Seriously, shut the fuck up. If you don't like paypal, oh noes, find another service. It's their service, play by their rules. Instead of QQing about it you should all be discrete. Don't put "Two dogs fucking eachother" in the transaction description. Don't post anything about FA. "Artwork Commission" won't raise any flags. They can do whatever the heck they want and at their own discretion, so the best you can do is not fucking spill the beans over what you just commissioned/purchased.
Yes I'm aware of that e-mail message circulating, this doesn't mean you should be overly specific in your transaction details.
Alternative Services:
Google Checkout
Square Transaction Services

This is as bad as Notch tweeting non stop about how shitty a group was at Minecon based on a rumor.
people are just jumping the gun Lol :3
...That said, if we're talking about furs getting pissed off over it, I'm immediately inclined to think that the furs are the ones who did something stupid. (You're supposed to send the money as a gift so the artist doesn't have to pay transaction fees anyway, asshats.)
But I will never, ever use Paypal to receive payments. I've just heard way too many horror stories of them seizing money when they "detect" fraud. And you have no recourse since they're not registered as a bank in the US. In other words, at any moment, for any reason, they can steal all of the money in the account you have with them. And you can't do shit about it. It is a truly horrible service.
Smart guy : *sends money with description* : ME WANTS COMMISSION. *Victory theme music*
I don't see Paypal is terrible, unless you touched the rules.
