Deviant art has turned to shit.
9 years ago
I made a Dutch angel dragon base and said it was for personal use only.
Almost a month later I get a new watcher who says this
"i will use this but it would be fair to let everyone do adopt with this species ad someone in my facebook group is already doing adopts with it but i wont sto them. the thing is ļl join them and sell some adopt using this base. thanks for the base and your art is amazing."
I tell them no, its not for adoptables.
"i alrady am working on adopt right nw. and once iš done i will post it on da and facebok and better yet i will create a whole species of such character. it will be calld nightly hallows!"
I was pissed off at this point, so I told them I'd report all adopts they made with the base.
"then make me a similar base that i can make species on and sell adopts using it. >:( "
Then it was a shit storm of "Don'ts" vs "I'm gonna do it"
In the end I made a beware telling people not to buy any adopts from them if its on that base.
We get in another argument, and they delete their account. Fine by me, now they know not to be a greedy dick.
Today I get shown this

Not only are they selling adopts with my base.
The dickhead also is claiming it as a new species.
I am so fucking done with drawing bases.
People like this fuckwit have ruined it for me.
(also I apologize for my language, I'm just really angry about this)

I'm really sorry that you had to go through this! :(
(Also the watermark on the base...it's beautiful~ lol)
Also thanks :) I felt it was appropriate due to their behavior
Kind of tempted to just ditch dA but its the only other gallery that is mainstream. :/
