šHello! Reaching out as one of the Stardeer species co owners! Contacting you again regarding the Masterlist as some minor changes have been made since my last time reaching out. Please do take a moment to read the following below.
The STARVERSE community has moved its Masterlist to deviant art. The website is free to join. The toyhouse system being used for managing the Masterlist is not intuitive for having multiple staff members manage it. As the species grows this is just too much pressure on the one owner to manage. So itās mine and staffs job to handle such. Many characters are being left unlisted and unaccounted for.
Please understand that this Masterlist is essential for authenticity and manageability for the community as it grows larger. I included a brief list below to answer some FAQ regarding the situation.
āļø Why the move?? The toyhouse Masterlist is unmanageable by anyone more than one person. And when everyone has dayjobs and irl responsibilities as we all are aging and what not. This leaves an incredible amount of pressure on the only person who can access it. And itās just not sustainable. Deviantart is free to join. Multiple of us can log in and edit it.
āļø Iām afraid of theft. What can we do?
We have now edited the templates to track the ownership by either directly tagging your da account or directly linking your toyhouse. We also have happily added heavily watermarked images to the Masterlist to help with pushing off people who are thinking oF thieving.
āļøIām turning my stardeer into something else?
Thatās ok! Just let us know and we will remove it from the species Masterlist if needed. (Ideally Iād like to list its stardeer version on the Masterlist and just label it as retired but either or is ok.)
šWhy now?
Not having these systems in place worked when the community was small. But as it grows thereās currently no real good way to track What designs are even valid stardeer. How will you know if you bought a fake unapproved stardeer or STARBUM? If you get scammed we canāt compensate you. So this is our way to try to help.
This does not put any limits on how you trade sell or use your stardeer! Think of it as a stamp of authenticity! Your character is the real deal and got a gold star from the community.
āØPlease do think on it and let me know. We would REALLY love to have everyoneās stardeer authenticated and validated on the Masterlists. Link me a photo youād be ok using as the Masterlist image or let me know your thoughts. Thanks in advance. - The STARVERSE staff . šš
