#model theft

I've officially had it with the modeling community at this point. Once again, models of mine have been stolen and reuploaded without credit, with my original rules taken out, and without permission. I'm sick of this, because it has happened more than once now.

The above user is compiling multiple "new" downloads for various mmd models, my Montecore edits being among them, in a similar fashion to how LyraLaney would. Is this Lyra? Not sure, don't really give a shit if it is.

Everyone, please go through their gallery. If you find any of your works re-uploaded, report immediately. Do not comment, either, as the wonderful Winx model creator called them out and was given absolute disrespect as a result.

Due to this mass rule breaking, I'm done. I'm removing my model downloads permanently. I will not give people like this the opportunity to re-upload my work as if they have a right to distribute it against my will. Not only are the deviations themselves being deleted, I will be deleting the downloads at the source. NO ONE will get the models I worked hard on ever again. People like this have ruined that chance.

Now, I admit. I rule break. But at least when I DO rule break, I keep it for a personal model that is never given out to anyone. I may break the editing rule here and there, but never would I cross the line into re-uploading or even distributing such content. As such, don't expect to see mmd content on my dA ever again. That will be solely for my tumblr. I will not associate with the bullshit MMDC drama and content theft that's taken over this hellsite.

A DMCA has been filed regarding my models with proof that I had created the models and uploaded them first. This marks the second time someone had reuploaded my Montecore Miku without my consent, and the first time someone reuploaded my Montecore Rin. Prior to this new event, my 90s Aesthetic Gumi and Gumi Redesign models were reuploaded to Aplaybox. I'm not going through having to report over and over and over again.

Also a bit of a sidenote, the Montecore Rin pack I specifically did NOT include a nude model becuase she's a minor. MEGACollector not only reuploaded my model pack of both Miku and Rin, but they also edited Rin's swimsuit model into a nude model that WAS NEVER PART OF THE ORIGINAL MODEL PACK AND WAS NOT SOMETHING I WAS ALLOWING TO BE DONE.

This is just a small portion of the models that MEGACollector has stolen. They have stolen both edits and official models and reuploaded them without permission.
