"Back after a hiatus" is basically what it is soooo here goes nothing!
*harrumphs* I'm FrolleinKram (meaning 'Missy Stuff' basically), former known as Mi.ezekatze. I have been here since 2008 & posted a crapton of creations and tutorials back in my prime untill, as it happens, grown-up life took over. Now I only show some trinkets I made every once in a blue moon,.but I promise I'll be a good girl and post some more.
I do basically everything. I tatt, I crochet and knit, I build, I make jewelry, I revamp furniture, I make my own home decor, I paint a little, I sew, I thrift, I cook and bake, I write, aaaaall the things. And I was lucky enough to create a teeny tiny fan base on Facebook and Istagram that allows me to every now and then sell one of my creations or have people commission things. It's pretty awesome. CO+K has been an everworking source of inspiration to me and I am soooo so happy I decided to join back when *sniffs* Love & Glitter to all!

Ha, thanks for this thread and esp. Monikas post, very helpfull!
Ooookay Ladies and Gentlebugs, here goes nothing:
I finally decided to try and sell some of my jewelry. Now I don't have an etsy shop yet (or the german equivalent Dawanda) because I keep shying away from all the business parts of business, but I have a facebook page going now.
I don't wanna be needy or anything but if you like my work, I'd appreciate a little support by liking and/or sharing.
So far it's all in german because I have to sort through shipping deals before I can offer europen- or even worldwide shipping.
I would also love some feedback on how much you think I should charge for my stuff because I am HORRIBLE at putting a price on things - or better yet, tell me what you as craftspeople would be willing to spend on a handmade accessoire.

Aaaaaand still none of the accounts is gone. Come on, people, please, it's been three months...
Every last 'person' I reported is still here.
Yeah they're back... So, Tom, it might be a big no-no with other co+k users but if you managed to ban posting links in the bio alltogether, maybe we'd get rid of them? Since that is the only purpose the profiles seem to have, spread links and making their profiles seen by following random people.
(It's kinda funny to find "Thanks for the follow"-comments on there xD)
It's getting quite out of hand now, just look at the chit chat forum, it's swamped with spam. (Might not be the same people though). If it helps any, I'd be willing to assist keeping this page clean from that kind of stuff...
Well the one solution I can think of is a new-member-check but I guess it's an irrational amount of work to deal with. Yeah they are not "doing anything" but they are trying to trick co+k users into clicking something. And if said something needs being tricked into, I personally dont approve it... And even if nothing can be done against them, maybe there should at least be a public service announcement of sorts to keep our more gullible or younger members from going to pages that might hold malware or whatever.
Also, by the member IDs you can tell that all these profiles were created shortly after eachother.
Whoa thats even more than i found.
Update: i googled one of the absokutely riddiculous school names given in one of the profiles. All results are member pages of various online communities, all of them equally odd profiles. Its actually quite fascinating. xD
Tracy, i'm pretty sure they do that. :/
Oooooooh I'm afraid I just created another thread for the same thing. Didn't check first, paranoia got the better of me. xD
Were yours all guys too?
Sooo I haven't been on here in a while and had quite a bunch of new notifications. Going through them, I noticed quite a big amount of new, all-male followers (now, it's only three, but for CO+K, that's a lot right? haha...)
I was curious and checked the profiles because it seemed so odd... And what do you know, fake alarm!
The user names are all simple 'real' male names with the first letter of their last name. The bio gives a DIFFERENT name though for every one of them (e.g. one guys user name is david and his profile says Sydney Somethingsomething). The bio text itself is very similar among each of them, each gives us an age, name of their hometown, school or workplace and even the profession of their parents (wtf?).
Now I don't know if this is any concern or what they want, but if they're not up to something nasty, why bother with fake accounts? I personally am going to report these profiles just in case. I'm guessing it's all one person.
Just... why? o.O
i just recently started one. i post rather randomly, my own artworks to fun stuff to dark and eerie photography to many other things... http://karma-manipulation.tumblr.com/
