The good news is that I've finally reached 150 followers here on Newgrounds!

That's honestly not very much, especially considering I've been here nearly 5 years now, but... it's still a milestone for ME. Also, I reached this goal while being actively shadowbanned by the people who run the art portal (them hiding my artworks from people outside of my own followers because I used to not draw my own backgrounds or some shit), ever since I had around 80 followers or so I think, so that makes me reaching this number despite all those artificial hurdles a bit more of an achievement too, I think.

I've been so busy this past year, that I still haven't managed to deliver on the reward for 100 followers, which was to be me offering free request doodles on a forum topic for a couple of weeks. To make up for this, when I finally DO get the chance to open that topic, I'll be opening the forum up for free doodle requests for AN ENTIRE MONTH! (Followers only, of course!)

The bad news is... well, just see for yourself: https://www.newgrounds.com/dump/item/55e438d6f233e79d72af50bd39e08e73

Yeah... as if I wasn't censored enough on Newgrounds already. There's certainly little reason for me to use this website as a place to enjoy art anymore (the fact that all the file downloads are in the awful WebP format already made it a pretty crappy site to archive art from). They can beg me all they want, but there's no way I'll EVER pay for membership here whilst I remain unscoutable through no fault of my own.

(It doesn't help that, a couple of months back, one of the art portal moderators pretended to feel sympathy for me about my descouting and suggested through a DM that they'd work with me to resolve my problem. Well, I sent them a very long and undeservedly polite message back, explaining my whole situation and the ways in which they could help me... and, of course they just ignored it entirely. They were just playing with my emotions for a laugh, they love toying with artists like me whom they've chosen to hate.)
