Commission queue?
6 years ago
General
I need some advice on how to handle commissions.
Basically I'm not sure how to handle commission inquires when they come in before new slots are opened. Do I accept them? Do I add them to a queue like system? My only worry with that method is that work would eventually pile up.
Am I obligated to let the people who message me before commission slots are opened know and message them back about when I'm opening commissions? I feel bad if I give open slots to newer people who were quick to message me when I post a notice.
I dunno but for now I'm reaching back to the peeps in my FA notebox and giving them the next set of slots. I hope I didn't cause any inconvenience to any one who's waited for the previous slots to clear up.
(also I am aware that I accidentally added a 6th slot and left it empty soryy it was supposed to be left at 5)
And also I plan to push myself with the next set and experiment on how timely I can be owo (don't worry I wont die I hope)

1. Open streams like you have in the past. No heads up, No specific time, just open them and let people grab slots.
2. Two or three days in advance announce that your going to be opening them at a specific time with instructions of what time zone your in so everyone understands. People that really want something can wait hitting F5 and grab it.
If there are cases where someone that wants to comm you but hasn't been able to grab a slot when you open them, take care of them and then open back up the public.
And dont have a 6th slot on your front page if you're only open to 5 you silly goose. xD
