This is a community for art in any medium. Welcome!

Rules:

  1. This is a community to discuss all things related to art. Posts should be relevant to art, such as sharing art or news about art. To clarify, when we say "any medium," this includes media such as painting, film, music, literature, performance, video games, etc.
  2. Keep things civil. Critiquing art is fine but attacking other users for their opinions is not.
  3. Avoid excessive self-promotion. Yes, this is subjective and will be based on how popular this community becomes overall. If you can see a post about your own work on the first few pages, don't post another.
  4. Follow site-wide rules

The one that talks about bots crashing websites and resellers gaming the system? Feels like you missed most of the point and took one sentence out of context. It is not regular people wanting tickets.

You do know that Ticketmaster encourages, or at the very least does nothing to stop these bots and scalpers. Hell, they even facilitate this on their own sites. With a service fee at every turn, they make these fees multiple times on any given ticket when resold.

Fuck ticketmaster and I hope their monopoly gets broken.
