"We" - you've been shitting on CCP since the late 2000s
Its the regular forum members (who aren't bitter about not getting freebies) who have been "hyping" him for no reason other than they love his work
To be realistic, this website would be several times more obscure than it already is had CCP never existed - not vice versa
If there is anyone who should be grateful...Last edited by Coming; 11-30-2017, 02:03 AM.

^ Yeah, we… isn't this forum a community? Also, I can't think of a more idiotic reason for Faust to critic CCP than not receiving free shit. I don't even know him personally but it just doesn't sync at all with the guy. I do believe Carol got a lot of free press because of this place and the fit pics posted by its members.

Yes, of course, everything is about money and to a lesser extent status/ego.
If you think money is an idiotic reason to do anything, you are very naive
His apparent contempt for the office is certainly based on their refusal to pay him for advertising
His apparent contempt for CCP is probably based more on the fact that they have just ignored his existence completely, which his ego finds difficult to bear. Also he seeks status within the fashion "community", which he then parlays into paying gigs
I think if you go back to 2006, you will see that the meaningful contributions to the CCP thread are all by other members.
While Faust attempts to ridicule, everyone just ignores him, gobsmacked by astonishing CCP creation after creation.

Yep, you got me all figured out, lol. A designer who hasn't done shit for 8 years is as infallible as the pope, a MERCHANT who profits from the forum by actively pursuing its members through its personal messaging system without supporting it under the guise of artistic pretensions is beyond reproach, and the man who has created this community and hasn't charged a penny any of its members, not even for classifieds, is a money-grubbing egotist.

I know Faust and I know Tasos and they are both nice people (at least as much as i know about them both).
I wish we would just all learn how to get along better and stop the petty swipes at each other.
Knowing Faust for the time i have known him i am sure he is not in this for the money. Even though, lets face reality money is an important aspect of what we all do and necessary to keep everything going.......and taking about CCP or whatever brand you want that we discuss here we are not talking about small change.
Forums like SZ needs Carol and all the other designers who make relevant work to either purchase discuss or whatever. And us designers need forums, stores and all the other machinations to keep business going.
For heavens sake the amount of designers that have gone bust since then is A LOT and a LOT of others (myself included) are struggling.
Tasos is not a scammer and not retailer is gonna have flawless transactions with every customer. I am doing retail and heaven knows sometimes the issue i have to deal with and we at Zfactorie are not completely faultless but we try to improve.
Sometimes there is just too much animosity, conflict that can be easily resolved and it just takes everyone down a road we would be better offo not to treadLast edited by zamb; 12-04-2017, 05:59 PM.“You know,” he says, with a resilient smile, “it is a hard world for poets.”

Other than that I've never had issues. If anything, their service has improved significantly over the past two years. I only wish their payment processing would be more reliable.

Originally posted by dddr View PostI don't know yet, if it's a fault with the courier or the retailer. The tracking said it was delivered on second attempt and Spence claimed no initially, after another email they finally said "will check the new returns arrived soon." nothing was specify so don't know what that really means, will give an extra few days and see how it pans out for now. Just that the 1st delivery attempt no one took it which was weird enough and I had to go through a lot of calls and chats with the courier to find out what's going on. Was just curious to see if anyone had similar issue before. Might just be some misunderstandings, will report back later on.
all good!
