Its already difficult enough to get commissions with the worsening economy and AIGen becoming more normalized. To have the little money you earn stolen by bad actors is horrible, to have clients not care because they got the product in the end is heartbreaking.

If I experienced this I would quit.

Also, if you're a client on VGen and your artist asks you to refund your money back and repay them because it went to someone else's account, please do that. These artists, even though they completed the work, didn't get paid for a vast majority of the commissions they did because of this issue.
pepperfyves.bsky.social
I urge every artist to turn on 2FA (Two Factor Authentication) for VGen, double check payments and try to cross reference them with your PPA, and I'd also recommend disconnecting the PPA currently connected to your account and reconnecting your PPA again just to make sure it's yours.
pepperfyves.bsky.social
Only then were they able to realize that some how someone changed out the accounts for payments and were stealing the money. No suspicious links were clicked on by these artists and they weren't sharing accounts with anyone else. It's still unknown how this has happened.

An artist known as Master Blue on Twitter (@MasterBluuu
) and others have come forward stating that they opened tickets for VGen support because they noticed commission money was not going into their PPA (Payment Processor Account). It took them several days before VGen asked about their PPA emails.

#VGenartist Please please please check to make sure your Paypal/Stripe is actually connected to VGen! Not sure why VGen has not posted here on Bluesky but some how someone has been able to change out artist's Paypals with their own to take their hard earned money.

I hope so too, I just gotta see how I'm gonna come up with the $75. I'd open commission but my current tablet is unreliable at the moment, and I'm tired of begging. I'll have to dig through my stuff today and see what I can sell on Facebook, had to part ways with some things anyways.

Ok, I've managed yet again to resurrect my tablet but I am fearful that I might be getting my hopes up. My brother has offered me $100 to help replace it since he damaged it a few months ago, and the tablet is on sale right now but I'm still $75 short...

I already haven't been able to stream for the longest fucking time because of my family not respecting my space and screaming slurs at my door. My whole journey has been nothing but falling down an infinite flight of stairs leaving me feeling like nothing will ever work out. I don't care anymore.

I was struggling already to enjoy making art and playing video games. Now I'll have to learn how to draw with a mouse and keyboard if I even feel motivated to draw digitally again. Even if I try working on that skill I'd have to relearn it because of the move IF I am accepted and find a home.
pepperfyves.bsky.social
Welp, looks like my drawing tablet is done for good. It won't turn on anymore and I cannot afford to replace it. I'm already risking homelessness with my immigration plans and even at that there's no guarantee that I'd be allowed to stay in Canada. I'm so fucking fed up with my life.

It's going to play an incredibly massive role in our survival to help each other as much as possible if there are attacks during the protests.

Together we can accomplish great things, we just have to try. Stand strong, stand united, speak loud, and be proud to be part of a movement for freedom.
pepperfyves.bsky.social
Wear running shoes, keep social distance space around yourselves and each other, be aware of your surroundings at all times, don't wear earbuds/plugs unless you desperately need them, be ready to help our disabled/elderly protestors to safety, bring first aid and water if you can.

We need to exercise extreme caution during #NoKings Day protest in 10 days. Asmongold has basically done a call for violence, saying that Anti-ICE protestors should be shot with live ammo for "being violent". We already know what the right thinks violence is, so please be safe out there.

The safest and most honorable option would be to reach out to their customer support and notify them of this issue as well as offering to return it. They could and likely would charge for the second one they sent if you don't return it. Never trust a corporate entity unless things are in writing.

long on the thumbnail and it auto played. So then on top of telling YT to not recommend that channel to me again I need to purge the video from my history. But it's like battling a hydra, get rid of one of these channels there will be 3-8 more just like it in your feed tomorrow.
pepperfyves.bsky.social
My main issues with it is that it recommends me either content I've already watched, or AIGen music disguised as Nightcore. So I get stuck listening to the same music over and over again, accidentally re-watching a video, and then accidentally watching an AIGen song because my mouse hovered too-

This is a warning to every artists and clients using PayPal: Leave the note blank or send invoices. Apparently even saying "commission" makes them trigger happy. #SaveSpeech #StopPaypros

And continue the pressure by calling PayPal. Helpful link here: anti-censorship-campaign.carrd.co#phonescript

i'm on a million of the most hateful lists you can imagine, but sure, let's draw the line here

just don’t create a moderation list, bluesky said that’s bad

Even though no aid got to Gaza I'd still consider their last mission a success. The Israeli Navy was so distracted that the Gazans were able to fish for the first time in months. That and they got thousands, maybe of millions of new eyes on Gaza now and all of Europe is protesting in their name. 2/2
pepperfyves.bsky.social
It's always been about them. All of their social media posts have been to raise awareness to not just the cause but the genocide that the Palestinians are actively facing. Because of their vast number of ships this last time they managed to get one into Gazan waters before capture. 1/2
pepperfyves.bsky.social
Well, I guess in the end the Palestinians did get a little more food. Because of Israel's navy being so focused on stopping the flotilla, Gazan fishermen were able to take to the sea for the first time in forever and brought home full nets of fish. Probably the first meat they've had in months.

I'm so sorry that you've had to experience that first hand and the struggles you've endured since. I wish you good heath and I apologize if what I said sparked unwanted memory.

Congratulations Rowan! 1000 is not too far off and I know you'll get it soon.
