Heyo. Been awhile, huh...? >> I've been meaning to do a proper "life update" post, but, perhaps unsurprisingly, I haven't quite found the time to get around to it... though the tl/dr preview is: back to steady job, but not a lot of spending money due to debt, so... blehhh...

Anyhoo, to the point for this post - I've now received I think 4 different friend requests on Discord from supposed artists, who, bluntly point, seemed very suspect to me. The ones who actually linked galleries were on ArtStation, which I thought had issues with 'AI'? They of course tried to claim they don't, but the significant difference in quality between backgrounds and characters had me at least suspicious of tracing or theft... that, and I'm pretty sure one or two of them weren't even real people, but chatbots. And, well, not only do I not like having my time wasted on scams, it's a waste of everyone's time, because I don't have all that much money to just casually throw around anyway... :(

So, actual point: I don't mind chatting with people, but don't expect me to RP, and please, send me a note through here first.
