I've had my eyes on this person for a while after noticing their x64 bogsneak raffle. Which already seemed very suspicious. Between when they joined and started the raffle was 20 days which is in no way enough time to get all the bogsneak eggs by yourself.

Someone did ask how they got so many in a short amount of time, they said they did G&G everyday to get all the eggs. If you do the math it was roughly ~20 days from when they started to when they made the raffle, from only doing G&G is 1.5mt which gets you roughly ~23 eggs. Assuming they had all the mats and didn't have to buy any. Now I know they could have bought gems but it just seems very unlikely to me.
They are also not recording the tickets bought in any public way, and not providing any proof to them actually having all the eggs. It's really not that hard to take a screenshot, even if it's a faked one. Their raffle just seems like a huge scam tbh and I would avoid it at all costs.

They are also using bases without credit.

They say they will credit when asked, but finding the artist on DA says to credit them regardless.

Also in the artists TOS for the adoptable says to not use it for commission work, but yet it was being used in shadow foddart.

I'm not sure if shadow as anything against using bases in foddart that aren't yours, even though it was still pretty cheap I still feel like its wrong to do. They have a toyhouse account and seem to have the same issue of not crediting artists on there, even when asked to credit the artist, they still haven't.

At first I thought they were some kid who didn't know better but according to their toyhouse they are 22. More than old enough to give credit to artists. I haven't seen anyone mention them, so I'd thought I'd bring it up and see what other people thought.

You must use archived links. It’s the new rule.

NAYRT

Here, since you wanted them, I archived the (relevant) pages from both the giveaway thread and the art thread.

Giveaway thread: https://archive.md/gLu2w / https://archive.md/jAK0f / https://archive.md/7diFy

Art thread: https://archive.md/3MAy7

And for good measure, the base. https://archive.ph/3a8qp - and here's the shadow foddart page with said credit too. https://archive.md/svJLp

Personally, I'm more curious if this is the same OP from the FR tumblr? Or if OP just wanted to cross-post... that's neither here nor there, though.

Honestly I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't have 64 eggs. IMO, their plan was probably to get the remaining ~40 while they waited for the 5k tickets.

If you ask me, their behavior is more 'innocuously shady' than outright scammer... for now, anyway. The lack of a response re: ticket count & screenshot seems to be typical for them, given someone in their profile comment section was barking up their tree a whole month later. https://archive.md/A7Zsd

ack thank you. I thought I read all the rules I guess I missed the one about archived links, and no I'm not OP from the tumblr. I saw the post and got curious and decided to look at their profile

In all fairness, it is a new test rule so it'll take time to get used to :P

i was never sure why you guys believe anyone on the internet when it comes to age.

1. its ableist as fuck to assume because they're older, they have the cognitive ability of someone that age. someone can be 22 and have the developmental ability of a 10 year old. they may be on the autistic spectrum. they might have a brain injury. it could be literally anything?

and

2. it could be a kid that is lying about their age. cmon now everyone here is guilty or knows of someone who clicked that "yes I'm 18+" when they definitely were not. there are lots of kids on flightrising who say they are older to avoid COPPA laws as well.

I always tend to take ages with a grain of salt, and treat people based on how they act. They act mature, who cares if they say they are 13. If they don't, I don't care if they are supposed to be 100, they are still acting immaturely.

This is why I hate it when people go 'have you ever thought they are 15! they are just a KID!' or 'I bet they are 13' when someone brings up a player who is being annoying or actively doing something against the rules.

Like FDS, everyone was like 'oh they are just a kid' and got really upset when they were locked for spam. (and understandably upset that maybe they weren't allowed to role play out side of the correct forums). Then it came out that FDS had deliberately manipulated the screenshot to say spamming, when they were actually banned for multiaccounting, and suddenly there were no more 'but he is just a kid!' when his antics were brought up.

For one, I don't believe that being young is an excuse or 'get out of trouble free card' when it comes to some things (some things are more understandable when the people are young, whether physically or mentally, and harassment is never okay, period.), and I also don't automatically believe it when someone says they are 'x' just to get a pass on something. Whether it be age, mental illness, physical ability etc..

NAYRT, but if I shrug someone off as a kid, it's not because I think it's an excuse for their behaviour so much as I don't want to be the kind of person who yells at children on the Internet. They may well be still in the wrong, but it's just not my business.

Most of the time, these people aren't 'yelling at children' but rather complaining about it on blogs like DR and the Saltmines, and here. Many times, these people haven't even posted on site to the person in question, they just want to vent.

To me, I think the issue is that the 'but they might be a *kid*!' sounds a bit too close to 'kids will be kids' that is often used to excuse behavior that SHOULD be stopped.

Also, as an aside, I thought I once found a place that said, but can't find it now, but what do the acronyms NAYRT and the like mean (I am pretty sure they are about replying and identifying people, but acronyms and me? Not friendly at all)

AYRT: Anon you replied to
NAYRT: Not anon you replied to
DA: Different anon
OP: Original poster

Thank you, I knew OP, but Nayrt and Ayrt always throw me for a loop trying to figure out what they meant. (I could guess that YRT was you replied to, but the first letter or two didn't make sense)

BINGO
