Been a bit busy and such with life and, then fact checking some things if anyone is still keeping an eye on things here I will make a post at some point of something. I feel should be addressed sooner rather then later after they are fully fact checked. -🐾
If you're still around given this looks like it died off quickly I do have a suggestion to look into;
Vidia is messaging others in dms about the one that started the drama of tracing in a warning not to cause another situation like they did and if asked to clarify you get the usual tracing, stealing poses, scamming people, freaking out other users in the server to give her a bad name and making up stuff to spread on bluesky, tumblr, and instagram since to new of a species to spread there without their help. Since obviously in the species all this went down in it may be worth investigating in itself as there may be a bigger issue at play than we are lead to believe. If you can't a few other places have been alerted as well so the truth will be revealed just good to have documentation all can see easily.
If there is some proof of it first please send it here and we can go from there
As it is just word we unfortunately cannot dig from just word as I have been told things like to disappear and such easily unfortunately, i should also clarify I am not in the server for the species I have sourced these images from a friend and such and the white king is an outsider as well we just feel a lot of this situation is unfair in ways and should never have fallen like this as it has -🐾
It should be kept in mind I am not an expert in this field I just have a deep love of research, if anything I present in this post turns out to be wrong I will gladly fix or remove the content or correct it depending on the circumstances, the goal is for true and well informed not to be working off a lie. That said given how broad a system it is a lot of the research isn't going to be blatantly spelt out except in one section of all of this. However, definition of tribe however should be considered as has its own point of how this is looked at given how blanketed the word is. For the point of the claim given with how things are presented we are going to follow that a tribe is a social division in a traditional society consisting of families or communities linked by social, economic, religious, and blood ties, with a common culture and dialect, typically having a recognized leader. More than just the definition its important to remember tribes are very proud of their culture in a lot of cases and like to have it on display in their lives and share it with other as long as those it is shared with are respectful, however this does not speak for all so bare with me here.
So how does this pertain to anything Vidia is doing to even come up? Quite honestly it gets back into the species setup as does a lot people started to focus on to judge actions although by definition I wouldn't call what she does with them as tribes specifically but more groups at the end of the day. The setup divides the species into six different groups however they are not different in cultures, in fact they hardly have culture of their own the main focus being to provide tasks of their job trained into to spend their lives in from what we can gather not anything uniquely developed to them, nor is their an advantage taken in art or fashion particularly in the setup he that the hair or things work with the only exception being the sea ones added later on will wear flowers in the hair simply because they are pretty where the other tribes won't even do that much. Spirituality isn't even a thing followed at the end of the day and they are limited to very crude early versions of those things if able to be made at all. There's even to the point these creatures do not store their food last I was aware but hunt and gather on the daily not yet figuring out growing things at home or raising them to make the job easier nor do most have access to fire although the savannah group has most recently discovered it in events. What she has even built doesn't read like a tribe at all at the end of the day or to established instead reading more like the beginning of a culture or civilization trying to start it's first steps at the end of the day, which can actually be really cool and fun but not what is presented.
The strongest argument to a tribal thing at the moment however can become a lot more delicate. Another major difference with the sea group that makes them more advance is the others is not just the fact they have a vague start to fashion forming for them but also they are our first example of them starting to gain access to art since they are the only group to host markings on their bodies that are known to be on the children as well that resembles tattoos.
Typically in a tribal setting tattoos are a rite of passage of their own and represent different things based upon achievements in their lives and have their own spiritual. Ignoring the fact that most go more to woman especially on the chest we immediately go into the fact they lack spiritual focuses and most don't seem they could tie to a specific role as Vidia didn't want to do more than the pallets for the characters. This instantly throws them into the just pretty designs camp and the fact done on children pretty early on does mean nothing special to getting through with things not the tales of who they are and lineage often linked to the actions and roles. It likely doesn't help some people looking at them on the argument of disrespect however as some do align to close to Inuit designs more simplified on the chest which are meant for specifically women to represent motherhood and should be accompanied by ones down on the thigh that are meant to help prepare for the child as well as a safe delivery which would instantly put others off on top of the facts they are put directly on characters with a more tropical ocean than the things you find in the Artic regions that would be from if truly the case. It is entirely possible these are just random designs done on Vidia end however and this should be kept in mind despite things at the end of the day. - ⚜️
🐾 mod here while the other sleeps I was given a few concerning things a bit ago from a friend who wanted me to join this said species that I myself think should be 18+, as well given the content and general laws online for things around minors but even the children of this species unless a specific tribe has been noted has to be naked as well and honestly said content is then made morally dubious as a result they gave me the children examples along with other character examples and really of all of them besides being mostly one person I have no qualms with them they designed based upon what they where given however two people did design them to be covered, for the most part within what they could do so they should be allowed to have some sort of covering given morals and not all are males the creator of this species even designed children in the design examples but used males for it over females for the obvious reasons that unless really furry as I was told down there the females everything is exposed to the elements take these as you will but I feel above all this is important to be known with it.
