A professional tattoo artist on this forum has recently
been outed and as a result they have received threats from the established tattooing community. This has resulted in them asking for their posts to be removed and as we take the security and well being of our members very seriously we have had no choice but to oblige. There is a gradual but growing acceptance within the established tattooing community that it is far better to educate those who are set on a place within the business, but unable to apprentice, than to exclude them completely. As we all know "Self Taught" doesn't necessarily mean "Scratcher". There is still, however, a hardcore within the tattooing world who will never accept this a valid route into tattooing. We would respectfully remind users that there is still some considerable animosity from some quarters of the tattooing community toward self taught tattooists and those already professional who help or advise them. We would strongly recommend, therefore, that you refrain from posting any photographs of your face or any other identifying info such as your email address or shop address on the open forum. You should also take steps to protect yourselves in PMs. if you are not 100% sure about the person you are communicating with. These are not new forum rules at present but they are sound advice. It is with a heavy heart that I write this post this but, as we all know, the vast majority of users in this community are decent and respectful & honest. -------------------- We are all laying in the gutter but some of us are looking for spare change...
