About this Bitchy Blog

EtsyBitch is a communal blog of likeminded Etsians who are tired of the demeaning treatment, abuse, and general mismanagement of the Etsy.com site. We want Etsy to improve so we bitch to call attention to the unfairness and general stupidity of its admin and the unprofessional way they treat their sellers.

We're bitching because we care, dammit. That's right. It's snark for a cause. Crabbing for progress. Whining to make the handcrafted world a better place.

We don't hate Etsy. Unless you're DanielleXO, in which case you can go to hell. Thank you.

(If you want more info read our first post or maybe our Manifesto)

EtsBitch is NOT related to or operated by Etsy.com in anyway. In fact we're reasonably sure they hate our stinking guts. If you couldn't tell that we weren't related earlier, you are an idiot.
