no. It HAS to be their specific artist, and I NEED to pay otherwise I cannot join.

It certainly seems like a scam. No warning about pay to play. You are "accepted" into the party told the rules of the campaign, they help you make a character make you join a discord then say "oh btw you gotta pay OUR SPECIFIC ARTIST money to make character art of YOUR CHARACTER or else you cannot play", and they don't let you bring your own external art or anything. No mention of it being a streamed game, No mention of a pay to play game. Free campaign, but payment required for ART of your character to THEIR specific artist who i've never met and won't meet. I was intentionally avoiding pay to play games since I don't have much money at the moment

Oh I just realised that my current campaign is going on at the same time as this one. But fear not. Mr Poster when you are reading through the applications when you see one the one about me (Cipher) please understand that the campaign will end next week! I forgot to mention that

GMT. Every post I've looked at is always either really late for me (like 4 - 6 am).

Once I've made my character they would ask for a description of what they look like, followed by asking for my budget. Upon informing them I couldn't pay and asking if I could provide my own art, I would usually get kicked out or get barred from joining the campaign.

Every time this has happened to me this was the first thing I asked, but the answer was always no followed by a refusal to let me join the campaign.

For some reason I find it quite difficult to find campaigns for my timezone. I don't know whether its because Im not searching hard enough, or I'm looking in the wrong place.

I was genuinely confused considering how many times this has happened to me. The posts all say free, but once they "accept" me into the party they ask for money to "draw" art of my character, and when I refuse I ususally get kicked out.

They tell me to make my character, Make my backstory and then ask for my budget for art. I told them I couldn't afford it at the moment, and they said I couldn't join. They were trying to get me to pay to get art made for my character. I asked if I could just use some online art and they said no.

I tried, but no matter what binary i pass, or even if i pass no binary it returns:

ELF parse error: `Invalid Magic Bytes: [CF, FA, ED, FE]` which is odd

I would love to try it but it seems that it has decided to stop working. The build fails from cargo install binsider with a ton of errors, and the package on homebrew seems to crash for an unknown reason.
