When I first started the requesting business, I was estastic about being able to draw for people. But now, it just got out of hand. It's not fun anymore. Especially with people who think it's FUN to be a complete and total jerk for all the hard work you've done for people. I spent TONS of money on art supplies so I could draw for people I don't even know, (or don't want to know, in some cases.) And all I ask in return in a please and thank you and not to steal it. Of all my requestors the entire time I was doing requesting, more then HALF never said please or thank you. And I even found one person USING my image and never crediting. It hurts. I never thought I'd have to make a wall of shame, but oh no, you proved me wrong. It sickens me, and it shows me that I can't even trust some people. See where I'm going with this? I hope so.
I totally lost all faith and inspiration to keep ths site running. It got boring. And when people don't respect your rules... it just gets annoying. I also never found myself suitable for the job, and in fact, I was surprised I was even picked to be a final staff. Though I was grateful to MeowthGal for her decision, I felt it never should've belonged to me. There's tons of people who are more talented than me, who deserved the position. I even got some people mad at ME because they "wanted my spot SOOO badly!" Why people would get jealous is beyond me.
As for the staff, you guys are awesome. Best of luck to you all in the future. ^_^
Overall, I had a fun time. But it's time to move on. As for the requests, sorry but you're not getting them. The art trades... you'll see them when I get around to it.
If you need to get in touch with me, you know where I am.
Take care you guys.
