You are all great

I was worrying the same way lol sorry DAs been unpleasant for ya, Kip. Pretty sure everyone on that site adores you either way though even if some aren't the brightest or kindest.

Hoseph Smith

DA is one of my favorite websites, TBH. The fact that, at one point, you responded to every comment is what brought be into this community more I'd say.

Streamtiem

Aw man, why are comments on DA so unpleasant? I hope I've not added to that.

Streamtiem

I hope I will meet your standards for a christian lesbian manga

Kipteitei

We love your work Kip and we'll always be here to support you ^-^

Traegerthorn

We love you too man, thanks for the great fats, bumping up my donation to 10 dollars a month

Dilly

I know but it's very easy to forget it, but thankfully the good people often remind me on situations like this. Thank you.

Kipteitei

Thank you, it's good to get some honest and intelligent opinions now and then. DA is kind of something I have to deal with it whether I like it or not.

Kipteitei

Glad you still likin it, thank yous~

Kipteitei

Not reading them at all would not be fair for the minority who actually leave entertaining ones

Kipteitei

Thank you very much, it is always good to hear

Kipteitei

Thanks I try not to!

Kipteitei

Well I'm makin art so :d

Kipteitei

Tumblr is horrendous for watching anyone, and not like the community is that much better. There are a lot of alternative art-sites but they tend to die down pretty quickly.

Kipteitei

It's not even what as much as how they complain, typically in a demanding tone

Kipteitei

Very happy to hear that ~

Kipteitei

DA is great for following artists and the gallery is perfect for showcasing art unlike tumblr or twitter, but if you involve in the community things go sour quick.

Kipteitei

Thanks I appreciate that~4

Kipteitei

Finding smiles here is what keeps me goin really

Kipteitei

I can deal with the cringe but if it's someone demanding shit in a cringy entitled way I tend to get platinum mad

Kipteitei

Yeah, closing it would make it difficult to get new readers too so I really don't have that option.

Kipteitei

I feel bad since all of my chub career basically started on DA, but it's just been getting progressively worse.

Kipteitei

DA in itself isn't bad, it just seems to attract the worst kind of people.

Kipteitei

Most people over on dA are just overly critical with how often Kip updates DwS or just tend to rush them like "where's the next page coming out already?"

DeviantArt is the platform that I discovered you and the FA community. It's played a major role developing my identity and allowing me to be comfortable with who I am. Yeah, the internet sucks, and it would be nice if something can be done about it. Just remember that for every audible stupid asshole, there's many more silently silently appreciating the stuff you create. Cheers.

We here on Patreon may be bias, but DA is truly bad. I really don't even bother with comment sections in general save for some more of the intellectual community forums I visit. Then again, they don't know that most of my Patreon pledges are for fetish art, just that I'm a huge supporter of the "arts". *raises box wine glass* Either way, know that over 500 of us think you are awesome. We appreciate your hard work and dedication to your craft, and only want to see you push yourself beyond the level of skill that your at. That's at least why I donate, because I love seeing just how much you love doing what you do.

Nate Smith

I've seen some of the comments too Kip, people really make me sick. I've been a fan of your work since before DWS started and it's always been great. Screw those people! Everyone on here loves your work and anyone that thinks otherwise doesn't deserve to see it.

Do what every other popular DA or Youtube personality does with the comments... Ignore them

Clark Nova

I'm the kind of person who doesn't ever post anywhere, but I'll post here to say that your art is great and I appreciate all of the work you do for us and everyone else who enjoys it. Keep fighting the good fight.

I've seen some of the comments on DeviantART and they're just terrible....You keep doing you, Kip!! We all love you!! Don't let them get to you ^.^

Your work it's art!

Av4LoN

If there were a better art platform, I'd use that. I mean I tried Tumblr, but amazingly I get even less viewers there than I do on dA! Unfortunately it's all the same - polluted. Just like the whole world is polluted, it SUCKS. Just like life SUCKS.

RT24

What are people on deviantart receiving art for free, complaining about?

Geb Baserr

Kip, you got the moves, you're pretty swood, and all of the little things you put ito your work are going appreciated here. Getting a notification that you've added a page or pic to patreon is the best part of that day. Thank YOU for making good things out of no things.

Barry Bonds

I honestly prefer DA for keeping all of the artists I follow in one decent place...but the community leaves much to be desired. It's rough but try not to let the assholes get the better of you. Maybe it's time to start looking for a new site to begin migrating your works over to. That way you have the option of nuking your DA account

Shelby Decker

It's an absolute pleasure supporting an artist as talented and dedicated as you. As a creative myself I completely understand how you're feeling. <3

Delilah Lawrence

How do we solve the DA problem? I don't think it's possible, alas. Well, as long as you can find a smile here I'm sure it'll work out! Luvs ya!

Phat94

Aye, I seldom read the comment section of your pieces on DA, maximum cringe. But the thanks are all mine and ours, thank YOU for being Kip, you make dreams come true in the form of art.♥

Ayeda

I first found you through DeviantArt back when Breakfast was being written, so I think it would be unfortunate to close off that access for others. That said the rare times I glance at comments on that site it seems full of the worst people.

TLeB

Though I watch many artists on it, and discovered you through it, I have no reservations calling Deviantart a hole from which light does not escape.

J. Jenny Jameson

What do people say on DA about you? Your art is great, unless its people who come onto chubby girl/weight gain pics and complain because its a chubby/weight gain pic lol.

ManInAPickle

Deviantart is so toxic, and I hardly read any of the comments any more. Sad that it's still such a huge platform for art. We appreciate you though! All the chub love
