2. What if the person just doesn't request right, or specifies more than one artist. - Waste of time.
3. Questions will be frequently asked, cluttering the thread with tons of pages.
4. The amount of requests would be about the same as the 3-4 shops combined, that's probably like what 10 requests per week, in one thread?!
5. Artists would have to check on this thread, constantly if they were to satisfy customers.
6. Leechers/Low rep members would request. What if an artist has a rule on that.
The list goes on. Of course there are many ways to avoid such problems, but the organization of this would take a long time. I say leave it be, let people open shops, and request there. That way you give people a chance to decide, and you don't have an over used/abused thread. That's just my opinion. And also, I'm tired of people opening shops everyday! I mean seriously guys, a signature is not a picture+text. (Not aiming at the artists who learn/try, aiming and some of the leechers that have come here in the past weeks, trying to get rep!)
