Yeah, I think as any online "personality" you need to be really careful with what you say and do not say to others. I've seen so many good artists get buried, turned into lolcows, or run off the internet because they just couldn't stop responding to naysayers, haters, critics, whatever word you want to use, people are pretty petty and if they can shove their foot up your ass they'll do it. Mind you very few of these people were deserving of being attacked they just revealed that they were human and able to be hurt.

The "best" artists are the ones that do not respond to any negativity, I believe. Someone QRTs them to say that they're a pedo with shitty art who needs to r0pe or such and they simply block or they had the word pedo and other canned Shitter phrases filtered to start with.

I somewhat agree but I also disagree because even he responds. And, again: you should never do that. Responding gets you made fun of even more.

Like yes it's human to hit back or try to argue with people that come at you. It's understandable and IRL, at work or in regular social settings, you should absolutely self-defend and advocate. But the internet is different. Nit-picky or purposely inflammatory comments can easily be called "criticism", and if you disagree with "criticism" then you're obviously just a big baby who needs to be worshiped or coddled and is incapable of seeing his own faults.

Contradicting myself but if I'm being Really Honest the best absolute path is to not even block, simply ignore it. If you block they'll get a sense of satisfaction, worst case scenario they start bragging that they got under your skin because you realized they were retarded and removed them from your space.
>>
>>7916178
Is getting blocked actually satisfying for trolls? It takes like half a second to block someone.

>>7915940
How hard is it to not reply to a schizo fag?

Is OP really banned? I feel like that part isn't true. Can someone confirm?

>>7916184
Yes, it's satisfying. Logically speaking it's as you said, it takes no time to block someone, but from the view of a troll it means that they saw your comment and were so offended by it that they just had to try and punish you in some way.

>>7916120

>>
>>7916194
There's nothing you can do about how they view it though, from the side of the blocker, it's just house cleaning. Who cares about what the troll thinks? They can go ahead and make a new account and get blocked again. It's not a big deal and really does not take much mental energy, I think you're affording the troll a lot of power that they don't actually have.
>>
>>7916198
This, like, who cares exactly? They will brag about it then what? Make another one? Just block it again.
Do not feed the trolls, non interacting is the best path of acting.

undoing bans requires manual oversight, tech companies are tremendously understaffed for moderation almost always, if they can help it they'll ignore you unless your banning causes enough waves to hurt their public perception OR you threaten legal action, otherwise a single wrongful strike might as well be a permaban, time to make a new acc

>>
>>7922103
art is not practical so it makes people respect it less

you tend to notice this more in latin america. Those fuckers are super entitled and treat art like shit to the point they think not getting any free art is a human's right violation.

Send His Discord Tag to a gay Thread saying "Add me , this is my Tag :)" follow it so you know if he changes it , and do it when you are bored (for 2 years minimum). And keep doing it none stop. But also never respond to his Mails again.

Extra suggestion. If you find his Steam account if he is retarded enough to have it in a bio in whatever Social. Hire a small BotFarm and have his main one mass reported for scamming. Do it more as a hobby so you aren't obsessed.

Because a lot of relatively successful online artists are themselves from Latin America, and due to their generally shit economies and access to firstworlder wallets, said LA artists are able to make a decent living just by drawing double digit USD commissions. The result is that other LAs resent their success, and develop a hatred for artists. This is why thirdies in general seethe so much about muh coomission artists and gloat about AI, because they view it as knocking those rich, fatcat online artists down a peg. This feels particularly odd to a firstworlder, though, because 98% of online commission artists are at best earning what would be a minimum wage in a firstworld country, minus any sort of stability or benefits.

No one needs any art at all. You go on rule34 and find porn to last you a lifetime. Why does anyone need a specific artist to draw something specific? People repeat it's to see the image they want to see, but after you've seen your favorite anime girl taking it up the ass once, why do you need more? The hidden reality is they want the validation. Someone drawing the art is more real than an algorithm doing it. Because subconsciously people subconsciously look for connection.

You can test it. Make a painting and go sell prints at a convention vs putting them on a website. I guarantee you will find more buyers at a convention per physical viewer that sees your art. People prefer to buy a piece of connection, a memory of being somewhere, a proof they existed and did something that meant something to them. It sounds artsy, but it's just human psychology. An algorithm kills connection. If something it makes people crave it even more. Getting a "commission" is selling someone connection. Not with you, but with the fact an artwork has been made for them specifically. That someone heard them and validated their wishes through the art. That's what you really sell. In fact the artist's personality isn't even needed. What's needed is which part of it emerges through the art to validate the buyer.

Despite passive-agressive-unemployed-european-guy being in the wrong here, I think a gentler answer could have avoided this situation.
The request apparently meant a lot to him. Again, I'm not trying to justify his actions, but I can see how getting so easily dismissed after uh... "turning to OP with his dream" could get to his nerves.
Like.
"Hi. Unfortunately I can't afford to work for free, but I'll be happy to draw what you want once you're able to support my craft" or iunno some similar shit.
I know that's easy for me to say not knowing how many similar requests OP gets. Anyway.

And yet social media sites are granted special immunity from liability by the government because they are supposedly a "public square" as opposed to publishers of user-created content. The government could, if it wanted to, simply threaten to withdraw this immunity unless the social media sites allow free speech to the full extent provided by the First Amendment. This won't happen, because the government likes censorship and (under the Biden Administration most recently) actually pressured social media sites to censor and ban users for expressing skepticism/opposition to covid measures, etc. So the government, knowing most of the discourse is happening on social media, actually sees this as an opportunity to get around the First Amendment, although the courts have ruled it unconstitutional for the government to lean on tech companies to censor users.