I am not going to point the finger and claim outright to what most people will jump to first but this is absolutely morally dubious content at the least.
The claims going on in this drama have started over on Discord between the user Vidiathesphinx (Vidia for what's commonly used) and JinxedRoses (Aranta for what's commonly used) over the concern of tracing over a set of paws in another user reference sheet for a closed species that Vidia had made, specifically being without speaking to that person. At some point after being kicked Aranta has mentioned on this site being removed from multiple servers previously enjoyed on Discord besides just the species creator and had decided to make a post claimed to be explaining the situation in one place to link because the accusations simply kept following them with information they said was misleading on top of expressing concern on how it affected their friends on top of themselves. The post would eventually reach Vidia herself which would spark a new situation in the comment sections claiming that even more tracing was being done besides the paws that were actually sold to make a profit on, which from what can be seen in things provided on both sides, wasn't previously mentioned to Aranta as well as tacking on the claim of a scam reblogging the situation to her own blog with the proof she would provide to her claim after tagging specifically the ones that had already provided the information with the claim it was what Aranta was forgetting to provide in the process. This reach out seems to be a downfall for them both as it would start to bleed out of a few others talking on it that predominantly is seen on Aranta blog with how she has been handling the drama however some pop up elsewhere on other blogs meant to be a venting space for closed species directly.
This gets rough on both sides in truth and is heavily slanted against Vidia as far as what comes out given the behaviors going on however how much merit even goes into those claims both from the artists themselves and the community that has currently exposed itself? As an important note not all of these accusations will be directly the drama but things that have gotten mentioned during it and for that much I apologize in advance but as a stance of what's true and what's not since brought up during this drama it will briefly be gotten into. I will be putting the rest under a read more however purely so not just a wall of text if found while randomly scrolling along with the resources pulled-from. As a warning serious accusations me through in the context of this post and the links provided such as accusations of death threats, suicide mention, and zoophilia so you should continue into things with caution - ⚜️
Aranta traced over the paw from another person reference sheet
Honestly they have hounded this one in the start of this all as well as multiple people going over it so I feel no need personally to overly harp on the topic, especially when her own post has multiple studies others have done as part of her evidence. Reference sheets however commonly have paws on them and paws are a cookie cutter shape especially with the background knowledge the species in question is dog based so even without tracing similarities end up happening and this is going to have to be a believe as you will instance. The provided studies suggest they are not traced however differences don't mean not heavily referencing the same things with that in mind. As a note the claim one is from an art student is hard to varify as we do not get definitive proof of this the difference in who is doing it only verifiable by the fact one is from Vidia herself as the tracing evidence as well as all of them having different handwriting. If you want to see them directly resources are linked at the bottom of this post.
Aranta traced over other people ych and sold them as her own
This one gets dicey to argue with two examples provided by Vidia on the matter and only one was able to be found by myself so if anyone has a link to the chibi in question we would appreciate it since a reverse image search had ended up only resulting in a bunch of dicks and feet. That said the thing I can find with the examples had isn't much better given it shows the furry side of the foot fetish a lot. Again the images are in Aranta post as she was willing to reblog that with explanation so please know more than the overlays exist when I cover this.
The first one here admittedly with a reverse search didn't come up with things as the colorful butt lead to more nsfw content than simply the overdone concept of a heart shape butt you find in almost every fandom so is a grain of salt traced purely over that alone. While not providing a lot of concepts in the screenshot had during the planning stage does however host two different sketches done for consideration at the very least so while the claim never seeing the ych can be debated you can not rule out it's possibly true with how often it is done with a quick Google search of 'Furry Heart Butts' or similar having several both of that angle and other perspectives for it. If you are going to argue the leg positioning I think it should be kept in mind while the species in question have the furry legs they are not specifically done as digigrade so the joints are closer to humans from what very little has been provided on the species and that makes them more flat a human example and perspective in mind putting it almost exactly in that position. It should also be noted this whole butt situation she stated was made known the concept was from heart butt's and the whole making a profit argument was made based on $5 said to be put into pet funds. There's even an instance while the conversation isn't posted a refund is agreed to when asked for and it's other people saying not to do so instead since it gives the impression of being in the wrong.
Assuming however that this ych was made known to the one tracing I did try to reach out to Maroon Mads to see if anything had on the situation we were not aware of. My Fur Affinity account is considered to new at this time to message them, the link to discord no longer works, and their Twitter no longer exists so if I get anything of note I will come back with an update on the matter.
