I swear, maybe it's my age showing here, but I've never been quite so embarrassed as a scrapper. Of course, I haven't been doing this that long. I could not believe the total disregard for what Shannon and Christy said and the immaturity level of those just there for a freebie.
Is it just me? Was anyone else there? I will probably never do another chat like that again. It was just horrible. At least Shabby Princess took it all in stride.

Nope, I wasn't there because it started at midnight. If it were earlier maybe I would have been. Sometimes people can be such buttheads. I think Shannon or a mod should be able to kick out whoever is not following the rules.

I was just so disappointed that there was barely time for SP to talk because everyone kept jumping in and when they said they were doing questions for goodies -- OMG!!! It was total chaos!

There was an email with the promise of goodies and those girls were just VULTURES!! It was embarrassing that Shannon and Christy kept telling them to stop posting and they kept going and going!
In the end - they just randomly picked 8 people to get GC's for SP goodies.

I was at church; I really wanted to go just cuz I like Kristy...and I wanted to see if she has a new release coming soon. Does she?
But last time I was at a chat, which was for Gina Cabrera a year ago, the mod didn't show up and NOBODY followed the rules. It was maddening. I went to the oen for Michelle Coleman, too, but that was a long time ago and people DID follow the rules and it was a very nice chat. I love it when designers get to have the spotlight like that.

That's really sad, but not very surprising. That's why I left DST a year ago. I wanted to go, because I think Kristy is a doll and her products were the first ones that I used when I was starting out 4 years ago. But, I figured there would be mass chaos, so I just stayed away.

I have very strong feelings about DST so I'll keep them to myself. But, I really dislike chats because of that. I love going to our Friday night chats here because we goof off and have a good time, but any chat that announces there will be goodies or a chance to win goodies is going to bring out the weirdos.

ROFL I do this all the time! write "shappy" instead of "shabby"
I didn't go to the chat. drives me nuts when people don't follow rules. Shabby Princess is already super-generous with freebies.

I've never been to a DST chat. I hardly go to DST anymore anyway, except to post layouts since that's my most complete gallery.
I wish I could chat here, but everytime I've tried to go into the chat room, my browser just locks up!! POOOOOO!!!! |

I'm like Sarah, I love DST, I just try to stick to its positives and avoid the drama for the most part. (except, of course, when it finds me whether I like it or not
![]() ![]() ![]() I've never attempted to attend a chat there, though, and can't imagine I ever will. Too insane, even if people were well behaved. That's a real shame they were such vultures. It's amazing just how many people have no concept of class and decent manners, particularly when the word "free" gets tossed into the equation. ![]() Definitely don't be afraid of Friday night chats here! They're good times. And, nope, we never talk about boobies, hotties or anything like that. |

well... we *could* have chats here once a while, right? I mean not just on friday nights? The chat room works other times of the week, right?
I'd looooooove to have a chat with some of our designers here sometime! But it's cool that many of you hang out in the forums too. I havn't been back to DST in about a year either. I think Shannon is amazing, but I just couldn't get to know anyone, I got trashed for small opinion differences and just really couldn't find *my place*. Love it here. ![]() I'm sorry the chat was such a disaster. ![]() |

Yup, that's me, too. I was there last night, and it really was just a few people who had to keep adding their [unrelated] commentary or asking repeatedly if they'd missed the freebie link. Unfortunately, I've gotten used to that in the digi-community. I've never been at a big-name designer's chat where that wasn't the case, regardless of site. The SSD chats are unique because designers show up, but they're participating as part of the SSD community, not as featured guests.

I've never done a DST chat, it's just such a big site I can't imagine keeping up with a chat there.
I'd like to do a chat here but it's too late east coast time for me and for some reason, even though Java chat works fine elsewhere, I cannot get it to load here. |

I'm sorry she had such a hard time over there, and the chatters weren't following the rules. Kristy is super generous with her freebies anyway, I mean, she does big, full kits that she gives away, that are amazing quality.
I usually forget about DST chats, they are almost always too late for me in my time zone too. Robin, you know, we can just have our Friday night chat, but we should have one another day in the week too, so you can come!!!

More the 2nd. There were also lots of "Did I miss the freebie link? Where are the goodies?" posts. And there were some unintentional faux pas, too, like people who didn't know that she doesn't like to share her real name pestering her to share it. Luckily there was 1 person there who seemed to know her (a team member?) and she stepped in a few times in those situations.

Actually I don't like (never did) the chat at DST BECAUSE of the rules.
I went last night just because of Kristy. I hate those interview kind of chat. I love the goofiness, the chaos, everybody jumping in for the prizes. I think that makes a chat fun. Because a chat room is for CHAT not just for lurk. To read an interview I rather look for newsletter or a blog But, I do follow the rules the rare ocations I go there BTW: I was the one to ask her to share her real name (and I do know her) but didn't know she didn't want to make it public. I did apologize to her to be the sparkle to the chaos tho.

i rarely go on chats because usually the ones talking are the ones that know each other and i'm quite shy... i'm even so shy to jump in and post in a forum, let alone chats.

Nah, it wasn't really as bad as all that.
![]() I totally agree with you guys though about the people who come in and ask for freebies. I understood the people at the end who asked if they'd missed the promised goodies. But its definitely a pet-peeve when people walk into any chat and ask for free stuff. I mean, sheesh....who does that? "Hey, I'm here at the party. Can I have my goodie bag so I can get outta here?" ![]() |
