Awesome! I think I'll add you on DA~ ^^ I'm glad you didn't convert to the lesser-know art sites like the damn hipsters! XD

so when does it not become hipster to join a 'lesser known' art site? just curious

Ugh, pretend I didn't say anything, I don't want to start an argument, I was just stating my opinion.

XD I'm just confused on whats considered hipster most of the time, sorry if it came out as hostile in anyway.

Oh darn, then I took that the seriously wrong way. *chokes* I'm so sorry. I didn't want to start an argument and it felt like you were asking for it. T^T
It's been a long day, and I have bi-polar, I'm so sorry I nearly mistook you for them dorky kids who pick fights online. But you're a mature adult, who's better than me because sometimes I just lose my shit and take it out on the world. Bollocks. T^T

I'm really really sorry.
To clear up, I was just angry at the hipsters, and yeah, I guess none of the other art sites are hipster, but it bugged me that other people were getting pissed at FA's hiatus, saying the staff should be shot, despite this site being a free community site, that the morons saying that stuff didn't have anything better to do with their time than be online. -.-;

I hope I didn't make an enemy, I didn't want to, but I should've held my tongue. T^T

well you didn't make an enemy out of me, and I get what you're saying with people getting angry over something they have access to for free, and over reacting with threats of violence or any form of harassment.
though I do have to say, that FA downtime is a problem for people who make money through this site through commissions and I've known a few that have had their emails available but commissioners make no attempt to contact them, so a second fall back art-site may be a good alternative, for the downtime of FA.

Heh, that's good. ^^;
But yeah, it's so true, and it really bugged me that people blame the staff. It's a hard job keeping up a free website on such a big server.
While that may be true, I believe that ALL artists and commissioners should swap e-mail addresses as to avoid communication failures. Relying on websites for communication is unreliable, and everyone here knows it. :/ Be more prepared, artists! When I take commissions, the first thing I ask for is an e-mail address that I know to be on a reliable server (g-mail, hotmail, virginmedia etc)

You has a weasyl too!
