Somebody from Etsy actually convoed her that her jewelry sucked..

She needs to get a thicker skin..but then a 2nd party tacks on about closing shop.

I just get a little tired of it..she opened in 2010..I've been there since 2008.

Gotta roll with the ups and downs of it all.

I hear ya..

boo hoo. let her leave. one more shop people dont have to sift through to get to mine. she needs an attitude change

sorry to be mean, and id NEVER say that to her face, but seriously.

Not mean, there just seems to be a pattern in the forums, boo hoo I'm leaving and then...

you get a gaggle of folks begging you to stay. Maybe I am PMSing..except I don't have the parts anymore!

well she just got herself a buttload of views didnt she..its a tactic.. a crappy tactic

if you really wanted to leave you would just up and close your shop without a word

true Haff

Looking for pity sales..and I agree with you Haff.

by posting about it all and 'threatening' it you are just attention seeking

now if you were on plurk you would come and bitch here and we would all hug you and make you feel better..but AF forums are not the place

Admin needs a BooHoo section..

I feel bad, b/c Etsy sucked my self esteem right out of me..it has that effect

KatsAllThat

LOL.. i think its called 'The Artisan Lounge'

Thanks Kat, I got over it, but I dislike E so much for the psychological damage that they allow

I have heard so many bad thins about E..glad I never went there.

I suppose each forum has it's own type of dysfunction.

True, but it's really bad. They rip people a new one, over the font in your banner

i stay out of E forums now. I tried to use them when i first joined, but they get awfully nasty

Or if you send and invoice you are killing trees, or if your policies are too strict..etc, it goes on and on

That's awful!

There are wonderful people there, and also some mean and hateful people. I think when things go wrong or are too slow, it brings out the

the worst in people

E forums are dangerous murky places. My team however is fantastic so I just stay out of the forums.

Then the Admin shuts down threads left and right and everyone is left hinting about stuff, it gets weird

good idea Robyn, I let myself get sucked in and I really shouldn't have

I always felt E forums needed to come with a warning label.

I agree!

Aww Chris your woodwork does not suck.
