I'm just going to copy and paste a bit from my post in the shadow forums because I'm just tired of typing right now after all of this.

And I'm pretty confused.

I run a free to use familiar siggy art thread. You can find it by clicking on my slime in my siggy. (http://www1.flightrising.com/forums/adopt/1733153 since it's not here on petopia)
Pretty basic stuff.
Copy the code and paste it where you want it. No charge. No fuss.
To unlock new familiars, there are set goals that need to be reached. That will unlock a new set of familiars for everyone to use for free.
No one is required to give me anything.
Many people don't give anything and that is fine. I don't care. Everything is still free.

Today I got a letter telling me "but it's sort of unfair to charge for FREE signatures. :/ Just advice: you can ask for tips but please, it's somewhat unfair to charge for free art. :)"

...Am I really being unfair? Like legit. Am I? I don't want to be unfair and that was never my intention. Is it unfair to have FREE USE art but also have it on a donate to unlock?


I dont understand why this person even messaged me. Its stupid. It so stupid that I felt the need to plop their message into Drama Rising for like my first ever post there lol. I hate people. Why the hell are they complaining? I dont think I'm doing anything wrong? Maybe I should just pull my 'shop' and delete all the images off of imgur so no one can have any of them. Then they couldnt complain about being unfair any more.
This is why we cant have nice things.

Bowno, your system is not unfair at all. It's actually VERY generous. There will ALWAYS be people who create problems and whine and think things should just be handed to them. Find strength and grace in how you handle them.

It's been a further week since I heard from the person asking for one of my dragons, saying it was their dream dragon. I was already almost tempted to exalt it since they broke their side of the deal by selling the pair I'd asked for a hatchling from. I set up a crossroads for him just now and if they don't pick him up for the amount I asked for (20k/25g) by the time the new colours come out, he's gone.

I'm with you there. I'd love one or two but they all seem to start at absurdly high rates.

I doubt it will get better, More players, more demand for gems. If people buy them the price will continue to crawl up. Maybe I'm just feeling negative, though.

Keep your shop going and don't let one hater bring you down. :) What this person fails to realize is that you don't have to offer those sigs at all, let alone offer them for free. Technically you're not charging, you're operating on a donation based system. The more donations you receive, the more free art rewards become accessible.

It's really a good system and I think you should stick with it. :) There's a lot of websites that operate in this fashion. You're doing nothing wrong. Try not to let it bother you. :hug: :hug:

2 days later and still no action from the person claiming I have their dream dragon. No PMs, no messages on the trade... I sent them one last message telling them to make up their mind. If I don't hear anything by the time I go to bed tonight he's getting exalted. This has gone on far too long. They have plenty of space and have been on recently so there's been no reason not to say something.

Most people know me for my patience :P Mostly I held onto him this long because they claimed him to be their dream dragon. Which boggled me anyway since it was a fairly common combo with the other zephyr dancer pairs out there.

Follow up from yesterday. I left a message on their clan profile saying that if they didn't reply in any way by the time I logged in the next day I was going to exalt the boy. Log in today to see no notifications but the site was in maintenance cos they broke the hoard and vault so I gave them the benefit of the doubt, assuming they simply hadn't been able to access it yet. 10 minutes later it's back up, still nothing. Check their clan profile... Turns out they've been deleting my messages. Just... wow. The boy is now with Windsinger.

Woke up to 50+ pings today. My god.....

And I know they were going to disable dragon search, but have I mentioned how completely inconvenient that is when you're only looking for certain colors hatched in these MASSIVE amounts of hatchings? What a pain. -.-

Hatched a XXY metal/metal/swamp gen one, sold it for 200k. I know doubles are even rarer now but figured it was a good enough price considering the shitty tert.

Sold, and now the buyer is trying to resell for 3kg. Kind of annoyed but whatever. Good luck with that bud.
