YES, YES THEY CAN! --ahem.

Hey everyone, I just answered this question recently and I wanted to make sure I took a moment to post it here so that my immediate followers all know my thoughts on this matter.

Nothing is truly original, nothing can ever really be gate-kept. I personally hate the term closed species and will not be using it for myself or my creations. That's why you don't see me using those tags or labels, I will avoid them most opportunities I get now. I do not agree with the toxic mindset/rules of most "closed species communities" and their owners.

Pillowings and all "cloverse" themed species exist only to help us have creative guidelines and have fun together as a community if we so wish it.

This has always been my answer for un-official pillowings since their creation. Anyone can make them. I can not stop you no matter how much I ask. And frankly? I don't want to stop you. I want to embrace it with you, these little creations bring me immense joy and I'm thrilled I get to enjoy that WITH my community. Let's dream up silly pillow dogs together!

Pillowings and the Pillowing-Pile Group is still a register-only community where you need to obtain a "myo slot" to make a character within the community group and earn cc with them. But it's not at all necessary to have or enjoy a pillowing, we only ask you to register your pillowings because it supports the creators (Prov and AJ / all of CloverCoin staff) so we can keep bringing you more. Plus it also helps our mods a ton in cases of theft/scams. Otherwise we just can't get involved if the character registration isn't moderated by us. 

But... that's all an optional choice! And I respect that. I just wanted to let everyone know what my current thoughts were on the matter.

Just heck, you like art and creative junk? You like pillowings/cloverse species? Hang out with us on discord! We'd love to have you!!!
