Need to state this (Warning: may be offensive)

So lately I have noticed something that is really irritating to a lot of people and triggered me too.
There are artists out there who are going through rough times and need all the support and reassurance they can get. Yet some people think it's ok to stab them in the back with a charge back threat on a commission when the artist is already low and depending on money. That is incredibly rude and unasked for. You may be waiting for a commission for quite a while but you also need to keep in mind that there are people who ordered things BEFORE you did and that they come first. You have been waiting for a month or two? Well bu hu some people wait patiently for a whole year and it's very unlikely that a commission will take much longer. KEEP IN MIND: This behavior often DEMOTIVATES the artist and makes them not want to work on your commission, as in my case. We are not machines that work 24/7. We have a social life just like you do.
Yet another thing I have noticed is the fact that some people basically hunt the artists activity down and whenever they try to earn money for groceries or whatever LIVE IMPORTANT thing they IMMEDIATELY note the artist and start threatening them. That is not ok people. You are waiting and getting impatient I get it but adding fuel to the fire won't do shit. In fact it only stresses the both of you out.
Lately I have been spammed by people on social media and private messengers and it's really getting on my nerves. I am sure I am not the only one here. If you know that people are busy with their lives then (this is going into my own personal point of view) it's ok to send them a message yes but don't spam that someone and have their inbox explode x-x
It's best to just wait for the person to reply until they are ready who knows what they are going through that you don't see. Let them be online and active online, maybe they just need a break and some distraction? In my case this behavior actually triggers me and makes me want to delete messengers like Skype ugh.
Rant over.
Please pay attention to the warning in the title and don't get butthurt by this ok?
