i'm not sure how to feel about the filian drama now
she effectively profited off of an artist's works without permission through unauthorized merchandise, which isn't nice
but now troons and fags are now entering the scene going "yeah she's also a racist and hurt my feelings by saying bad words that don't actually hurt me or directly call harm to me or my friends, family, or fundamental humanity"
i know filian's clinically retarded most times, but between a retard and literal animals, while both burning is fine in my books, i don't want to let the savage animals eat
- luithe and :awoo_tired: shotgun snuggler :clownpiece_smug: like this.

@rainignterror1080p >why didn't she just find the guy and just pay him whatever his rates were post making money
your guess is as good as mine
>there are scumbag artists who would take advantage of that and probably blackmail you or something similar
that's why i always work solo
-
@ninja8tyu @rainignterror1080p Filian has always called herself a "Vtuber in training" and is probably the reason why she doesn't give a shit about the originality part. Just change a few designs from the stolen model and then meme it. I think what's funny is that Filian has been about the second most popular Vtuber for so long while donning a stolen vrchat model this whole time. 😆
Spoilered gem btw #guro
-
@rainignterror1080p yeah, but filian didn't make the model or design herself, and stole it off of vrchat through a program, and recolored it
it's effectively not hers in terms of about everything but her personality, which is why there's a big drama around monetizing the design itself
also pretty much irl example taking place of my main reason i took up art and creatives
ain't paranoid and overly anxious now
-
@ninja8tyu ah if she just ripped it off of vrchat that's different but why didn't she just find the guy and just pay him whatever his rates were post making money :hyperconfused: but thinking about it there are scumbag artists who would take advantage of that and probably blackmail you or something similar :angery1:
-
i understand being a cheapskate, but...
making merch off of something you didn't make yourself is something i'd have to be stupidly keenly aware of if i ever did it
it's too much paperwork for me to deal with a dumb mistake like that
-
@ninja8tyu ya know i thought the unspoken agreement between an artist and the commissioner was of i commission an oc from you like it's a design i come up with myself i get to commercialize it
-
@ehhh @ninja8tyu The artist may have been vaguely aware of Filian before, but probably didn't care until he noticed big GSC money coming her way
-
@ninja8tyu Wonder why it took them this long to find out something actually bad about Filian - which is the skinsuit that she's wearing this entire time. 🤣🤣🤣
-
@ninja8tyu >She profited from someone else's intellectual property
Based? I don't see the problem. IP cucks can cry all their want :chad:
-
@ninja8tyu @rainignterror1080p so true, i bet Filian commissioned it herself, that's why she can't afford her own model yet, plz understand!
-
@ehhh @rainignterror1080p that better be a paid commission there, shit's probably worth at least a grand to just give away for free
-
@poopernova @ehhh @ninja8tyu
GSC is also partially at fault. For some reason they didn't notice the original artist as well when I'm sure designs get at least credited for the product even if they don't control the IP themselves.
The entire situation is ironic though.
-Trannies hate Filian for making a George Floyd joke.
-Floyd was a typical nigger who was in constant trouble with the law and niggers defend him because "white boy bad".
-Artist then puts their knee on Filians neck for showing fake IP rights.
-Then the internet niggers come to Filians defense saying she dindu nuffin wrong and are defending her because "tranny boy bad".
Society. :back_from_gab: :gamer: :jokerlol:

@ninja8tyu @ehhh @poopernova
>depends on if filian genuinely went and say "yeah i own the model" or something, or if GSC came up to filian with the presumption and made a business deal there
Yesterday to prove a point I had done research to find If the original artist was ever mentioned in relation to Filian. There is one, the gamersupps merch page.
I don't know when this credit happened, but let's say it happened at the start of merch sales. It's pretty damming. If the original artist never had a deal with Filian then this means this gamersupps merch had commissioned an artist to do the artwork. So a situation occured where the original artist never got paid for their work but another artist was paid to copy their work. Very fucked up situation. :back_to_gab:

@zemichi @ehhh @poopernova not sure what info GSC had, but i can imagine they wouldn't know about every artist and whatever shenanigans go on in the digital age
depends on if filian genuinely went and say "yeah i own the model" or something, or if GSC came up to filian with the presumption and made a business deal there
it's all behind the scenes and currently filian's getting the most flak, now that i realized
regardless, wouldn't have happened if filian wasn't as retarded as she is, but oh well. whatever happens next is more a show than it is something to worry about
-
@zemichi @ehhh @poopernova i'm starting to notice that if you do something like steal someone else's works, there's a small delay before people start calling you out on it, that delay being dependent on fame and probably how many people hate you
people are effectively free to do as much bad as they want until then
-
@ninja8tyu @zemichi @ehhh Yeah it's a cost-benefi analysis, for an artist it's not worth the effort to chase randos on Internet using your art. However if it's a popular person with a permanent online presence and likely a lot of money, you could shake a decent amount of change out of them for less effort.
