OK. So for those of you who are just joining this is what has been happening and how it spiraled out of control. You be the judge of whats going on but I suggest you listen to both sides of the story before you make your decision.
It all began when I got a shop and wanted to gift some friends of mine while at the same time doing random drawings for the rest of tengaged. I posted in several places for people to not stalk my design. Mikey is in a skype group with me and knew that this was how I was planning on running my shop. He wasn't just a regular customer randomly finding an item in the shops, he blatantly disrespected me.
I got pissed at him for this and in turn he contacted all his friends to write blogs about me and neg all my shit. The main one was Dorkishbarbi who decided to threaten me with the OC because I was mad at Mikey for stealing the design. She posted threatening comments "we're gonna fuck you up" in one of her blogs.
Someone notified me about this blog, which is bannable, and several people reported it... and yet she's still here. Continuing on...
One of the designs I made for auctions the golden eyes was negged for several hundred points because a guy named Maffhew assumed that I was stealing his design and reposting it. So he commented and blogged etc about it... they gain more people to plus and neg shit.
Funny thing is... this was my design and the original image came from: http://www.webdesign.org/img_articles/7792/15.jpg before I even started editing it.
Now on to other news. Mattybb9 was supposed to be one of my gifters on my second design... what did he do? He told several people exactly what time i would be posting just to fuck with me because I evicted him in a rookies game. How petty is that?
So in summary, I made this shop to benefit me, my friends, and some random people on Tengaged. Mikey knew my plans and disrespected me by stealing an item from my shop. As you know the shops cost several thousand ts now so you can imagine how pissed i would be at this... then matty does the same thing. Then maffew falsely accuses me of stealing his design... which I didn't... then dorkish gets involved because of mikey... threatens me... and has many people neg everything I do.
So read the whole damn thing before you put your little negs for once and don't be a fucking sheep listening to OC bullshit.
You set yourself up for that when you said you didn't want anyone stealing from shops, but technically when you post a design, its up for grabs for anyone. I don't think anyone is scared of you or your friends joining games and evicting them for a month. I mean, who joins games where your fate is decided by votes anymore? Everyone just plays Castings now. And plus, it's your fault for bidding 3000 T$ on a shop. That's why people only bid 500 T$. SO yeah im screenshotting this comment so I know if you delete this or not.
Owning a shop is stressful enough, getting designs, gifting, all that, however when someone does take a design it really does suck, i know, in my 1st shop i lost 6 stock. However, with that being said, losing stock is just part of shops. I really hope the rest of your shop goes well, trust only those that u know 100% will not backstab you, and try and have fun. Gl truth, i hope the rest of ur stock goes to ppl you want it to.
I was on call with Mikey when this happened, he did NOT tell anyone to make blogs about you, or neg your blogs, so that's incorrect info.
it's funny.. you say theirs two sides to every story but you only post yours and then at the end, you say "don't listen to OC's bullshit" when the OC hasn't even said anything about you.. or done anything to you.
I was not involved, but in my opinion if you weren't so rude and said "IF YOU STALK MY SHOP I WILL PERSONALLY HUNT YOU DOWN STALK ALL YOUR GAMES AND RUIN THEM".. people wouldn't have done that. give respect, gain respect. simple as that.
I am sorry you are not being allowed to run your shop the way you want to. These shops seem like they are stressful to me and that is one reason I would hesitate trying to have one. (that and I don't design stuff)
