I know it’s irritating when someone’s nitpicky about their OCs, but if I’m paying you, don’t half-ass it. But I’ve learned my lessons and only order commissions from people that offer preview sketches now.

I don't think anything too hateful's been submitted here. Artist-confessions has almost 7k followers and a lot more negative confessions but drama would start either way (plus there's tons of "bad art blogs"). But it's more helpful, even with people's art being criticized, sometimes there's posts mentioning people who always gets away with being art thieves and scamming people for their money. If you can't handle someone thinking negatively of you/your art then you shouldn't be on the internet.

That person...only had like, under 200 pageviews, didn't know they could get hate. I mean, there's people with like way more that don't even get noticed positively or negatively.

People can get hated/loved online whether or not their pageview count is high or not.

I don't think this blog should publish confessions that target a specific artist especially if it's a negative confession. I know it's hard to phrase a confession when you're not allowed to say who you mean but the problem with confessions like those is that they really aren't nice and from the blog's point-of-view, they're not very relatable. (I have no idea who these people mentioned in the confessions are so I won't reblog and I would be devastated to see someone trash me on this blog.)

Well, everyone’s entitled to their opinions, even if we didn’t allow name-dropping, it wouldn’t stop them from submitting their opinions to artist-confessions or another similar blog instead, though if a certain artist wants a confession about them taken down, then we’ll delete it. This blog is just for people to express their opinions about all of deviantart, including the members and staff that’s a part of it. If you want more ‘relatable’ blogs, I suggest these two (though I’m sure there’s a lot more you can find if you search around tumblr long enough.)

That last person/confession sounds pretty bitter to me, or just directing it towards a specific person in general.

Well, any confession’s fine as long as it’s not “___ sucks” and that’s it, and they didn’t mention a specific person, I just copy and paste them and don’t try to censor anything.

What's typography?

Typography (from the Greek words τύπος (typos) = form and γραφή (graphe) = writing) is the art and technique of arranging type in order to make language visible” (wikipedia) Sorry I don’t have a more personal answer, I’m not that familiar with it but you can do searches on Google and DA for other examples. :)
