Salty Much?

With its doors open for alpha, it's time to let the salt flow from Figment, Leef's next failure after Evocality's crash and burn.

I didn't even fucking TOUCH the black pets in my last post but, you know what? You're equivocating black people with animals. You put BLOOD on 2/3 of those. That's fucking disgusting. Leef, I hope you and your team fucking choke. This is why I don't actively post because good god, you're all idiots and insensitive assholes.

Hey, Leef? That BLM message you posted? That's fucking bullshit. Don't self promote is one of the only things you should have followed and you fucking did it anyway you self-gratuitous, tactless bitch. Grow the fuck up. If you don't fully support the BLM movement wholly and unconditionally then don't post about it at all. Stop using black people for your own self-gain.

Cncerned

Really concerned about leef saying they work in the video game industry. A lot of those company make you sign a none compete form upon hiring so I wonder about the legality of making a web browser game, while employed or within the time frame those restrictions are in place?

So here's a story for y'all -- I was one of the first colorists Leef hired on at a promised rate of $14 per coloration. Pretty good, right? I did my two examples, was brought on, and we, collectively, began discussing the site. Not three days later, her and Calix start pushing for the price of art to go down -- first to $10, then $7, $4, then finally standing at being paid in IOUs. That's how artists are being paid, last I heard. In IOUs. A nightmare in and of itself to artists, right? Except everyone except myself and one other person were fine with it.

Adding on, Leef promises me $200 for 60 items. Okay, cool, I'll do that until the site starts making money and then I wanted to use my usual rate of $5 per item. But oh, she can find another artist to do them for much cheaper, so would I so kindly take $3.50 per item/$0.25 per recolor?

Absolutely not. At that point I'm just being used because I'm easy and available and if she can push me down at that rate then her and Calix can push me lower.

So I flipped her the bird and quit. 

tl;dr Leef is a terrible boss and pulled a bait and switch on her artists
