#LADsMultiBoycott: Enough Is Enough – It’s Time to Stand Together
“We don’t hate the game—we love it enough to want better.”
Over the past few weeks, the community has been buzzing over translated leaks and rumors surfacing on Xiaohongshu (小红书) and Twitter that point to a disturbing trend in Love and Deepspace (LADs). The upcoming multi-banner—whether it turns out to be the anticipated Spring or Wedding multi—will once again feature long hairstyles separated from their outfits. Yes, again. After all the outcry. After all the feedback. We're here once more.
Let me be blunt: we can’t keep going like this. We can’t keep hoping CN girlies will save us every time. We can’t keep spending in good faith when Infold continues to exploit our loyalty and silence our voices. We can’t keep pretending that fan art and cute trailers make up for broken promises and paywalled aesthetics.
It’s time for us to join together, across servers, communities, and fandoms. It's not about Sylus mains vs Caleb mains vs the OG3. We're all getting burned by the same fire.
💥 What We Know From the Leaks
According to reliable sources:
The upcoming banner after Sylus’s Birthday Event might be another multi-banner format, either Spring or Wedding.
Long hairstyles will be separated from the outfits and placed in a separate crate—again.
This structure mirrors gacha mechanics where full outfits demand 140+ pulls, stretching across 5-star parts like socks, pants, accessories, and hair.
These decisions appear to be influenced by monetization models similar to Infinity Nikki, prioritizing profit over playability or fairness.
📢 So What Are We Doing About It?
We are organizing under #LADsMultiBoycott to push back against these predatory changes. This isn’t just a tantrum. It’s a coordinated protest.
Six-month roadmaps to ensure transparency and accountability.
Higher resource drops from the highest-tier Bounty/Core Hunt.
Stop separating hairstyles from outfits in banners.
New sources of diamond income (no more stagnant gem economy).
No spending for the first 3 days of the banner. Use only your saved-up diamonds.
File official complaints to show Infold that this matters.

🧠 Strategy: What You Can Do
Here’s what our global LADs family is doing:
1. No Spending for Entire Banner Period
Even if you have funds set aside, hold them. Don’t top up.
Don’t feed the system that’s disrespecting your playtime and wallet.
Do not pull in the first 3 days. Choose your LI in the pool, then log out. Let the data show decreased first-week participation.
Yes, log in for dailies, but keep your session short, especially for iOS users. Play Store and App Store algorithms track usage data. Reduced screen time:
Hurts engagement metrics.
4. No Banner Fanart for First Few Days
As painful as it is to hide our beautiful boys, let’s not unintentionally trigger FOMO. Fanart drives hype—hold off until after the peak revenue period.
5. Only Use Android if Possible
App Store rankings are disproportionately influenced by iOS user engagement. Reducing iOS traffic matters more than you think.
🌎 A Global Movement: We’re Not Alone
Our fellow players in China have already shaken Infold’s confidence.
CN revenue dropped by 42.2% from Nov 2024 to March 2025 (from $100M to $57.8M).
Global rankings dropped, while games like Genshin and Wuthering Waves soared.
Their success in the "stop-spending-money" campaign proved one thing: boycotts work.
If they can do it, so can we.
✊ This Is About More Than Just One Banner
Infold believes that as long as they release a sexy card, we’ll cave. They believe we don’t talk to each other. That we’re divided by LI bias and language barriers. But what they don’t see is how deeply connected we’ve become as a fandom.
We aren’t asking for perfection. We’re asking for respect.
If we let this multi go unchallenged, it sets a dangerous precedent:
Separated hairstyles in multi-banners like this become normalized.
Resources remain stagnant.
F2P and low-spenders are permanently excluded.
💡 Why Minimal Playtime Matters
Some of you might be thinking, “But this won’t work?” And here’s why it will:
“Why Cutting Screen Time Works” – The Breakdown
Engagement metrics tank. App Store/Play Store ranks games by DAU, session length, etc.
Revenue drops. Less screen time = fewer ad views = less money.
Rankings slide. Visibility goes down, leading to even fewer players.
It sends a message. A sharp drop in playtime can’t be ignored by business analysts.
💬 “But What If Infold Cancels the Game?”
They won’t. That’s just fear-mongering.
If a company is willing to kill its own cash cow just because fans want better—then it was never worth our support to begin with. But more importantly: they won’t kill it. They’ve seen that the game can pull millions. They’ll just need to earn it now.
🧱 We’re Building Something Bigger
This isn’t just about LADs. It’s about every gacha game that’s begun preying on its fans. If we roll over here, what message are we sending to WuWa, HSR, ZZZ, GI, and the rest?
We all have that one game we ride or die for. But loving a game doesn’t mean blind loyalty. Criticism is love in action.
🧩 TL;DR: How You Can Help
❌ Don’t spend money on the next multi-banner
🕒 Log in for dailies only, pick your LI, then log off
🎨 Hold off on banner fanart for a few days
📉 Reduce iOS activity as much as possible
🗣️ Spread awareness under #LADsMultiBoycott
Even if you’re the only one on your server, know that you’re not alone. We’re tired, we’re frustrated—but we’re not powerless.
Let’s stop funding our own oppression.
No fair treatment = no money. Let them earn it.
