i sorta wished i saved it XD ughhhh i hate when artist delete content

It wasn't meant for folks to have. Sorry but they did the right thing. Another person's distress isn't your fap fodder.

I'm not saying he shouldn't have but that doesn't mean I can't be disappointed, I like all of his work.

Well i'm sure Ruffy will have another awesome piece ready to post soon, so the wait for new art won't be too long hopefully.

I appreciate your enthusiasm, I'll have new art done as soon as I can. ^^

I apologize i didn't mean to harp on you for your decision, you know im a huge fan of yours and i love everything you do.

Yes it was when the art in question wasn't approved to be made. It was Noben's characters, she has every right to request the art be removed. That's kind of a disrespectful question. Let's not beat up on either Noben nor Ruffy for what happened, it's between them.

A note has been sent, an apology has been made. This kind of talk right now demeans everything Ruffy is doing which is actually very good. Ruffy felt the need to publicly apologize for hurting another artists feelings, he's making it so Noben can't miss it, He's doing everything right at this time to make sure no bad blood exists between them.

Not sure of the piece in question but, you have done the right thing.

Thanks Tosh! ^^

Well that's a lil bummer. It is good you are trying to make amends I suppose I got to see a bit of it before termination...either way~ Don't get to bent outta shape the excitement can sure get the best of us! I hope all things return to normal and things turn out well

Everything is fine now. ^^ I'll be working on new commissions now.

Well that's the best news I've heard all day~ Glad all is well now

Thank you for taking it down, and apology accepted. I got your note, and I'm sorry if this has caused any drama or frustration.

No problem, and thank you for accepting it. ^^

Oh man, should of saved it :(

Props to you, Ruffy. You did good. For those of us that got to see it, we were able to appreciate the work you put into it. However, those who did and did not see it alike can all appreciate your actions here... not as an artist, but as a decent human being. To man up and make a public apology like this... that's admirable.

Something like this can easily boil over into a ridiculous drama filled A's Fans VS B's Fans nonsense because of the Drama Llama likes to lurk FA. My respect to both you and  Noben in handling this like civilized adults.

We all do a lot of things and we all do plenty of mistakes, but by owning up to your actions still helps you all be a better person and learning from it too. I should know bro, I've done that and I did what I do to show my apology

Reminds me of a situation I had with who is now my ex-best friend for like...... 5 years now.

But yeah... I remember I did a public apology to this person for a personal matter just to show how sorry I was for drawing this thing about a character I made for her, without permission. There are some strings that were attached with this picture I drew, that were broken, and it caused ME to look like a bad guy. Long story short, some pervy guy who wanted me to draw a sexy pics of my best friend's character, asked if I could make this secret pic for him.(Like I've done of Rosalina, and Peach I believe, a couple times before) I DID consider him a friend, so I said yes to drawing it, IF HE KEPT IT A SECRET. Over time, he got creepier and more disrespectful to my best friend at the time, so I had to stand up for her, over this guy who was at one point a cool friend. At some point in time, he was getting mad that I defended her over taking his side of the argument, so he decided to PM the pic I made for him, to her. :/Dick move..... I know. She didn't like it(nor do I think she fully saw it, cuz she told me she sent the pic to a mutual friend of ours to see if it was "safe to see"), and was not thrilled with the fact that I drew her character in such a fashion. So much so that she stopped talking to me for a while. I felt bad...... I know what I did was wrong and I did deserve the reaction I got for doing such a thing without asking her permission, or informing her about it.

No... this thing wasn't what led to our friendship ending. This was probably a factor, but I'd say over the past 3-4 years after that incident, our friendship was just full of drama and questioning the closeness we once had as ACTUAL FRIENDS...

Anyways..... whatever whatever all that stuff. My life has been so much better since ending that friendship. As for you.... I hope all is forgivable between you and your friend.
