I'm SORRy I BLABBED about e621. I'm sorry people don't like to pay for art that should usually be a shit-load much cheaper, or free completely because it is on the net. I am sorry that there is no such thing as a sacred subject or hiding place on the internet(or at anywhere else). I'm sorry that your strange rules and glitches, and personal conundrums and catch-22's of status and behavior are more mixed-up and misguided than they used to be, and that DeviantArt is no longer the safe-haven it once was for artists of pretty much everything who no longer wanted to be associated with you...
But you know what?
Shit happens... all the time...be grown up and just address the problem with an open mind and a slow rise to anger and suspicion and you'll be fine.
Don't waste my time. My life is too precarious (YES, precarious, not PRECIOUS) and difficult enough with having to be between jobs again and not even seeing a paycheck since September (which was only $70.00, by the way for a much too short amount of hours in one week). Even if you do something horrible to me all it's going to be is one cheap, quick thrill with small and petty results. Just like every bully, all of your shitty attempts at feeling big and dominant are fleeting.
And that goes for all of the rest of you. Don't judge me unless you WANT someone like me judging you.
There is nothing more pathetic than thinking you are so high and mighty and yet still having someone you fucked over still be able to heckle and embarrass you by showing you to other people what a waste of space you really are.
And just remember something else...I'm just one of a nightmarishly real legion of others.
If you don't want your shit shut down then I suggest you start chilling the fuck out and start following the advice of a "poor, pathetic little nobody."
Peace.
Now I didn't think of this being the thing to set people off...until I remembered this comment, by one
slash125 ,
"Wait did you just say that the art people put their work into should be free or extremely cheap?"
To that I replied, within a week or so of time, "No-no-no. Free if it is not a commission, is old as dirt, or not part of a pay site. And cheap-ER, not extremely cheap.
Don't be ridiculous.
I think a pencil sketch should be $5.00 to $10.00 depending on the amount of detail put into it. $5.00 should be for just a character sketch, and inked and a little better detailed should start at an even $10.00. The other artists are asking for too much these days. If you ask for too much money for too long people are gonna stop coming to you. The U.S. businesses are getting the hint, so why aren't some of the better furry artists?"
Look, the free world is in a financial toilet right now. I'm currently without a job or any money of my own and have to beg for work from Labor Ready (INC.), and I haven't been sent out to a client, or gotten any bread yet... If you are lucky enough to have a job, then thank your lucky stars and stop asking for so much funding for your extracurricular activity. Every little nickle and dime counts, so don't take it for granted.
Don't you bull-crap me, some of you STILL think that $15 to $25.00 dollars(American) is really cheap for a pencil sketch.
Uh, no it ain't brothahs and sistahs...no- t'ain't. You can't live off of street-cred due to your art skills during a depression.
Oh wait, I'm sorry, "RE-cession". The bullshitically correct term is "recession".
