between kanojo and that apparel previewer that got a cease and desist, i really wonder what fr's beef with fanmade resources is. ive never seen a petsite be so hostile towards basic shit like item databases. neopets even made a bunch of their fanmade resource sites semi-official.

if it was an issue with leeched resources id get it, but kanojo uploads everything themselves, so...????

Plenty of other sites that have fanmade apparel websites, just for other users to test out outfits on their avis. Which FR would allow that with dragons, It'd really help a lot :/

It's not like people are getting free items from this kind of stuff, so I honestly don't see the issue. And FR is the first site I've seen with this issue.

I thought Kanojo scraped FR for data? That could be an issue.

Could also be that they're looking at the gaia/tektek situation, and trying to put a kibosh on anything that could cause issues in the future.

(For those who don't know, tektek was to gaiaonline like kanojo was to flight rising, until tektek decided to branch off and make his own site.)

i think it's more the principle of it than anything?

it's basically datamining FR on a daily basis - which means they need to upload items and release them on the same day, or else they'll be spoiled. i don't think leeching resources is an issue, it's probably more just kind of a pain in the ass.

it sucks that there isn't an approved alternative (especially with accents) but it also doesn't seem like they've actively tried to take it down or anything? tbh it's likely that kanojo may be behind their images breaking on FR; hotlinking shit is poor form.

it's curious because kanojo isn't actually hotlinking FR, everything is now hosted on their own site. and also about the spoiling thing, can't you also individually datamine stuff pretty easily?

actually the reason the images are broken is because every instance of the word 'kanojo' is replaced with a string of stars so the item URLs in bios now read 'http://www.******.com/images/icons/x.png" and thus are broken links.

oh good to know, ty nonny! well in that case it's just them censoring any mention of kanojo, which felt like a long time coming.

i love kanojo and don't really agree with their decision... but if you're going to block mention of something, it's easiest to just filter it out rather than manually remove any mentions of it you see. at the very least it'll stop some of the confusion on whether or not kanojo is an Approved Resource or w/e.

Back in the day before we could preview genes and stuff in the scryer, someone made a site allowing you to do just that and it was repeatedly shut down. I think that person got banned on FR for it too.
