"Great arts...do not make Great Artists..."

If you didn't know, I've moved my arts elsewhere.

tanukiyasha has verbalized my thoughts on this perfectly.
It's true too. Rather pathetic if you see it from a 'little people's' point of view too.
For a while now, there are artists out there that I felt I'd be honored to do a trade art with. Not only because their arts are amazing, but because I thought it would be a good chance to continue the practice of my calligraphy arts. I thank dearly all those who reply to me. Even with a 'no' or a 'no thank you' or anything like that. Although it's slightly painful to get rejected in even the rudest of ways like 'I need money instead' or things like that, it's nothing compared to as painful as it is to be flat-out ignored.
I don't know what it is or why they'd do it. Is it because they think that they don't need to, or is it just that hey don't want to? Either way, it's really rude, and a rather annoying spit in the face for us aspiring artists, or just normal furs willing to make a new friend.
As Tanuki stated, not every person wanting to be your friend wants to mooch free arts off of you, all they want is *gasps* real friendship with someone they think is a nice person. But ignoring that person altogether is more or less proof that you weren't worth talking to in the first place. I'm not talking about those that scan their mail and read it, then wait a little bit to respond when you're less busy, but...when you read it, it's BS not to reply, plain and simple.

Dear Gami."
This is a test.
After copious amounts of furs whining about you being too full of yourself to respond to anyone on FA.
I'm testing it.
Simply respond to this PM
Now, I play the waiting game.

And guess what!
NOTHING :D
And I have found that even some of the greatest artists, like every other human, differ in their approach at the world.
While I respect what this says, I also feel it is not any business to reply to things like PMs and what not to uphold a
status of being a 'decent human being' just as much as those who keep in contact and seem nice aren't actually douche
bags behind all the fronts.
I honestly have found respecting art is a lot less painful than respecting the artist and their artwork. Tying them
together with their work may lead to disappointment or question as to why they are how they are, when most simply
want to leave it at that of which they joined such communities. Artists posting their artwork, without a said code of
conduct on how to deal with others, even if it may be rude.
Long story short, we should uphold all artists and their abilities and bask less on personal matters,
but in the same nature, praise those who /do/ feel they are capable of establishing and showing a little civil nature now
and then. It's a hit and miss. But why not learn from the rest and be the artist you feel there should be more of?
This, in my opinion, is heaps more admirable and valuable of your time.
And I already know you`re a grand person,
