First of all, thank you for watching me, as you can see that in my stats, I have reached 600 watchers. :heart: :hug: I really appreciate it, don't get me wrong :hug: Though there are problems...

But I guess, it is mainly thanked to dailygiveget, where I'm actually offering watch for watch. I'm ended up there due to my job, and then I was like: why not? why not I can get watchers for watching them? Well...

Because actaully like 20 people watching me out of 600, and this is kinda sad. =( These 20 poeple are the ones who I formerly contacted in some ways, like art trades and stuff, mostly, some of them are new watchers who care.

I must admit that I have been a little bit inactive for a while (and I think I will be in the future, because I'm at university, and studying is hard, especially when you choose to learn everything (almost) in ENGLISH, and guess what, it isn't my first language/mother tongue), but is that a good reason to abandon me? I don't think so...

I've noticed that some friends of mine are busy, just like me. I understand that. II added some of them as my facebook friends, or more, I know them in real life too. Some watchers of mine have left/moved/ been inactive too, I can understand that as well, because life is HARD. But my fairly new watchers...? Most of the people just come to my profile, watch me and throw me a message that they have come here from dailygiveget, and then COMPLETELY IGNORE ME. COMPLETELY. They disappear if I don't exist, but I DO.

What I would expect from watchers, that every normal human being would:
give me some favs (I always thank them, even if I'm slow)
give me comments (I LOVE comments, I love reading them, even if I'm slow with replying due to university sometimes)

But from 580 people, I get nothing. NOTHING BUT IGNORANCE.

I submit something, and I don't get a single fav sometimes, and not even a comment. It ALWAYS seems to happen to my OCs. I have seen that some people (like me) who can't draw ask their friends to draw down the character, and they get more favs, comments, and generally attention than me. No matter how much I put my heart and soul into the descriptions, nobody reads it. Nobody even looks at it...

If you are not going to fav my artwork, or comment on it, does this mean that you actually don't like my artwork right? Then WHY DO YOU WATCH ME?! Only because of the dailygiveget feature?! SERIOUSLY?!

When I decided to do a Pay it Forward and offered FREE STUFF from me, only TWO people signed it...That means people don't want my crafts...Nobody entered because I'm worhtless and ordinary, I guess (excluding the people whom I had an art trade before, of course :heart: I would never offend them :hug:)
Heck, into my friend's paying forward who has 73, yes, 73 watchers, way less than me, 8 people entered...

Long story short, if you watch me, please, don't ignore me.

Maybe I should do a giveaway, or contest, or something but...who the heck would participate...? =(

Aww you're not worthless, I have been really busy with school and didnt go into deviant art at all. I have like 100 watchers and its the same for me lol I recently made a journal about art trades and at least one person is interested, i was hoping to get one or 2 more haha, but i dont feel bad, im pretty sure we all get to the part where we see things that are not that well made and not big quality and think that ours looks better or something and wonder why they get more attention, ive been there haha still get the hopes i can start selling my crafts someday :)
I would definately enter your giveaway or whatever you're trying to make, ill be going back to school soon so idk if im gonna go on deviantart all the time, so if i miss it its because i didnt check lol
