I make art and write story's for RP groups. I enjoy receiving comments on my stuff* so if you have anything to say* then feel free to do so.
Some things to keep in mind however the following dos trigger me slightly, so please don't:
Leave "Thanks for the Fav. / Watch comments on my profile (if you want to thank me look threw my gallery as opposed to cutting up my profile with garbage)
Complain about my bad spelling (yes I know my spelling can suck, I can't help it)
Try to use my art for crypto crap or AI art training (yes this includes NFT's and NO you are NOT authorized to use ANY of my work for AI regardless of the reason or model.)
Post comments asking to turn one of my story's into a comic (I KNOW what your doing, and it WILL get you banned)
Post GIF / YouTube videos in comments to me (my browser is set to block them by default)
Try to force me to interact with you on a privacy invasive platform like Discord (I care about my privacy to much)
Try to get me to look at NSFW stuff
That sead I actively welcome:
Leave thoughtful/constructive comments on my stuff. (as long as your not an LLM or trying to butter me up to try and scam me)
Look threw my Gallery (as long as your not a AI web scraper)
I used to try to do a larger variety of stuff. But with how the site has been moving since the 2020 "Eclipse" update, and with DA going headlong crazy into Generative AI I've decided to limit my uploads to stuff directly related to this site, it's ARPG groups, and it's users.
Absolutely agree with your icon! Age Verification can screw off. It's nothing but selling data to AI and commercial companies and in reality it actually puts people (and kids) in danger by locking important stuff behind ID requirements and with VPN bans getting enforced it puts vulnerable people at risk.
Thanks that was really kind of you to post and call out all the bot behavior. Thanks I'm super aware of them thanks to their onslaught that's endless but I try to keep inspired by them, their names are real names, their profiles are artificial, but the names are real names, so I try to find inspiration from them where I can! Thanks again for you post!
I fear that Age Verification will destroy everything we love on the Internet...I fully agree with your opinions on repealing laws and correcting well intended laws to help keep freedom & privacy maximized, plus, AI needs to be toned down significantly, since PeerTube's AI transcription is really freaking me out.
Thank you so much for helping! The tricks people do to others. I'm going to make sure that it will never happen again.
Yeah, I seriously hate the direction that DeviantArt is heading towards...Wix isn't a trustworthy corporation.
⚠️ SCAM ALERT – Protect our community! ⚠️
@BeltonShannon67 is a scammer.
He says, "Hello!! I really love your photo and I would like to use it as inspiration for my artwork. I'm willing to pay for your time and effort and will give you credit for the original photo by tagging you when I post it. Would you be interested?"
This is the beginning of a mural scam! Let's overstep his privacy by reporting him!
Please BLOCK and REPORT! Let’s take DeviantArt back from scammers!
He does NOT want to pay you $500 — or any amount — for art, rights, or to avoid a lawsuit.
💀 It’s a scam!
💬 How the scam works:
Fake contact/project: Scammer reaches out about a “commission” or “job.”
Payment by check: They claim they’ll send a check.
Mobile deposit: They ask you to deposit it using your banking app.
Refund request: They ask you to send part of the money back for “project costs.”
Check bounces: The bank later rejects the check.
You’re responsible: You owe the full amount.
Report it!
Be safe!
I have been contacted by them, but after telling them I wasn't open for commissions they didn't respond.
Wile I had supissons that they were a scammer, I had no proof, but even if I had fallen for it they never would have gotten past step 2 as even when I do have commissions open I don't accept checks as payment.
I am not a resident nor do I live in the USA so that link is useless to me.
Thank you for the heads up.