This second image is a lot more evident in line breaking from the traced hosting yet again a common concept for furries to have their characters hug their tail for one reason or another. The claim is made on Aranta side is a mix bag of inspiration from the Trolls movie while practicing chibis and the artist Mellon Soup ultimately and that in itself isn't exactly something easily proved not the case or the case just helps explain some cases. It's however also important to keep in mind regardless the situation of this piece Aranta had made it known interest in the species had started to fade by the time it was considered as well as art block going on so she did not post this one for profit merely that it was one considered so no money was made off of this piece regardless of the claim being it was traced being there. Even if it was traced and Vidia argument is true it never went up for money and you can see clear deviations from the pose which shows trying to use knowledge learnt over time on how the body works to change something not liked in the source material. It's also attached to the fact neither I or someone in the comment section of her blog could safely find this particular chibi ych by trying a reverse search and the ways I tried Googling it yielded several similar but not that one in particular.
Vidia manipulated the evidence she provided
This one is a big one in credibility and admittedly one not outright noticeable at a glance unless you are trying to analyze. Regardless if malicious or not the file sizes automatically make one have to shrink down Aranta work to attempt lining them up which in itself can alter details so the clarity of her signature is not surprising. Where it becomes even more obvious however is cases like the lines changed colors of purposely from Aranta black to the red of the chibi example, specifically why that one is even used as the previous example in truth, the odd color rectangle in the same image, the tail of the butt example oddly just a straight cut and hardly able to see Aranta actual paw work in her initial example. The truth of the matter is these choices are odd but there's always going to be some level of manipulation to the comparisons that leaves room for both accidental or purposeful misleading instances. The problem isn't that an image was shrunk down but changes beyond how clear it is with an overlay makes the brain wonder if other things were done we are not aware of.
Aranta openly got hostile first
Hostility was without a doubt shown at some point and this argument depends on how you want to look at it. During the initial conversation we get the insight she was waking up to everything so already wasn't amused. From the start we see a quickness to react however the hostility does not appear until Vidia makes a statement she claims to be sweet while Aranta takes as being talked down to. The next example we get of them interacting is here on Tumblr which is debatable if you want to count Aranta starting with the 'have you forgotten' part the way she did as hostility in truth or Vidia when she starts the whole thing with 'Hi Aranta ^^ Since you decided to drag this here, let's do it then. Haven't you forgot other things ? Let me repost and share the pictures you forgot to share ^^ ' while tagging the two people who have commented their thoughts at the time. Neither had to respond to be clear but this is what sets the stage for others to get involved more since she tagged others as well as reblogged the post knowing she had a decent platform. The only other actual conversation between them we have provided publicly isn't dated as well however seems to be a reaction again on Aranta end after being called a liar about halfway through things.
Vidia did nothing to prevent harassment
This is without a doubt true and that magical blacklist comes into play just as much as how handling the conversation in the server they spoke in some time after the events started. Assuming the blacklist truly posts every known name the person uses like implied, which the screenshot we have does suggest a long list of despite admitted manipulation combining the two screenshots actually had just as well as hiding the actual names on it, then there should be a notion not to attack the person from the start to at the very least have a flimsy see I don't condone this the basic public in these communities expect however that is nowhere to be seen in the part provided. Even if that was had it would have immediately be thrown aside however the moment Vidia refused to at the very least tell the people on that list that the accusation of harassment was made and won't be tolerated if true. A public announcement can be vague enough as a reminder given recent events that no one on the list should be targeted since it was more to keep people aware on why certain individuals were not to have anything to do with the species.
Vidia deleted things and hide in the comments because she didn't get the desired results
This one is just speculation on the reason why. There is no denying the only place to actively find her reblog is where Aranta respond to it or the fact she spoke primarily in the comments of the blog however a why has never been stated. You can infer what you want based on the patterns and actions already presented but it is not wise to work off the assumption it is purely a means to hide because things didn't go as planned. Some don't want things in the open so minimizing it is another possibility. Like all drama in the community a big time creator doesn't want it linked to their name be it true or false.
The blacklists have been inconsistent and are not reliable due to the reasonings listed can range from stalking to something like betraying trust as a friend without context
The lists are not unreliable because they are different in different spaces, things don't always get updated as they happen we are only human after all. With that in mind some reasons do come off as childish when you think of the situations and look into them we just are not here to cover all of those. I personally wouldn't take it as much knowing what I do now but I do not know a lot on a lot of those situations to even judge how warranted they are I just hope the others are not targeted either.
The whole situation is bashing down someone for no reason
It may feel like a senseless beat down but make no mistake it isn't without reason, we just don't know the actual reason it is being done for certain. That said there is no call for whats going on be it from Vidia or others coming into the drama. Vidia set it where she doesn't have to stop harassment with here alone showing instances of it arising again such as implications of suicide, threats made against Aranta and spamming other accounts to drag their name through the dirt. While her blog alone shows instances of this it should be noticed this is an issue among those unrelated just as well that don't even share a similar genre, this is even ignoring a claim made to a plush creator and someone who doesn't do art is present as well.
