Hello Etsy!

We appear to have been found.

For the uninitiated: We operate on etsy terms.

If you love us, we love you.

If you hate us we will go out of our way to make your life hell... or we'll ignore you. Depending on what we feel like at the time. Or if we're drunk, or have cookies. Whatever. We're bitches we don't have to have a reason.

Welcome, everyone, like it or not.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA...

and the thread was locked. MaryMary to the rescue!

Sorry peeps, we're here whether you like it or not. *pbbt*

Donna said...

Ahaha, I just sent you an email about this, but figured you were probably on the scene. Pretty much supports your position, doesn't it? Not the sort of subject they encourage promoting in the forums?

Paw and Claw Designs said...

you wanted to be "found", correct?

this blog is great, thanks so much for the dose of laughter & snark, i needed it.

Oh dear lord. I consider myself to be pretty reasonable, but Etsy treating us like 5 year olds getting a bit ridiculous. They seriously need to get over themselves.

If someone were shitting in my living room, I'd ask them to leave.

Even if they were at a Tupperware party and were giving me money.

But I guess if it gives you more to bitch about, then it worked. Yay you.

Uh... we aren't shitting in thier living room. We went and got our own site to bitch on. We're shitting in OUR living room.

You're shitting in OUR living room. Get out.

Dear 2:16 anon cheerleader...

Hey, they've opened themselves up to it by making the mistakes they have.

But I bet you're one of the ones complaining that we're anonymous.. That's right, drink the kool aid and shut the fuck up, right?

Nothing was ever changed by sticking your head in the sand.

The Sneaky One said...

Yep, we took it off site. Can't help it if someone found us and took the link to the forums.

Keala Legacy said...

Ah hahahahahahaaaa!!!

That was pretty freakin awesome that yove been found.

But I dont drink Kool Aid... I prefer Tang! Just FYI.

=)

Check your stats. I bet you'll find that Etsy IPs are hitting you hard and fast. They don't care enough (or some of the staff doesn't know how?) to anonymize themselves, and you can see that they get pretty obsessive.

Aja said...

This is just absolutely ridiculous.

RecoveryBabe said...

hahaha I bet the '9' people who love Etsy are the silly Admins.

kcroteau said...

Rbabe - will you have lesbian love children with me? ;)

RecoveryBabe said...

yes darling, I will.

But I think we'll have to move to cali.

The Sneaky One said...

Dearest sag, Im sure you'll find that Etsy's insiders are the most ridiculous ones of all. With their double speak, narcissism and such.. Oh, and their klassy way of asking for gifts from strangers..

Oh, and maybe, just maybe we will applaud those Admins who have done well.. Or are you too mad at us to see where we've done that so far? Enmeshment is such a bad thing.

Aja said...

Lol. I'm not mad. Just unimpressed with the show is all.

The Sneaky One said...

Then please feel free to take your happy little enmeshed ass back to Etsy :D

Aja said...

Lol. Like I said. Ridiculous.

Best of luck in all of your endeavors.

*humps thesneakyones leg*

Well, I can see how you might feel compelled to leave snarky remarks to the authors of this website being that this blog is required reading and you're not allowed to just leave if you disagree.

The Sneaky One said...

*shackles cgc up* Read damn you!!!!

Anonymous said...

I'm touching myself as I type because I love this blog so much ... you go!

The Disgruntled One said...

We encourage self-pleasuring, silver-gwyn :)

The Cranky One said...

Mmmm.... what are you wearing?

The Righteous One said...

We know that some will come here and be astounded that anyone would have problems with Etsy.

But there are some who remember that they have rights as customers to get what they pay for.

We're those people. We are Etsy's customers and, just as if a phone company screwed us over by not having the phone lines service long distance or only work 9 hours out of the day, we're complaining and hoping they'll change. But unlike a phone company where we can just switch providers, the handmade movement will suffer greatly if Etsy fails. We all own a piece of that dream - and we're fighting to make it better.

ya know...I shoulda just made a new post lol
