starfinder update: resolved? maybe? plz? x.x

[mattdawolf.livejournal.com]

*double edit* I have various other options at my disposal. Posting on wet_canvas or wet ink, or whatever it was where she posts her RL stuff is one, and a few others. I'm not going to stop 'hounding' her either til she pays me.

*edit* Users don't tag anything on A_B. Mods do. S'why I put a ? in front of resolved. Also, I got a note from her an hour or so ago:

Cyber,

I wanted to keep you in the loop. Unfortunately, the commissioner who's piece I finished a few days ago (it's the 'Sheppie Girl' upload on FA) has flaked and not paid for the work. :( I was hoping to use the funds from that piece to refund you, but now it's been delayed since there are no funds. I will attempt to recover funds somehow, probably with a new commission, to give you a full refund this week. If that doesn't work, I will at least try to give you a partial refund (as much as I can muster after rent/bills are taken care of on the 1st) and then take it from there. :) Please let me know if this is okay. I'm doing the best I can here to make you happy/rectify things.

- K

Got this note just now.

Cyber,

It's mentioned in an A_B post somewhere. I will (hopefully) be able to just refund you by the end of the weekend and get you off my back. Right now I am waiting for a considerably large payment on a commission that I finished/streamed, but have not heard back from the buyer in the past 2 days. As soon as I hear from them and get paid, I can refund you. Now please, stop commenting on everything I post, in my streams, etc and just in general hounding me. I am doing the best I can here, and I just want peace and quiet.

I'm sorry that things couldn't have worked out differently.

Yay +$80 soon!

I'll believe it when I see confirmation.

If this was done under a business name on doing a commission with an artist, I would've released the hounds(aka collectors).

You,

Get off my back,
Someone else's fault,
Promise, promise, Promise,

Give me more money, or leave me alone.

[kayla-la.livejournal.com]

Heh, I like her whiny PLEASE STOP HARASSING ME I ONLY HAVE YOUR HARD-EARNED MONEY AND HAVE GIVEN YOU NO PRODUCT BUT I'M THE REAL VICTIM HERE!!

If you don't want people 'hounding' you, STOP SCAMMING PEOPLE, LADY.

Wahhh, life is hard.

[silverfalln.livejournal.com]

I so need a "This." icon. That's pretty much what I heard in my head while reading.

[dodger-greywing.livejournal.com]

Soooo, she'll pay you back when she gets payment from someone else who has not contacted her for at least 2 days? And somehow you're still the bad guy?

She hasn't changed a bit.

[ashleyvsdestiny.livejournal.com]

No, she's totally changed, she started taking commissions from people who won't pay in advance. :V

[sunhawk.livejournal.com]

I wouldn't count it resolved until the money is in your hands, and not a moment before.

That is one hell of an nasty message to send out, god forbid people be upset after paying good money and getting nothing!

[uozlulu.livejournal.com]

I was about to say this. It's not resolved until the money is refunded.

[raai.livejournal.com]

Oh dear.

[genkigami.livejournal.com]

Because she's totally the victim. I mean seriously, Mattdawolf, do you understand that you're a terrible person for wanting what you paid for? For shame! /sarcasm

She hasn't changed. She will never change. She's a cold-hearted scammer.

[taasla.livejournal.com]

Goodness she has such a nasty attitude. GET OFF OF MY BACK, HOW DARE YOU WANT WHAT YOU PAID FOR!

[ducttapeninja.livejournal.com]

If she really wanted some peace and bloody quiet, she wouldn't have scammed people and wouldn't be continuing to scam people.

Ugh, "resolved" is not what I would call this.

[grygon.livejournal.com]

not resolved yet.

what a 'tude.

[wickedtoff.livejournal.com]

The whole situation is unprofessional yes (most of us have had atleast one learning experience like that, it's no excuse), but I'm really stunned by the response. It's just extremely rude! When you owe someone else money the last thing you should be is rude to said person; YOU'RE the one at fault! :/

[dazen-cobalt.livejournal.com]

get off her back? what the hell? this is YOUR hard earned money and she's still acting like the victim? pffft. this ain't resolved until you have money in your account. =/

[cesarin.livejournal.com]

also just wondering, I heard some rumors that again witchie was removed from FA adminship.. was again dragoneer blocking her(witchie's) attemps to get Starfinder banned for good ?

still the message reeks of what she has done for years..
I would not.. again.. consider this problem resolved UNTIL you get the full refund.

