Blocked by Gonso

huh.. what a weird situation. asking for help shouldn't be punished. i hope that when issues like this happen again, they get resolved more positively
i dont think that gonso is necessarily doing anything bad by reacting this way. BUT* watching this has left me confused. i also believe that you have done nothing wrong.

@kitties9999 yes! I wish I could have shared the conversation before being banned! They told me “Seems Gonso was right”. But like - he wasn’t.
Honestly this is the only site I see anyone mentioning Gonsolicense and I’m such a newbie I didn’t even know people “ripped” avatars. But they said anything I say is useless since I was on this site. Yet wouldn’t help me so… I don’t know I tried everything. I mentioned on my post purchasing the avatar again which was true! But yall informed me it’s a waste! So thank yall! And I heard the wait a year.. but I didn’t do anything and the dude still wouldn’t talk to me sooo.. I don’t think he is going to in a year lol.. he blocked me so I have no way TO contact him. -

@kitties9999 I understand his system probably catches TONS of people. However I know I did not do anything wrong. And the way he avoided me and blacklisted me without reason. It seems so odd. I was more or less curious if anyone else had issues. Or if I am just that UNLUCKY.

Depending on your country, Gonzo is violating consumer protection laws, especially if there's no refund or support option.
So basically you can always reach out to Gumroad/Payhip and get it handled

Update! Was just banned from Cozu’s server and told to do better! They did not want to help me with the issues and I will not be furthering the issue with this avatar. They said the reason for the ban was I was on this ripper site but yet still no reason for why I was blacklisted so that’s okay! I knew it would probably be an issue posting asking for help in figuring out how to contact Gonso or what to do next but I had no other options! I will not be supporting Cozu again (ofc banned lmao) especially since they offered no help! Terrible community it’s a shame she seemed so nice! I’ll stick to free avatars especially since I don’t get on VRChat more than once every other month!
@Vynnator hey so the same thing just happened to me but with byte did some research on Gonso and apparently gonso can flagged up ripped avatars if u got them off of ripperstore or vrmodels I just admitted it in my ticket and left and said I wasn’t really sorry for not supporting creators because why on earth should I be buying something that’s worth 30 dollars when half of the assets were free.
I only ever really supported Cozu because her work was really good and great quality. I won’t be support Cozu anymore even though I’m literally at fault for this lmao
But I don’t think gonso is looking on this site pretty sure they having close to ips? Or whatever that tracks shit idk I’m not rlly educated on gonso

@leiieieh Gonso can def detect if you've been on certain cites on your computer. This includes sites like ripperstore or vrmodels. Which means while he doesn't clearly state it in his TOS he does partly use your information to gain access to weither you've visted these sites or not. Even looking up the site alone without even clicking it can get your license flagged.
Cozu also does not do refunds if you've been flagged for these due to "leaking" related stuff.

@Runmyblade If that's true, it's malware. Not only invasion of privacy, but it's also very ironic that a system made to “prevent property infringement” is itself infringing on property. This only proves that, if your accusation is true, the creator is a cynical egoist. Do you have any evidence to support your claim?

@leiieieh i dont know about gonso but payhip is known for having an anti leak method like that. so the file that you download from payhip has hidden data (called 'metadata') that shows who bought it. this is how leakers are found, because when they share the file from payhip, the avatar creator can download the file and see who leaked it because its tagged with who bought it. this is why if you plan on leak then you should avoid giving payhip private information, or at least dont link it to your vrchat /discord username. other platforms like gumrd/jinxy dont do this, only payhip from what i know. its also possible that payhip shares other information with the avatar creator that could be linked to the leaked file so idk how much you can hide your identity to do it without repurcussion.

for now though, i think the only real danger is ip bans or account bans or your avatar liscence being taken away, so its not actually that bad if youre caught.. -

@leiieieh Gonso tracks your login credentials to check if you have a ripper store login. It checks your download history to check if you have visited and downloaded from suspicious websites.
