Here is the paraphrased but otherwise unedited story:

Firstly, for nigh incontestable proof that I tried to placate and iron this issue down check here: [link]

1.) Hotartistclub (HAC, Shatterflii and Sadie = admins) contact me, ask me if I want to be a part of their club. I peruse the club and see obvious photo-paint-overs masquerading as paintings. I decline, citing that I do not wish to associate myself with people who paint over photographs and lie about it. (I take no issue with people who paint over photos and are honest about it.)

2.) HAC tries to convince me that they are real paintings. I explain why I believe they are photo-paint-overs. HAC continues to defend the paint-overs. I say: "I still don't believe you, but that's just my opinion." I apologize and politely request that this be dropped.

3.) HAC continues to pester me. They create some glaringly inadequate, obviously reverse engineered process works to "prove" that they are real paintings. I politely tell them to leave me alone and expressly state that I have NO INTENTIONS of calling them out publicly. HAC sends a threatening and insulting note. I send a final angry email and block HAC from my page.

4.) Not long after that, HAC creates an entirely me-based attack-journal filled with egregious lies. Quote: "Bobbie-the-Jean threatens the Hotartistclub! Bobbie-the-Jean singles out and attacks artists! Bobbie-the-Jean spread lies about hardworking artists! Etc ad nauseum. (Again, refer to the proof link above. You'll notice the lack of evidence that I have done any of these things.)

5.) I create my own journal which tells my side. I also create this:

This negates their already inept process pieces which contain almost no transitional steps. Finally realizing that I have thoroughly smacked the HAC, Shatterflii revokes Sadie's admin status and deletes the attack-journal in an obvious ass-covering maneuver. The issue is supposedly dropped... NOT! The drama continues because Shatterflii's fantards won't go away. I respond by flipping out all over the universe and generally behaving like a troll, giving them plenty of ammo to use against me. (Hey, I'm only human.)

6.) VICTORY! Shatterflii finally admits that some of her pieces are photo-paint-overs. She then goes back and edits her works to make it seem as if she were always honest about painting over photos.

7.) Shatterflii creates a piece called: "Kiss my pornstar ass" which is ostensibly designed to piss me off. It is based on another work of hers, Viktoria Rose. I notice that the newer version looks horrible compared to her original. I go and check the original Viktoria Rose piece. As I suspected, she has altered the face to look smudged and awful. Why would she purposefully mutilate her own work?

8.) Fortunately, I had screen-capped and downloaded Viktoria Rose before she altered it. Still don't understand? She tried to make the fact that the piece was an obvious photo-paint-over less apparent. I caught her before she was able to do so. FAIL!

9.) She now charges that my original 'attack' was calling her a fake artist. I never said any such thing. I accused her of painting over photographs and lying about it. Turns out that I was right. SURPRISE! So now, she's trying to go back over her works and make it look as though she were always honest about her paint-overs. She has changed the categories of some of her works from "pinups" to "manips." FAIL! I screen-capped those too and will post them if she keeps up her bullshit.
