About that DD..

Journal Entry: Thu Jan 1, 2009, 10:23 AM


Firstly, for those that decided to rip shebid a new one because of the daily deviation I awarded her on her cute little frog.. shame on you.  You should all feel like giant asses for
A> starting the new year with such hostility and
B> for attacking a fellow deviant.

Two days ago, the ability to select DD's went the way of the dodo bird and when it was discovered that we had technically reached our 'limit' in the database, I had chris make a fix and had to test to ensure it worked correctly.  To test this out, I selected shebid's frog McCreepy the Frog by shebid because it was the first in my watch list.  I thought I had deleted it after confirming it worked but obviously, this morning I find out it didn't delete properly.  I have removed the DD because while shebid is an amazing artist worthy of a daily deviation, and McCreepy is a fun game.. it's not what I would normally consider DD material.

It was a test

and truthfully.. while I may have made a mistake in removing my test, those of you that went to town bitching on the deviation and attacking shebid officially failed as deviants.

Start 2009 with some love and if you're one of the aformentioned that failed to give anyone the benefit of the doubt.. perhaps you need to start issuing some apologies.


Here let me start, my dearest shebid I apologize for not ensuring that the test DD was removed and thus caused some anguish for you that you did not deserve.

The rest of you can get on it.

For everyone else, the ones that noted me asking if I made an error, thank you for not being jackasses and checking in with me with some degree of respect and concern.

Here's hoping 2009 continues with a little more compassion.

:love:

I love the story behind McCreepy... and I love the story behind Guatamala Day, too! :dummy:

I really hope that people don't think "that site" is unbiased and should be taken as Gospel truth. xD There are some laughs to be had, as long as it's not taken seriously.

I know this is late... but dang I love that frog~

DD? well sure, why not. ^^ the froggy fits the bill if you ask me. if people don't agree, then they don't have to look at it. as far as I know, the frog hasn't done anything wrong~

Something weird came to my mind... If an an artist receives a DD but they are not happy about it(for whatever reason, or just doesn't WANT to be on the frontpage with that particular piece), can they delete the submission and that wil result in DD disappearing as well? Or is that deviation undeletable, once it becomes featured as a DD? :paranoid: Just curious :B thanks for answering in advance :aww:

The artist always has control over their image. I'd much rather they ask to have the DD removed than delete the deviation but the choice is ultimately theirs.

Purpleblur re-awarded a DD to McCreepy the Frog, just to assert that mod powah is absolute and to stick it to the whiny bitches that actually wanted to see art. This makes it the only piece on dA that was deliberately featured for 48 hours straight, and thus the most important Daily Deviation to exist.
