#I put it in my TOS that yeah it'll take me a bit. Bc well. Real life happens

[twotonedsuicide]

My small yap session bc I'm bored

So spacehey just hit 1 million users and liek ,, it feels so weird 2 me

I joined the site 2 years ago when it only had around 480k - 500k users so I've seen a good chunk of the sites history unfold right by me

It's just such an amazing accomplishment I'm around 2 see happen and liek ,, it's nice that I've been on the site 4 so long ,, yet it makes me a bit more sad abt my plans on quitting / leaving it 4 a bit

My plan was 2 leave the site 4 as long as I wanted bc yeah it's a good site but the ppl on it r either super sensitive, super edgy or just not active

I get wanting 2 b a good person and positive influence ,, but obv there is such a thing as toxic positivity

I've also seen ppl harass users just 4 liking a simple movie or having a trait a particular person doesn't like

It's a good site and good idea but the ppl make it insufferable 2 b on daily

Another small issue I have w/ the site is the mod team

Ppl don't like the mods and it's mostly 4 good reasons

Yeah the mods have been cleaning up the gore spam and other nasty stuff off the site but they also unfairly ban/suspend ppl 4 little reason if any at all

I've almost got my acc on there suspended bc some1 reported my acc

I was confused y until a mod IMed me on there

Apparently some1 didn't like how I had a razor blade as my cursor and the graphic I added as a joke

(the graphic I was using below:)

I've had that graphic on my profile 4 months before that person actually reported it and the mods thought it was completely fine

I 1st put it on my profile way back in early March so it was considered fine 4 5 months

That's what I don't like abt the mods

They will get pressed over little graphics on some1s page but the second some1 starts spamming actual gore it'll take them at least half a hour 2 get rid of the account

They will also ban you the second you piss them off / get involved in the smallest of drama

I'm friends w/ some1 named gia who has been banned over 50 times on spacehey just 4 popping up and making a new acc

He only got involved in drama once b4 his acc got terminated

And every time he just pops up on the site and tries 2 use it like any1 else his accs get suspended

Ik it's against TOS 2 not make multiple accs but banning him over some petty drama that happened way back in April is just a bit unnecessary

He doesn't even interact w/ the ppl who were involved w/ that situation anymore

Every1 but the mods moved on

So now he has 2 use burner emails and a variety of display names and such just 2 b able 2 stay on the site

I get trying 2 minimize the problematic content on your site but just straight up banning ppl for a small situation that happened 3 months ago isn't exactly the best way 2 do things imo

There's a block button 4 a reason

If you don't like some1 on the site just block them and move on there's no need 4 the mods 2 ban both parties 4 what's essentially no good reason

That reminds me of another issue I have w/ some of the ppl on spacehey

I've had ppl get mad at me and question y i blocked random well known users on the site

I've had angry IMs from ppl asking me abt some small stuff I was involved in

There's just what seems 2 b cult followings around some of the popular users on the site

Like I'm srry I blocked them but it's my choice

If some1 doesn't like me I will just block and move on bc starting up something over something so insignificant is stupid

I've also gotten blocked by some of the popular users 4 no reason

If some1 blocks me 4 no reason I'll just block them back

I fear it's just the best thing 2 do

I won't go and make an alt acc just 2 ask them y they blocked me

It's their choice and that's that

I also have an issue w/ the rumors on the site

I've seen so much misinformation/rumors spread around abt ppl and I'm sick of it

If I see something abt some1 and it's that bad I'll just str8 up go and ask them like "hey is what X is saying abt u true ?"

I won't go around spreading it unless it's confirmed or there's too much evidence surrounding that particular info 4 it 2 b false

I've personally seen rumors abt me such as that I'm a tcc (true crime community) member and that I'm an awfully rude person

The tcc rumor only popped up when I asked a certain bad person who's part of that community abt some rumor floating around abt them

Yes I admit I do like some crime cases but I'm not a part of the community

I've only interacted w/ ppl from that community a handful of times and I only know abt some cases

In order 2 b part of a community u have 2 b committed 2 it , active in it and u have 2 enjoy the community

I do not like tcc since from what I've seen abt it , it's a community that idolizes and worships horrible ppl who committed heinous activities

I would not enjoy being part of a space like that

Also I'm only rude 2 ppl if they're rude 2 me

I believe in treat others how u want 2 b treated

Maybe if they were actually a good person who treated others kindly I wouldn't b such a shit face 2 them

Anyways that's it of my yap ses I'm gonna go back 2 my important reblogging

I had a conversation with my mom about commissions--she’s of the opinion that you shouldn’t have to wait super long to get what you paid for. I’m the opposite; I think artists should be able to take as long as they need to finish a commission, and I’m totally cool with waiting for months even for them to get back to me. Surprisingly enough I’m very patient when it comes to commissioning other people lol. Maybe I just think that way bc I’m an artist myself so I totally get the struggle. (And I also take time with my comms too.) My mom is not an artist so she doesn’t really grasp the amount of time and effort it takes, so she expects results immediately. Which like. I get that too? I dunno. What do you all think? Are you the kind of patient person who’s totally chill with an artist taking months to finish your commission? Or do you want it to be done within a reasonable amount of time, like 2-3 weeks?
