Furry Fandom and Drama General

Invoices don't do anything a regular payment doesn't already do. There's this gigantic misconception in the art communities that invoices protect the artist/buyer/etc when it's just an additional step. You can dispute a regular payment just as easily as you can dispute an invoice, you can initiate chargebacks on either one, etc and so on.

The only thing you need to do is avoid ever sending payment as Friends/Family. That automatically removes any and all protections from you, as a buyer.

I thought invoices were meant to help the seller keep track of their orders.

That is essentially all they're good for. I don't know where the myth of "added protection" comes from but it's not true whatsoever.

I never insisted it was extra protection, to me - it just shows more professionalism and seriousness. If someone is dealing in invoices, it means they are planning their online art business correctly. They are more likely to not try to pull a fast one.

Artists in Furry are very predatory. Always insist on an invoice, take proof of everything.

Blew my fucking mind the first time I inquired about a commission through a personal website, a form, and ultimately was told not to pay til I got a sketch.
It should be a wild adventure to start your own art business, especially as a teen, but instead, they insist on keeping it childish and "behind the shed".

“my only money source” use square like everyone else who has a brain.
still if she was actively telling people to send the fees or someone was stupid enough to put NSFW in the notes, that’d cause paypal to ban her.

Or maybe not put all your eggs in one basket? I mean making generic anthro art on it's own seems to be a gamble at best, let alone only using PayPal a service legendary for fucking people.

That's usually how I work - Sketch first, just something rough and fast to get the idea down and see if they like it enough to want to commit and continue with the order. Nothing super serious or time consuming.
Of course that sometimes opens the door for customers just taking the sketch and stopping there, but it's not like you lose much. I'd rather lose a loose sketch than $50.

yeah, plus you can hold onto the unapproved lose sketches for later, either as options for the next client, or for something else

How is it Drumpf's fault he's a degenerate, diseased furfag? Dragons are the worst furs.

Mmm, aren't they though? It takes one hell of a narcissist to think they are similar to an ancient, all powerful dragon when the reality is they are just tripping for power and sniffing their own flatus. Actually, sorry--I take that back. Zootopia fans are the absolute worst.

In my experience, I like to recycle incomplete example sketches as either YCHs or I change/recolor the commissioner's OC out as a generic dog or some shit and submit the art as something similar for advertising purposes. This allows you to turn a 'loss' into a gain, even if it's just getting your art out there so furs know you exist. Plus furry standards for artwork are so low, most don't notice or care that their YCH was an incomplete sketch as long as you draw their nasty genital references correctly.

She could become a hooker to pay her way the money's good and drunks think she's a hottie.
Here's a classic case of "beer goggles".

Ketu really went from "my parents are paying for my college" to "I'm homeless and can't finish my college", huh?




Not seen anything about this being transphobia related though, so it really makes you wonder.

The troon grift wouldn't be complete without begging for money because of your own mistakes. $5 on him moving into a furry troon sharehouse and becoming a "journalist."

Are these motherfuckers actually attempting to claim that burned furs and Nazi furs are somehow the same thing? Because burned furs included black women and bisexuals and other relatively normie furfags. The Burned Furs did absolutely nothing wrong.

People just got used to the fact that the furries are the most fucked people ever existed online, no matter which group one or another furfag belongs to. Yeah, so much, it became almost impossible to imagine there was a sincerely lesser evil inside the furfag community like The Burned Furs, unfortunately.

You know, I’ve been a heavy drinker my entire adult life, and I’ve tried to fuck some very questionable people in my time.
Hell, I even tried to make out with a couple dudes (no homo) and I don’t think there’s any way I could get enough alcohol in me to think that was attractive enough for even a BJ.
I wouldn’t even that troon eat my ass, and that’s saying something.
