Commission-Zoned
A phenomenon in the art community, and a form of client-zoning. To be denied friendship by an artist hired for a personal work. This typically happens after the customer is handed the finished piece and the artist no longer has the obligation, or any incentive to continue messaging. Emotions can be intensified if the customer has purchased an nsfw work, especially if they are deprived of sexual interactions, and or, if the paying customer feels entitled to additional attention. The customer is usually left with a piece they like visually, but associate with negative feelings.
Person1:
“I think Kai got commission-zoned when he bought the YCH for his fursona.. Kai says he loves the piece.. but he gets visually uncomfortable looking at it.. and he also talks about the artist a lot”
Person2:
“Commission what?”
Person1:
“He tried to befriend an artist and got rejected. Kai can’t even make it into the friend-zone.. but who thinks they can befriend someone running a business?”
Person2:
“Damn”
