i feel like i may have missed some/some might be out of order.
I've had a lot on my mind so I didn't really react well either/was kinda immature but I don't really have a lot of patience for these kinds of people.
According to him he has a "hundred thousand dollar salary" and buys all this art and is some hot shit or something idk. If you know any of the other works and who the belong to, let me know and I'll try to contact more people. I sourced one of the images to the artist Rov and contacted the client via notes on FA so I already know he's a liar.
I handled that so poorly lmao, hoity toity "eat my ass" backfired to shit.
anyway. I have zero patience for people who steal art/characters and repost without credit, if you're account is all just that, porn, and 'yiff role-plays', a lot of people won't have a very good opinion of you.
I'm just gonna start blocking people like that outright ffs.
might delete later, this wasn't a super savory reaction from me and I tend to try to look much better in public image, but wow was this stupid and annoying

I need to be more unscrupulous and hit that block button HARD
I try to give people the benefit of the doubt but this is kinda the reason I never have people to talk to lol
that usually works with the people trying to strong arm you into free art, I should have... nOT said that to a basic bitch furry who's twitter is all porn
I find it increasingly difficult to get a "fuck off" to work as well as it did a few years ago.
Somewhat luckily I have someone that helps me manage what I say to people now days.
He will listen for me to madly start typing and I will hear a calm "is that such a good idea?" Or "ahem. Do you REALLY need to have an opinion here?"
I will be like "YEA BUT!..."
-angrily starts hitting backspace-
People are always like "your so sweet and professional!"
Yea that's cause you don't see the other half of what I had typed but deleted ._.
i try to keep my public online stuff pretty watered down lately and avoid voicing opinions publicly. to be honest though people would interact a bit more on my dA/FA when I was a bit more of an angry flaming kid and would post my dumb opinions haha.
i've definitely gotten more mild but woah can i be stubborn with a disrespectful asshole.
It might be ugly, but we live in a world with people who have uglier views of entitlement.
Sorry you had to deal with such a prick.
I try to make sure to clearly sign my work legibly, watermark, and downsize it so if you swipe it, you get a pixellated/low res version and the buyer doesn't need to worry about someone taking the full res unwatermarked work.
lately the big new fad is a website with bots/live users that go o patreon, become a patron, chargeback their payment, steal all paywalled art, and upload it online. its so shitty and scummy, the fandom sometimes really doesn't deserve artists. I'm gonna try to be more proactive about blocking and surround myself with an audience that doesn't disrespect artists and commissioners or act gross.
thats the big reason why i put ugly watermark in the middle of my OCs art. these fckers have no idea how disappointing to see our nicely created/built characters used in poor yiff RP.
I figure it's good to know who these people are and what they did too so others can block them as well. Someone on my dA told me I should have blurred out the name so that "your watchers don't attack them"
ok because like, people who are disgusting and nasty deserve anonymity to keep being gross and nasty
"I'm incapable of imagining people who aren't as worthlessly idiotic as me, therefor everyone must be like me."
Sorry buddy. I wouldn't even be okay with not crediting the art I paid for, let alone stealing someone else's art to use.
