i don't mind adding people on skype or discord who want to talk to me, as i love hearing back from people who like my art, or just from those who like to chat. however, if you are going to add me, sending me a heads up on one of these sites, or saying something like "its your user name from X art site in the add request is key as i tend to look at random request from nowhere as spam. i don't get random request often, but sometimes when i do its hard to tell if its an actual person or just spam, and i end up blocking them because i don't want to take the risk. i always worry that i might be blocking someone who might actually want to talk to me, so please, if you are going to add me at least let me know who you are in some way.
