scarith Rip Off
13 years ago
You think artists have a point when they do not wish to do a commission until they are paid? Well the sword cuts both ways.
I commissioned Scarith to write a story for me... to the tune of $100.00
I do not mind if it didn't come out the way I expected, but what I mind is, not getting much at all... (about 1/2 after badgering)
Strings of excuses...
I'd e-mail's and notes on FA going unanswered until I said I would Blog about it
Then the promises, the "well I had comp problems, family....etc.
I got 1/4 (nice work actually) then more of the above... followed by a PROMISE if he did not have it ALL done in a week, I'd get a 50% refund.
The last I got was scarith sent me another 1/4 (8 pages of nonstop stooge no plot despite my feed back asking for it) and a PROMISE that within 24 hours he had the last HALF and woudl send it (even if it was spooge I'd have said ok...just not a commission I'd make again)
That was 3 weeks ago...and I suppose my e-mail is on an ignore list....my notes and e-mails go unreplied to.
Beware this person.... willing to take $ the moment it is offered but doesn't feel that this entitles his customer to any form of service (and teh ONLY think I asked is he reply and keep me appraised of his progress)
I suppose he's gone now but warn others of his habits

You bought a furry story, you're auto-condemned to Paypal. even if it's clean, he can just say "child beastiality porn" in response to the complaint, and banned for life.
It's for both artists and commissioners.
However, if you're being cheated that badly, it might be worth the trouble posting.