As a small note with no shown proof, there's talk of a leak revealing address as well as other personal information which has been a draw of concern and if the case is not OK in any manner.
The incident has affected where trying to start a career
Believed or not even without the full statistics in the public eye the fact this is causing people to ask Aranta for a refund means it is without a doubt effecting business, made worse by it was the call of someone with a following to start it and hardly a thing can be found for Aranta doing it. That may not be major when not depending on it and only testing if getting into the art commissions world however it does mean a negative impact was had she has to scramble to pick up the pieces of her reputation while Vidia can go onto the next thing hardly effected regardless of the validity of any claims made.
Vidia is a scammer just as well if Aranta is one for the ych
This sentiment comes from the fact Vidia has a goal of moving out having publicly posted saying things are growing dangerous for everyone in the household and their animals going far enough to post how much she needs and updating funds on it. At some point during this Vidia had posted on slowing down with things because of going on vacation which started the point out of if needing to move so bad why do that. There is no evidence she used the money donated directly in this vacation however it has sparked enough to question given the dates.
Aranta is simply messaging herself and others to drag things out at this stage claiming harassment that's doesn't exist
This has got to be one of the more malicious takes on the matter when we haven't been given proof of this beyond words. I'm sure there are ways to look into this however there are enough differences in ways of speaking to at the very least suggest it's multiple people talking on the matter and sharing different views, come on this is the internet after all, we should at least give enough benefit of the doubt to not suggest they have to keep hounding an event that has had obvious effects even just watching ways of speaking as it goes on. Skeptical is healthy in these situations but that's downright jumping to a negative view that dismisses everything going on automatically against one side.
Aranta is using others to spy
I can not find a single thing suggesting this or a desire to keep things going on at this stage. She has made her own clear point of done with the species and having deleted everything protaining to it so there's no suggested reason to keep an eye on things within it besides a few friends there. There seems to be a scare tactic when coming up before or that it's a gripe also oddly focused an artist is covering it up by acting confused with things going on and offering free art.
Vidia has created a species that should be purely 18+
Honestly if smart it would be looked into legality and not take a random blog word for gospel but that said everywhere knows nudity in a species alone can get iffy fast in this level. If proper monitoring is had then this should have things able to be done but it will always be questionable. Just because the lustful type is locked until you are of age however doesn't mean it is the only thing considered. The species is primarily naked with few exceptions and their parts don't exactly get covered well especially with the females concerned the general view being enough to show this much. Yes this is just the doll but it can be spoken from experience slips absolutely do happen in the server where things are not censored as they should be just as much as topics come up that make others uncomfortable because they should be kept in the adult section. I however do not have all the stuff saved for this point and must resort to Cheshire to share their own findings they feel are necessary in some of these instances.
Vidia species romanticizes things rare genetic mutations that can have serious consequences to those with them by making them adoptables
The handling of color palletes to limit certain traits isn't necessarily wrong to do however the following as close possible was always going to bring this in when you limit things like heterochromatia then start adding in ones for that, vitiligo, albinism, melanism, and other conditions as they can be a lot more sensitive for individuals and you are treating them as a pretty condition that doesn't effect them. It's hard to say this is done maliciously or actually intending for diversity in a wrong way in truth but people also have the right to feel miffed by the fact your basically saying they have to pay for a special skin condition or the fact it's drawn as random splotches that remind others of animals more than how the actual condition forms, which I highly recommend researching as it gets fascinating quick but the anomalies also can come with health conditions in some cases and have a social effect just as well since it wasn't until more recent years we started to be more accepting of others.
Vidia is into Zoophilia
This one is the most questionable in things I've seen to come out because of a few factors. The species itself have drawn out genitals in truth that the males seem to come with a combination of that of a dog and cat combined while the females are harder to place inspiration, however this information is subject to change as of November 6th due to an update to them being made for a reason not disclosed to my knowledge. That said the other argument not relating to her species is the fact she does draw a lot of ocs with the more animalistic autonomy which is more associated with sexualized content however I personally have yet to see her specifically taking part in anything beyond designing these features currently. The oc exist and so does the species that's the part I do know and with such part the argument of fetish always comes up regardless of relevance from the start. Proof of this can be looked at on her toyhouse provided in her cardd as that speaks more than I could and needed partly since used to find the different blacklist just be aware of what you're going into.
Honestly I may be missing some or simply don't have the information others do and for that I apologize but it will be managed as can be. It is however getting to way to much time without sleep and I've gathered what I can think of to be found to present with the least relevant at the bottom and more important closer to the top. - ⚜️
