      What: Commission



    On August 1st I saw an adverstiment posted in the Megaplex 2018 artist chat for Tiki Badges. I contacted Nya and asked to be added and paid $25 for one. They said that mine might not get done until later after the convention which I was fine with. After this is was harder and harder to get a hold of them. The last time I heard from them was October of 2018. After they dropped out of contact I searched for their twitter and found it hadn’t been touched since late 2018. I now am at a loss on how to find them but seeing as Telegram reports them as active within the last week, I’m assuming they’re ghosting me.

    In looking up one of their handles in your beware, all of their social media, including twitter, FA and patreon have gone dark since September of 2018.

    And their FA states that they took nearly 30 of those badge commissions? They definitely sound like they've gotten in over their head, but their patreon states that they were under the weather.

    I'm banking on the former, and that doesn't excuse that you've been ignored by their only currently active form of communication.
    By chance have you tried shooting them an email?

    Just to cover all of your bases to see what's been going on with them? Their email is listed on their twitter profile, so it couldn't hurt to drop a line there as well.

    Just tried the email. Came back as “address couldn’t be found”. Thanks for the suggestion though!

    I don't want to go dark, but are we sure the user is...still with us? It seems weird that they've just gone radio silent for so long.

    The telegram screenshots are the only indication that the user is still around.
    Telegram gives an exact date if the user has it set to display as such, or it gives a rough estimation of their last activity.

    In March they were still using the program, though they were clearly avoiding messages.
    However, something interesting just popped up when I clicked the Telegram contact link in their twitter profile

    They have either deleted their account or changed their handle since this post went up.
    JinxWolf, do you still have your DMs open to confirm my hunch?

    So I checked my telegram. The chat is still there and still open. She goes by KittenNya on Telegram.
