"I'm sorry for not doing art/writing requests-" *grabs your shoulders* so you agree? That they're requests? And someone is requesting you to do something and you have the power to say no or leave it around in ur askbox for who knows how long until you simply feel like it?

I'm sorry for rambling out of no where I've just seen this happen very often but especially on tumblr. I feel like bc we have formal askboxes and dedicated art/imagines blogs that the word "request" has lost its meaning. Request doesnt mean "this person will send me an ask and I Must do it" a request is just that. A request. "Is it possible for you to draw this or write that for me" the answer can be no. The answer can be yeah maybe if I feel like it in the far future. You don't have to apologize for not doing "requests".

Its like ur at a dining table with many ppl and someone asks u to pass the salt. You can do it, or you don't because you don't feel like it. Even if u don't do it, they can ask someone else at the table to grab it. What if ur arm was sore or someone else was in the way of you grabbing the salt. Either ways theres no consequences if u don't grab the salt. The worst thing that could happen is that u dont grab the salt and the person who asked gets upset, but who actually gets upset over that? If ur angry I didn't pass u the salt then idk why ur here u petty loser (meaning if u dont do a request and someone gets butthurt it's not on you, it's on them for assuming that their REQUEST is something that is Obligatory)

Personally whenever I open art requests I always make sure to say that I don't guarantee that I'll get to all of ur requests or if ill get to any at all. Maybe ill feel like drawing requests but the moment I get them I don't feel like it anymore. What r u gonna do abt it ?? Get inside my brain and make me do it ?? Lmao

Plus I usually also word it as "suggestions". Instead of requesting that I draw something, you are suggesting that I do it. I can take ur suggestion or I can not. Does it majorly effect my life or yours? Absolutely not. If u walk up to someone in the street and tell them "hey I think u should dye ur hair purple" if they do it, good for u guys! If they dont, no one loses a thing.

This is just my 2 cents on the matter bc I've seen it happening often, esp to younger creators who feel like they have to please their audience to be relevant or sumn idk I promise u just do what u want and make things for urself and everything will be ok
