Refunding & possible adopt purge

Posted 2 years, 2 months ago by cilphy

Hey there everybody, gonna get straight to the point up here, but I'll go more in detail at the bottom if anybody is curious. But I want to refund my longstanding commissions I've owed for years as well as look through my adopts to see which ones I want to part with. Gonna try to dwindle it down to my most faves that I'm keeping.

If you're on this list feel free to message me if you know the price of your comms to get a refund. Otherwise I'll be checking prices and adding everything up myself to message everyone later.

And this is where I ramble. I've been rather stubborn with myself and putting off the idea of refunding everything, though it's been in the back of my mind for a long time as well. I wanted to think I could finish everything cause I didn't wanna disappoint people. But it's been a long time that I may as well not be finishing anything >< I used to be really good at drawing many comms but I'm getting older and my body is hurting more. (I drew two minis in one day and that made my wrists sore for two days) I had a breakdown a week ago where I had some bad self-destructive thoughts. After clearing my head I realized I should do what's best for my mental health and the other best thing I can do is just give everyone their money back.

The other thing is that I've just been... so focused on Vtuber commissions. I didn't think it'd blow up for me this much, I thought it'd be a nice big commission on the side while I focus on what I owe, but it turned out to be all I can do right now cause of the huge demand that came from the Vtuber boom. And I've realized how tough it is to be both the artist and the rigger. But thanks to this, I can be in a good place to do these refunds at all, so I wanted to take the chance now for a clean slate. I am afraid people will never come back and think of me as a failure but I have to accept that's how it be and this is a big world   No hard feelings of course either way, I appreciate everyone who gave me a chance and was so patient with me.

For the commissions I've taken recently, I'll still be doing those since it's a smaller list.  The likelihood of me opening regular art commissions may still be rare, but I'm hoping that with refunding I can finally open comms more often again. And even then I'll be sure to only open a few slots at a time. I do apologize for taking this long just to finally refund everyone, but once again I'm grateful for all your patience.

As for adopt purging, cause of how busy I've been I've had no time to think about OCs at all :'3 I think it's another thing I want to clear from my mind cause I feel bad I have so much characters now but can't even do much with my main characters. I'll be putting characters together, most likely uploading them then transferring so there's a trail. Might be a few days cause I gotta figure out character prices.
