TO BE CLEAR on my stance on closed species
I dislike them when they're made to be cash cows and adoptable fodder. when changing the look of your own damn oc is locked behind paying More Goddamn Money for "rare" traits and what fucking ever. species without any design cohesion to make you think they're part of the same species just so they can shove as many types of designs and traits as possible. closed species who will come for your throat if you make anything remotely similar, even though it's natural to be inspired by designs and concepts
im totally fine with personal species and whatnot. species close to the heart that have rules you don't wanna be broken, or touched at all by someone who isn't you or a friend
maybe ill write a bigger thing on my distaste for adoptable community closed species later. but it's late and I'm tired and I need to stop complaining for the day already LOL
