Also, it's against the rules to bump your requests in this thread. People do see the requests, and it is the artists' right to ignore a request if they feel like it. No one is obligated to take requests and requesters are not promised results. Read first post of thread for all rules~

Can't believe you're lecturing me.

First, I requested it a week ago and haven't seen any replies in reference to my request.

Second, it wasn't a bump, more like a comment. Someone said there wasn't anyone on the request queue so I just made a comment in reply to that

Third, if it was poor quality, I would have liked to know instead of me waiting. ;/

Since it seems my pic is too poor, I guess I'll withdraw my request. /End

Lecturing you? She's stating the obvious. If you can't recognize the lack of quality in the picture, well...that's bad, can't you see how blurry it is? How there are no vibrant colors, no details? I mean, we are artists, not magicians, we can't make good looking sigs with such provided material. As Teshiro said, there's a lot of bad quality stuff to work with here lately, which is kinda sad. As everywhere else, there's a golden rule, stating that no matter how good something is, it is still only as good as its weakest point. In these cases, the weakest point would often be the render.

It's how it works here. If the requestor provides a sufficient render/picture and there's a free sig-maker lurking around, there's a chance of the request being fulfilled. But only a chance, not a rule. And don't you worry, we're not blind, we can see all the requests, we just don't want to do them. Before turning down a hint on why does this happen, like you did with Marina, try thinking about it. She tried to help you understand the situation and you accused her of lecturing you.

And the comment you were talking about? To me it was more of a "Damn, I wanted the sig so bad. Are you sure you don't wanna do it?" thing. What response could you really expect from that kind of behaviour?

Seriously, this just keeps happening all the time.

....I have never read sooo much in just one message XD..

[SkyLight]

Well it is true tbh ^^

at least once a week, and am a sucker for drama

[KiNA]

Drama is good.. as long as you not involves .. It gives those popcorn seller some smiles

[Larthak]

Well, well, I hope I didn't scare off potential customers for this thread.

Also, sorry for the OT, guys.

It also happens because lately I don't have so much time to monitor these threads, being an exams period.
Sometimes then I see a bump which already got a detailed reply with explanation (such as Marina's or Evil Rick's), and at that point I'd feel sorry to delete either the bump and the reply, so I leave them both.

Anyway, something I'm not particularly liking either is the off topicness. Not just referred to the recent posts, but in general. This is a request thread, isn't it? So in theory we should have these kind of posts:

1) The request
2) (optional) a maker saying: "I'm taking this request", to avoid 2 makers on the same sign.
3) The request fulfillment
4) The thank you post of the person who got his sign done.

All the rest shouldn't exist.
Instead I see a lot of off-topic comments, such as "that sign is wonderful", or "what series is that pic from", or "what programs did you use to make those" etc. , the regulars sure know what I mean.
Doing this though, clutters up the thread as a result. So - example - if the request is in post 42, it's fulfillment should come around post 46-47 in a clean thread (considering other requests that may come in the meanwhile). With the off-topicness instead the fulfillment could come even ten post later. Cumulation of such situations creates a bit of disorder, making it difficult for both makers and requesters who wants to orientate. This then leads to another reason of the bumpings: "my request got buried".

Less posts = easier to keep track of posts, for everyone's sake.

So please, can we try to shoot the off topic down? You can't say that in Fan Creations there isn't a liberty of speech, see each artist's own thread. But in these "technical" thread such as this one, the avatar thread, the tutorials' thread... things should be kept to their essence.
In my last exam I had 300 pages to study, but the exam was made by two questions on a normal A4 paper. Time for answering: no more than 30 minutes, and no more than 15 lines for answer. After the exam my teacher said: "in life, being concise and concrete is essential".

It's been a choice of me instead to let slide the sig request from series with their own subforum. I've realized, at least in the subforums I moderated/am moderating, that the sigmaking activity is quite low in there (only the huge franchises are an exception), hence I'm for allowing such requests in here.

[Kitsune]

This is mostly cause peopel doesn't use the report button, if users really think a post is completely off or going against the forum rules that would be better to use the report button just next to the rep one instead of starting critizism wich can only evolve into a large-scale argument

And no, I'm not lecturing anybody ;P
