INSTAGRAMaTHON Wednesday May 29th!

PhelpsFamilyCrafts · ‎05-28-2024

If anyone wants to post 1 or all 3 (Etsy Favathon, Pinterest, Instagram) of the games each day, let us know! The important thing is that the games keep going! We've been trying to maintain Mike's routine of posting around 4pm EST. Thank you for continuing to engage in the team!!!

Message from Mike Kraus via the FB group (Etsy won't let me hyperlink directly to the post, I'm sorry!):

"ART TEAM ALERT!

Etsy has banned me from running the Art Team because of sharing their survey about their glitchy New Listing Form. This means:

-No FAVATHONS/INSTAGRAMaTHONS/PINTERSTaTHON

-No moderation/SPAM removal

-No message/issue replies

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Please share this information with other members or the ART Team"

Maybe we can keep the group threads going and morale high while Mike works this out. I hope I'm not stepping on any toes posting tomorrow's game thread but I really love this group and the support has been critical over the past few months and I don't want to see it fade away.

I noticed some of your comments on others replies. I wonder if we need to start paying attention to who is actually participating so that we can return the favor in kind? I know I am tired of spending all my time liking peoples posts when they do not do the same.

@LeStellar There are players who never like our posts. I think, rules are written for all, we shouldn't encourage unethical participation.

@crochetCHARTpatterns @LeStellar I wish I had time to track unethical participants and someone here had the ability to restrict or remove or something. As long as there's no Team Captain or mods, this is going to be an issue. From what I'm seeing on the group's FB page, Etsy does not plan to reconsider their decision re: Mike's removal. Very unfortunate.
