>>6569207>I don't know you seem pretty scared of shitty tumblr confessions for oneLess scared and more annoyed, and I rather handle things in a way that means the least amount of trouble for anyone involved.
And honestly, it's not like I'm playing favourites for no reason. But people don't want to hear "I got warned by several artists that you are an absolute nightmare to deal with, which is why I rather work with people I know are good customers and will not give you a slot" and are willing to accept such an answer.
Especially among US customers there seems to be this idea of "I have money, how dare you say 'no'?!" even though it's totally up to me whom I want to give my time to. There are some things money cannot buy and just because you have money does not mean that I am your slave or something and have to accept everything you demand.
I decide whether I want to offer my skills, to whom I want to offer them and in what way. The fact you have money won't change that I am afraid.
But lots of people don't get that, they think that as soon as they are even willing to spend a measly dollar they can ask for anything and have a right to get everything. See it often enough with artists who don't sell their stuff at all and people losing their shit that they don't change their mind despite people being interested in buying from them.
