Thanks for sharing your thoughts OP and I understand your frustration but you could’ve definitely went about it differently.. hang in there and don’t worry about what other people are doing. Just do what you what, and however you want to do it.
There ARE great, generous and appreciative clients EVERYWHERE with lots of $$ to spend. Don’t let anyone talk you into anything you’re not 100% comfortable doing or for less than what you deserve.

100% agree.
You do have to have thick skin, not to just be in the hobby, but especially if you want to be a member of Eccie and post from time to time. Given the number of active memberships and number of posters in forums bears this out that the majority of the membership either do not have the thick skin, they do not want to involve themselves on drama threads (which most are) or both.
Even if you start threads or any post like this, expressing your opinion on what you think others should do, it is your right as a member, but let's face it, you really cannot tell other ladies what to charge for the services they provide. Also, be prepared for the trolls and keyboard warriors that lurk in the shadows to come out shit all over you if you let them.
It is fine to have an opinion, but IMO, those that continually talk about others, quote posts of others trying to rile up a reaction, ect., instead of reponding, cancel your subscription to their drama by ignoring the troll agendas and focus your posts and thoughts on thread topic and of hobby related subjects.
As sweet.treat69 said, there are some great people on here. Nothing is 100%, but on Eccie, to ensure proper knowledge about a member, the trick is, you have to do research, and when you inquire about others, instead of relying on rumors and insinuations without facts to back it up, talk to people that have seen them BCD, look at their p411 okays and the number of them, post history, ect. to determine your opinion on them and your comfortablity with them.
