Made a stupid mistake of getting in a NSA relationship with a friend because I didn't see the harm since I've been single for a while. Did not expect to actually start liking my friend as more. I'm beyond petrified to say anything for fear of making things awkward.

For fuck's sake, what's wrong with me? I get jealous *so* easily. *So* easily. It gets me upset just to see you bonding with someone else. I'm such a selfish bitch at times. How the hell am I supposed to accept it when you get a boyfriend? You want to meet someone so badly and all I want is you to myself. You're like my best friend now... I don't even know if you know it.

"Communication error" when I am about to deal the final blow in a battle...yeah right, the other person disconnected, not fooling anyone feigning confusion. Then promptly announcing that its late and your going to bed...I won that fight and you know it *Glare*

Oh, thanks. I really needed to get the utility bill taken out of my account three times. It's not like I wanted to buy food and being massively overdrafted is awesome. Not.

Why am I getting hate for asking for money in return for art? IE commissions. How is that rude or greedy? I think it's rude and greedy to ask for art FOR FREE like so many people think is a prefectly fine thing to do nowadays.
I'm only doing it becuase my family is in a bad money situation at the moment >.> but I guess that's a greedy thing to do too on the internet.

Where? On DA?

If it's on DA, I'll go report that It's stolen, and help you Cow.

None of your awesome art should ever be stolen.

Thanks you guys for the support but there is no need anymore. I emailed Redbubble.com the site he was selling it on and they have taken it down. They where nice and fast about it so that's good! Funny my cousin found his Facebook page and I was going to tell him what I think about him but he's made it so only people he knows can post I wonder why

thanks and yeah I think he is. I don't think the other 3 shirts he's selling are his but I can't do anything about that as I have no proof. :/

I spent a lot of time on a drawing and find out that the tail does not comply with the restrictions of the species...even though the information on the species does not (yet) state anything about what my piece didn't comply with
Both rabbits (and rabbit like species) as well as birds are capable of moving their tails, how was I to know that this feather tailed rabbit couldn't move its tail from being curved along the back...and what do you mean the tail is to big? on the breed sheet it says that the tails can range from bunny sized to peacock sized and mine isn't as big as a peacock T.T ...Now i need to come up with a new tail design that still looks good...shouldn't have picked such a difficult pose...

Bipolar disorder.
I've seen some people say that I must be very busy because I haven't been around. I haven't been busy. I've been trying to get out of bed.

I had a cousin who was Bipolar and his mom refused to believe it, it wasnt until he punched her in the face and broke her nose in a fit of uncontrollable and unprovoked rage did she do anything about it. I understand she hurt her face but I think she hurt him more by refusing to believe what everyone else saw/suspected for several years. I dont have it personally but trust me I know it can be tough.

Today was a really, really lousy day.
I know it's just "first world problems" but today has just really sucked.
I've been in this guild for a literal year or more. I helped form it when it was starting out to raid. I worked my butt off for months on my hunter in the first group and we got great progression. It certainly wasn't all me, but I helped, I pulled my weight, I did my share, and I worked really hard to improve.
We form a second team and they have a lot of trouble. They can't keep a tank. They have trouble keeping people. I talk to the guild leader and the officers and I offer to switch mains, work my butt off, and get geared. I get my druid from 85-90 in two days and by next raid day, I'm ready to go.
Since then I have never, EVER missed a day. I help out with Heroics. I help out with gearing. I help out the officers. I set up little side events to help get the guild doing stuff. Every weekend I run instances like crazy to get people their Heroic and Scenario Achievements.
I've been through three raid leaders, two raid groups, and had the second one basically reform four times.
And I stuck with it. Never didn't show. Never was rude. Always tried my hardest to be upbeat and positive.
The Guild Leader and several officers talk to me all the time for help and pep-talks and just...stuff....
I work really, really hard.
I got cut today.
Why? It wasn't my gear. It wasn't my performance.
The guild leader has a friend who wants to tank. I'm getting replaced by him. He has less gear, less experience, and is not very skilled at the class, which he just rolled to get to 90.... Even three of the four officers agreed they thought it was bullshit but they "aren't the guild leader so we can't do much".
But I'm cut and he gets to raid into 5.2 with the team I kept together (or at least helped) and worked really, really, really damn hard for....
So I left my guild. I couldn't stand being some side-liner when it wasn't even for a good reason. It wasn't a better tank replacing me. It wasn't a balance issue. It was....pure and simple favoritism.
I feel sick and like I want to cry.
I know it's stupid but...today has been a horrible day.

That sounds like the issue my mother had, she was the best healer in the guild, but she got cut merely cause she was the type of women who wouldn't put up with any of the guild leader's crud. The guild moved severs, but never told my mother. And none of the other guilds on my sever where looking for Healers.

It isn't stupid to feel bad. This game has made me feel like that more then once due to people just being asshats.
I went through a similuar situation with my last guild. I was there from day 1. Left my previous guild cause these people seemed fun and organised. Everything was good, we progressed, we had fun, I pulled my weight and made alot of what i thought was friends. Stuck with the team as we cycled through various people in the good and bad times.
We hit heroic content. We get stuck. The officers recruited a "friend" who has heroic raiding experience. He apparently is the guru to end all gurus. But I feel ok. I'm top dps, what problem could arise for me?
Mr heroic does a "sim" of all the dps (apart from himself) and makes a forum post....a very derogatory one aimed at me. Why don't I use this? Why haven't I done that? I'm not performing as well as I should. It gets nasty and very personal at one point but I won't repeat that. (The other two dps below me get off more lightly).
I felt sick. I made a comment on the thread to the tone of "there are people behind those pixels" and the response I got from the GM and officers I thought were friends was "its ok to give constructive critisim". Except there was nothing constructive in what this person said. So much so I got PM's from guildies asking if I was ok and the post they thought was bang out of line.
The officers buried their heads and backed mr heroic thinking i would forget it. I didn't.
I swapped raid teams to avoid him. He started bringing "alts" to that team. I told the GM he should apologise or I would not come to any further raids. She agreed and broached the subject in a 3 way PM.
An Apology never came. He acted in G chat like I should be all cool and mates with him still. I was not.
And so I left. I didn't do any long winded goodbye post. Just added to real id those I felt truely did care and dissapeared into the night. I fiound out later that mr guru couldn't save them from heroic spine and once progression stalled (as it had donepreviously in the past) he left. Karma? Who knows.
to leave was actually the best thing I could of done. I felt alot better being away from that and went back to my old casual guild with open arms

That toon remains there to this day. Sorry this is a long response but I wanted you to know that you are not alone in having been done over by people. Its more then ok to have a cry and be hurt cause god knows I did! But there is light after dark and now you can find a guild that truely does care and appreciate you.
Cas xx
Edit: I'll just add here I think the reason behind mr heroics comments aimed at me (id never said boo to him before then) was after I pulled out of the first team he added his Hunter to the guild. I had a feeling he just wanted to raid on that toon and being nasty was a good way to get rid of me.

It's about 5:30 in the morning. I should have gone to bed at least 2-3 hours ago. But no. I decided I had to do as much work on this drawing as possible. Oh Fire Emblem: Awakening.. WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO ME? XD Oi, if it's not Pokemon art I'm staying up all night working on, it's apparently Fire Emblem art now! XD As much as I love this game, I reaally should not have stayed up so late.
*Edit* On another note, why the HELL is the phone ringing at 5:35 AM?!
