stumbled across this blog and decided to read back, its kind of crazy that people only ever mention corrin when this isnt scarjis first time coping another artists style, work etc. they used to be obsessed with copying and stealing from a completely different furry artist. now it seems like they're slowly copying from fenokey.

i dont think theres anything really wrong from learning from another person style but i gotta admit the lack of their own identity over the past 5+ years is sad. but people also can't just chalk things up to typical "copying stealing drama" when someone has a pattern of this behavior with 0 accountability or transparency about it.

Looks like 3 mods left at once, bit strange

Really? Who? 🏮

[alchens-venting]

will this species have more traits

Who knows! 🏮

[alchens-venting]

Came in wanting some tea and left seeing spiderwebs and dust everywhere. Is the species that good where the only big drama was the "off brand discourse" (I won't elaborate due to rules though I think we all are aware), or is it just that nobody is really active enough to add anything to the table? My guess: the latter since the server is beyond scarce aside from some loyal fans or people wanting Scars' copy-paste posed, similar patterned reheated nachos for clout.

The species is so boring it doesn't even have own drama wow

It just means that if you wanted to void a design made by a guest artist/staff, it means you need to contact the guest artist yourself and ask their permission to void a design they made that you currently own. Then you submit your application to void a design together with a screenshot or link of the guest artist/staff's explicit approval for voiding.

On the case that you never contacted a guest artist/staff but received news that a character you own is now possible for voiding, that shouldn't be allowed and should not go through because you didn't initiate any voiding. But! You did get the permission to void said character in the future if you want to.

Thank you for the explanation anon!! 🏮

[alchens-venting]

in Alchen TOS

"Any staff/guest artist made characters are ineligible for voiding unless you have written permission from the artist/creator. Only MYOs (characters made by users) are allowed to be voided."

what does it mean exactly? They can just revoke the ownership or?...

Interesting! 🏮

Depends on timezones but there is activity - and as a member I appreciate folks responding to folks art, wips, and being helpful when questions are asked regarding designs! So sugar to the folks who are being nice in the community

[alchens-venting]

how alive is this species btw? Is it good?

It’s decently alive I think? I’m not active in it even as blog mod xD 🏮

[alchens-venting]

Honestly this whole ''who copied who'' that's currently happening in every single big CS now is tiring. There's only so much originality you can have before it gets too freaky for people. We all love anthro/feral animals at the end of the day. I don't want it to be some crazy to draw niche species when i can have comfortable with a community to share in.

Also older CS just really has the shield of protection of ''well they did it first!'' when they have every single imaginable trait known to planet earth. Just pick the CS you vibe with the most in terms of visuals, community and lore, honestly.

I wish the species had a dedicated design guide, more in depth. The visuals to traits are quite telling sureee, but I would like something... idk, more? In one place?

🏮

[alchens-venting]

it honestly might just be the other arpgs I play that's making me feel this way but i honestly really appreciate the alchens prompts for being easy to complete for the most part. i don't have to bust my ass making an environmental bg for 2 shitcoins and a thumbtack for every prompt. you don't even have to shade to get some prompts done in alchens which is crazy but appreciated

🤓☝️ehrm actually. Painted Satyrs can also have that stupid dragon nose. The only thing that actually distinguishes Alchens and Satyrs is... nothing. C-S has such accumulated such a massive amount of traits for their species over the years that you could just make a Satyr that looks like an Alchen and it would be fully legal

Anon you do have a point… forgot that was an option for painted satyrs! 🏮

Anon. This dragon nose is the only unique thing about them. If they allowed more fluffy face/cat noses it would be just a painted satyr.
