hey folks I have seen my "story" brought up on FB a few times, so I thought I'd set the record straight on this one. I made a video about it

I'm so happy to know this story has a good ending ^^

Whoa, that's an eye opener!
Now it makes sense as to why some people bring up some parts of your old review in their conversations... it's sad, but I'm glad it has a happy ending, too!
Thanks for the video, Raina!

So glad you posted this! I was JUST TALKING about how my feelings on mertailor have kindof taken a 180.
I've been in the community fooor..... 5-6 years now? And when I joined, mertailor was the punching bag, really. Hating Eric was THE THING to do, you know? You guys who are new like there was a thread where we basically harped on mertailor and I think it was the most posted in thread like the whole week I joined the community. I definitely never formed my own opinion on his stuff before hearing all the bad. It continued on that way, I met him for 4 seconds while drunk at merfest, it didn't change my impression of him, really I had never heard anything good about the guy.
Then I decided I was being a child. I mean I was 18 when I started with mermaids and decided to hate this guy and I mean 18 might legally be an adult but lol. No. And I decided to unfollow his stuff and get off my high horse and just live my life.
And like you said, it doesn't excuse anything, but I have to say... I am so impressed with where he's going in the past year or so. For the first time I find myself with like "tail-envy" over those new flukes. I recently followed him on Instagram and I remember you talking, Raina, about meeting him and seeing him in Florida and I hadn't been paying attention but was shocked. Like RAINA??
So I figured if Raina isn't holding a grudge and has moved on, he must actually be doing good work. Because I know you're not about letting people be treated unfairly. So I went on his Facebook and Instagram and was like wow.
So I actually just mentioned the other day to my friend that I don't have a real issue with mertailor anymore. And we brought up a lot of the same things. He seems to be making an effort to be better and I'm like so happy for him. It makes me feel better to not have a random mermaid vendetta that I like... inherited at 18?? I'm just glad he's making more mermaids and making them happy and yay.
Who knows maybe I'll buy a tail from him some day. I wouldn't be opposed to it.
