    I just had this happen, including my world. 3 models were struck by the infamous "Yasuo Shiga" with no further information on which asset was causing the issue. They also reported one for being NSFW (which it isn't, there's an in-between and loading state where, to some other players, it appears naked), and I am suspended for 3 days, so I can't even take anything down before they strike me again. Mine was all Milfy bases.

      @amaneko @jacepace

      look this "Yasuo Shiga"
      https://forum.ripper.store/post/1222202

      If you check the follow list, the employer (creator) will be visible. Upload those public avatar requires some precautions. For example, avoid using names or thumbnails that directly suggest the original avatar.

      (e.g., Shinano โ†’ SNAN or ไฟกๆฟƒ)

      In Japan, users and creators tend to place strong importance on manners and community norms, and they often try to encourage people to legitimately purchase avatars, outfits, and other items on BOOTH. When they learn that assets are being shared illegally, they tend to form a common enemy and attempt to impose social sanctions.

      Because of that, sites that distribute assets like the ones here are extremely valuable to me, and the idea of going out of my way to purchase them feels completely ridiculous.

      Just like in Grand Theft Auto V, letโ€™s steal the assets, throw them into a duffel bag, and share them with the people who want them.

      In particular, when playing VRC, you should be careful about entering worlds that have a large number of Japanese users.

        quick rundown of what i know SO far about dmca and takedowns and how to avoid them

        AVATAR PICTURES, NAMES AND BIOS :

        if ANYTHING about your avatar being a booth model is in the name of the avi or bio, they will take it down, this is most popular with shinano as ive seen the past year, but it can happen to other models

        if a picture of your avi is in the profile, they will assume its their base (even if its a difff pic or not their base and dmca you

        TEXTURES (not really dmca, but strict for takedown) :

        from what i know, vrchat is able to download and look through your privs, I DONT KNOW MUCH ABOUT THAT, but if your using a nsfw texture even tho ur avi is sfw, change it, they will take your stuff down

        TAKE DOWNS ON NORMAL AVIS (not dmca) :

        usually due to names, pictures or bios depicting nsfw or says nsfw, vrchat is soooo strict about this even in private avis

        IN ALLL :

        if you set up your booth models to be public and dont wanna be banned, dont make them public, these creators are like strawbunny type level crazy and will get your shit taken down and they have sued multiple people (and from what i know, won.) If you make them private and have any of the indicators listed, change it, make it less obvious, your way less likely to get flamed that way. If you make private avis aswell, DONT get in public lobbies with them, especially known public instances, there's so many avi creator goons jusst waiting to send proof and dmca you

        models to look out for aas i knoww :

        shinano
        kumaly
        milfy (usually bc of nsfw being big on milfy models, but yk i dont judge ig ;-;)
        and
        SOMETIMES manuka


        I REALLLYY hope this info helps, sorry for bad grammer, and if you want to anything else or i got something wrong please reply and lmk !!

        overall, use sfw textures, make sure your avi pics arent of in unity, no bios indicate it being edits or haveing credits and if you dont wanna risk the ban - dont make em pub

            Yeaah just had another one of my Milltinas taken down last week. Weeks before that I had my first milltina taken down as well. Ive reuploaded them both without tags, so far, no DMCA. Smells like a bot to me.

            I collect shit and I share shit, lets all shit together :D

                  DMCA reports for Japanese-style avatars are handled by AVATARDMCA, which uses scripts to compile lists and submit takedown requests.

                  In my opinion, people in the Japanese community tend to be overly strict about rules and etiquette, which can be quite frustrating. They often say that avatars made by someone else should only be uploaded privately, and that avatars anime or games should not be used.

                  When they find out that someone has broken the rules, they often start criticizing them or trying to push them out under the pretext of โ€œCautionโ€

                  Experienced players also tend to encourage beginners to purchase avatars on BOOTH.

                      They tried with my Manuka as well recently. The fun part is that i have the commercial license and the avatar is private, so maybe if i file a report i can get his real name and yknow, sue the funny guy.
