Ugh... Sorry No commission sign up today

11 years ago

Unfortunately Godaddy is still working on my credit card processing account.
They've been at it since Aug 05.
I can't even process the first 4.

I'm really not comfortable with those unprocessed orders sitting in the shopping cart so I've deleted them:unprocessed.

When I get this system up and running I'll start again. (And maybe those who have completed commissions might be able to send me the payment when that happens?)

--In other news, I'm still streaming my tactics elemental content creation this weekend. From 4pm est to questionmarks, Sat and Sunday, Aug 16th and 17th

Too true, shouldn't be this hard for people to do business though but yeah, here's hoping for the next time I guess ( hopefully without skipping out on work again lol)

Have you tried any other domain purchasing sites?
I've heard nothing but bad with GoDaddy
Dynadot seems good.

I'll give Dynadot a shot.
I can't cancel *all* of my godaddy accounts though.
APLibrary still runs on one.
I was hoping a simple payment gateway would be in their power tho

Don't give up, Fred. An option will show itself eventually.

Hope others will remember to give Fred those 100 $. I mean he got the job done, it's the internet company that is at fault for not processing the money correctly. Will keep the refund until next time.

we could always just gift it to him on paypal saying its for commissions cause technically it is true, if not hopefully something can be found.

Oh yeah already got the refund got to remember to give the money to you next time. If nothing else will work perhaps PayPal would work ?

Unfortunately he can't use paypal due to their stance on "adult content"....hence the issues :(

Stardust00 ~stardust00

Unless they gift it to him

awr74 ~awr74

Art Whore

Yeah as long as there is no mention of adult content it's usually not a issue, but I understand his need for cautions

Stardust00 ~stardust00

Watcher

Agreed, all they technically have to say is services rendered and all or that is was for a commission they technically don't have to mention it was nsfw and all but I understand the caution.

It's sad that artists need to worry about such things because of one group trying to force their beliefs and what not on others.

Stardust00 ~stardust00

I was just looking over the agreement and it states " certain sexually oriented materials and services."

awr74 ~awr74

Art Whore

Yeah, and because it's so vague they can cover a lot of things, but honestly I believe if there are no actual goods exchanged (ie digital commissions) and if payment is made correctly with no mention of adult content then I can't see what issue they could have. It would solve a lot of issues but that's not my call.

As much as I feel sorry for your predicament with Godaddy, I am glad that you have given us extra time before you take on more commissions. Gives us time to prepare, y'know?

In any case, I hope you'll solve the problem soon.