[munemunenyo.livejournal.com]

I've heard that in the rumor mill that is Lulz as well. I sincerely hope that wasn't the case because I'm tired of popular artists with a bitchy attitude getting special treatment.

[undertow26.livejournal.com]

Wow, her attitude is just...bleh. How incredibly rude. I can't believe she'd treat you this way, you paid her and she refused to refund or show the art and yet she's the victim in all of this?? I can't even comprehend that logic. I really hope you get that refund so you could put this all behind you.

[theblackdragon.livejournal.com]

i wouldn't go tagging it 'resolved' until the money is back in the OP's account...

that said, she's got a looooooooooong way to go to fix all the wrongs she's made if she wants 'peace and quiet' ever again, though, lol. here's hoping she makes good on what she's promised for you, OP :3

[theredwolf.livejournal.com]

This is one of the few times I really think name calling is appropriate, because shes being completely unprofessional, and honestly needs an adult to spank her.

You have more patients then I do, Mattdawolf. I wouldn't tag this till you have money in hand, however.

[puritikoneko.livejournal.com]

At this rate, I wonder how long it'll be before anything actually gets done about her. Since Witchie's no longer an admin and seems to be the only admin that gives a damn about what she's doing. -_-;

[dakotabailey.livejournal.com]

If it's the commission she's talking about that I think she's talking about, it sounds like she gave up on that commissioner contacting her and is trying to sell the piece she did.

I may have the journal capped and saved. She deleted it after hiding comments from people asking about work she owed them.

[senshi-of-doom.livejournal.com]

It's been two days and they haven't paid? Obviously they don't want it anymore, so it's okay to sell it.

Jesus, the karma train is going to hit her so hard one day. :/

[anuvia.livejournal.com]

Wow, I can't get over that note. The utter rudeness and unprofessional attitude are pretty bad but what I think bothers me the most is that she states she's only refunding you to get you off her back rather than because...ya know, IT'S THE RIGHT THING TO DO.
How dare she try to guilt trip you for wanting a refund for the $80 commission you never got. I suppose to her, that's chump change when you total the amount of money she takes in and never delivers on, but damn..that attitude is just deplorable.

I really hope she makes good on her half assed attempt at a promise, but I wouldn't count on it.

[ryunwoofie.livejournal.com]

Not surprised by her response...

It's weird how the OP keeps marking stuff 'resolved' when he ain't got his money. You got too much faith in these scamers. :C

I'll believes it when I sees it.

I don't know why he didn't update again to show that he'd been paid, but so you know this is ONE bad business deal- which was actually a trade. Please don't judge me as a scammer for that :/

[tea-lover84.livejournal.com]

Glad to see you're getting money back.

But her rudeness...She calls you rude for demanding what is yours.

'Peace and quiet.' I don't think so Tim...

[filthy-animal.livejournal.com]

I wouldn't mark this as resolved at all...

[mekania.livejournal.com]

I'm really surprised at the "resolved" tag. I remember Kayla used to tell OPs to let the mods know when money/product is delivered and THEN the mods would mark it as resolved. Maybe I'm misremembering or things have changed?

[kayla-la.livejournal.com]

I'll bring it up in the mod comm if we should firmly go one way or the other.

[stokerbramwell.livejournal.com]

As everyone else has said, this is nowhere NEAR resolved, man. Don't give up until you have the money in your hands and not a moment sooner.

[kinas.livejournal.com]

Ugh, don't resolve this until the money is in your hands. Her work ethics are horrendous.

[nanook123.livejournal.com]

You should tell her that for every day you don't have your money back that you WILL post all over the internet about her streams and the things she says in them. That's ridiculous the attitude she has.

[marus-puppy.livejournal.com]

I agree with this wholeheartedly! If you don't put pressure on her, she'll just drop it. Keep messaging her, emailing her, putting up shouts on her wall, her stream, whatever it takes to get your money back.
