I'm hoping this forum would help if anyone noticed an artist switched stores or if they're removed, in case the store page link doesn't work and post it here.
V8 Infinite - Switched from Daz Official, to Renderhub.
She was a vendor there before, but her current store has some clothing, but none of her old (& hopefully new too 😉 } G8F characters yet(?)
There's been a recent flurry of bans at RenderHub, probably in response to some religious asshole calling their characters *K-P*. There's a few pretty nasty comments in their forums.
Wouldn't it be fun if this place offered to host their items for free and implemented a payment system that the banks (under pressure from the these religious zealots) couldn't block or influence? The Zone would become an instant hero!

splashy290Some people will always try to blame a neutral object (like a source model, or a photograph) for the actions of pervs who abuse it. Like the people who equate Pragmata D-I-0336-7 (Diana) with CSAM. There's nothing even remotely "s3xy" about the plot period. It makes me wonder about the people crying wolf more than the person who worked on the character model. Usually, the people attacking, pushing bans, and trying to project things like that onto a child character (That was never even implied in the source material), are the ones guilty of the deviant behavior. They can't control themselves so they want to punish everyone else too. They are literally hoping that because everyone else is "punished" with them, that it will somehow force them to curb their own appetite for CSAM, and surround them with overwhelming fabricated moral support they can't seem to find in themselves. It's like anyone awful who inserts themselves into a larger group for protection. Never been a fan of collective punishment, or pre-emptive punishment, or people who insert themselves into a larger group, then say "if you hate me, you hate them too for my horrible actions!" It always, always ends up destroying the innocent just to sweep up, maybe, a few people who are very guilty. Now if they're adding g3nitals to small children, not a fan of that, but unless they're doing stuff like that, I really doubt there's any merit to some accusations.
it is definitely another purge, since the ones all banned were accused for not disclosing AI and making content involving minors (and the latter is definitely due to the CC/PP companies, since the accounts banned all made content that LOOKED like minors, and yet some accounts were actually making minors/teens. the slippery slope just got more steeper)
Klein Kind and ArtisticArt also got hit, PikaArt is back as JandaPirang, and I have zero clue how BioGearz3D managed to survive the purge.
Then there are sites like Cubebrush and Gumroad which are more tolerant in this regard. Some of the artists have their own Discord servers, so switching stores shouldn't be a big loss for them.
I guess people have never heard of full grown adults who are in their 20's+ who have childlike facial features. It's like they don't know.
@sandeep, Thanks for those links. Gumroad didn't have much but Cubebrush is a gold mine so far. It's fast and the search function is excellent.
If you know of other sites with 3D items, I'm all ears.
Thanks again!@supreme-leech I came across Cubebrush last year while hunting for a rare game mod that wasn't available elsewhere, at least not legitimately. That was the first time I ever spent money for a game mod. The thing with these storefronts, especially Gumroad, is that you need to know that your desired product is available there, which is usually announced within Discord servers or linktr.ee profiles of artists or interest groups that you follow.
