Aikea and Gelydh have their own site...

OMG, this is fabulous news! 

Yay for A_G and Gelydh! Hooray!

Well, I'm beginning to wonder if things have finally gotten to the point...where sites, especially conglomerates like TSR with multple creators, aren't making as much money as they used to.  So you're taking a pay cut, and people basically think you're rotten for charging, too.  There comes a point where most creators would probably rather get their respect back and go free, especially if they can't make a killing any more.  It just makes sense...why make yourself a paraiah in some parts of the community if it doesn't gain you much?

I mean, I think it's fantastic.  For both the pay angle and the simply breaking away from TSR angle--TSR is a disgusting site as it is, even if they were free artists, I'd be happy.  As long as their site remains free, too, I've definitely gained more respect.  Kudos to them.

This is great news!  We ought to throw a party for everyone who's left TSR.

Between this news and atwat's demise, today's turning out to be quite nice. *swigs and passes*

Gelydh (i'm pretty sure it's Gelydh anyway) has just popped up at GoS to tell us the correct pronunciation of her name.
What a night this is turning out to be.

[keirra]

Gotta ask...what is the correct pronunciation of her name?

[Steerpike]

It was her actual name, kierra. I still don't know how to pronounce Gelydh.

Also, Aikea has turned up too. This is becoming quite the party!

[Anyerfillag]

I'm still in awe - they're both at GoS...what next, here?!

[Hecubus]

So what does this mean for all their stuff in the Booty? Will we keep it incase Thoma$$ decides to wipe their entire profile(s), or will it be removed?

Their stuff will remain in the TSR section as long as Thomas still has them listed as FAs and has their items listed for pay. Once they're officially dismissed, we will archive the old stuff, and I'll be contacting them about future plans (whether they'll be releasing it all themselves or want it in the Graveyard or whathaveyou).

[Anyerfillag]

Thats what I thought, but seeing as they haven't moved their stuff at TSR over (and there doesn't appear to be any sign of them doing so) I wasn't too sure what the procedures were. Thanks for clearing it up Hec

[tIIsuggas]

They aint on the FA list anymore.  Or the retired artists for that matter.

Stuffit, this forum is on warp speed at the mo.  Hard to keep up.  God help me in the morning when I come for my fix, will prob need to wake up 2 hours earlier than usual.

[Hecubus]

Okay, that happened in like the last 10 minutes...while I was typing "but they're still listed"!! LOL

Wtf completely deleted? If Thomas wanted to hide the fact that these two left without shitty things going on, he should have put them on retired. Guess he gave up.

Nah, they're still there. Look on the new downloads queue on the front page. Still pay too, I might add.

[Anyerfillag]

I wouldn't be surprised if Thoma$$ kept all their stuff as pay just to piss them off...
