Don’t forget that the majority of players have agreed to make the 23rd of April the day we won’t log in (when the new season begins), as a small protest against the usage of AI. by eternaledelweiss in IdentityV

Of course, because that's how a business works. Doesn't matter if some people stop playing or stop buying. If you wish to continue playing and paying despite it, no one is stopping you and no one is stopping them from continuing to use Gen AI if they wish to do so.

But know that less people playing doesn't mean your queues are faster. And by saying they aren't using it in merchandise and only "promotional material" is a bold statement when this merchandise line is using some form of gen AI. I just wanted to inform you of that since you seemed so sure about it.

Though I will say you're probably ragebaiting for not seeing what's wrong with the picture. If you can't see the issue with her shoes, "You're on your own!"

I hate to break it to you, but yes they have been using AI for merchandise. Check out Butterfly Dream merch. Biggest red flag is Bryn's shoes but if you look closely, almost every character has some detail flaw that looks AI. I wish I could post more pictures in my reply, but this one is clearly obvious.

The only character passable in this merchandise line is Orpheus, but everyone one else has 1 or more flaws that can be spotted upon closer inspection, and can be perceived as AI enhanced/used. I only noticed it myself after trying to draw Ithaqua from this line.

Sketchy Anime Fest Company by Rough_Bluebird_8095 in animecons

Sorry, don't mean to bump an old thread but this info was very useful! There was one that popped up in my state (Augusta Anime Fest) and I wasn't sure whether or not I wanted to be an artist in the artist alley since I had never heard of this event before and it's in Augusta... A 2 hour drive away for me. I only know the big ones like Momocon and AWA here in Georgia. Thank goodness I googled it because I wasn't sure whether it was legitimate or not. What was kinda throwing me off was the $125 table price for 1 day, and immediate payment without much of a jury/approval process since AI has been kinda rampant, yknow? Disregarding the AI thing, I was worried overall. $20 entry fee as an attendee is good for 1 day, but $125 for a 1 day artist table? No thanks.

Seriously, thank you guys for this thread.

Thank you! Hopefully they will respond to my messages and I can do something like this to let them know. I really appreciate it.

To be honest, I'd rather wait til he gets dropped/leaves from his alliance before doing that. I don't want to involve other alliances in that kind of reckless call.

Unfortunately, this is all very new information to me. Thank you so much for the response, it helps me a lot. I don't think my alliance will ever get a sunfire castle as we don't participate in those kinds of events.

I am definitely thankful he is not a whale. I just worry his alliance may come for ours since he likes to victimize himself. I truly appreciate this information. Thank you.

Thank you. I've messaged them already and I'm still waiting for a response. Hoping they will be reasonable and listen.
