        I agree with @TOJIRAH, would be nice to disable limits or at the very least enable people who've set their stuff to be private/undownloadable/disabled. I understand that disabling limits would be unrealistic, but, surely making blacklisted avatars available wouldn't be out of the question.

          Is it possible to make blacklisted content available again? Yes, as I distinctly remember at one point someone had made a thread* involving an avatar from a blacklisted user's account by the name Flynsie, and their content is no longer blacklisted as it once was.
          Will it happen for all blacklisted content? To that I say just don't get your hopes up.

          Just because I upload things doesn't make your unity problems my problems to solve, I'm sorry but you can figure it out. Please don't @ me with your issues.

            Greetings, everyone!

            In case you haven't heard, RipperStore will be shutting down at the end of this month. What this means is that starting from October 1st, 2023, all services and access to Ripper.Store will be terminated. We kindly urge you to download any necessary content, files, or information from our website before this date. Once the closure takes effect, the website will no longer be accessible.

            However, our forums will remain operational. In the event that you attempt to access the main website after its closure, you will be redirected to the forums. So, for all those who exclusively use the forums, things will remain unchanged for now. Perhaps, there may be changes in the future, but as of now, they will continue to function as usual.

            Should you have any questions, please feel free to send me a dm here or on Discord under "OTFGBE," or simply leave a comment below.

            Have a wonderful day, everyone! ^^

              Seriously, I would be extremely pushy for an answer, will action be taken to remove the restriction, or not? There's not much time, + I'm at work. I have thousands of avatars to save.

              Should we wait for any changes or not? Please respond.

              Because I will have to negotiate with users who have hundreds of thousands of credits, in return I will thank you with models that are not on the site.

              This is very important. Thank you.

                Removing those restrictions will cause in the queue getting even bigger, it's already at it highest since launch.

                  @admin Thank you for the quick response.

                  I didn't realize there was a queue for avatar downloads. It seems very strange to have to get in line for things that are unimpeded to take.

                  Is there not some sort of workaround for this situation? Or creating a new solution?

                  I'd like to talk more about this if possible in private messages.

                    Question about the archive. Will the administration create a backup copy of all resources? So that it can be used at least through Discord?

                    I know free places for storing files up to one terabyte. It would be great to move everything there.

                    And by the way, I don't see why the site is shutting down.

                      image.png@KeiKei_KW the answer is obvious, I hope everything will be deleted and nothing archived and I hope they keep their promise not to keep any backups of everything

                        @木浪 Thank you for the reply. At least you were able to answer. I don't know why the post said we can write questions and they'll be answered if there's basically no answer.
                        It's a shame that nothing can be salvaged from the administration side. We will have to archive by our own efforts and the community.

                          In that case, if there are those who have a lot of credits on their account, I would be willing to save favorite avatars manually.
                          In gratitude, I'll talk about models that will interest you. So to speak, material for material you don't have.

                              @Lizuap I apologize for the long reply.
                              Unfortunately, 1300 credits is very little. They will help on the free limit increase though.

                              But, I have a lot of private avatars, so it's unfortunately not enough.

                              Let's say I take you up on your offer. What avatars or models can I thank you with that you are interested in?

                                      I don't have much knowledge on file websites that tend to mainly focus on archiving/sharing VR related avatars and assets. I only joined this forum this year, so I'm relieved the forums will stay intact. Furthermore, I found the forums easier to use than that main ripper store site

                                      I would like to ask though if it might be possible. Would it be beneficial to make an updated official master list of websites we could contribute to as a community. Somewhere we could migrate to or use in case we have to go to a new platform in the future? I'm a bit scatterbrained, so I can't remember if we're not allowed to openly give info and/or links to similar websites in case someone advertises a malicious website that's not worth the risk to download stuff

                                      It would be nice if there was a backup plan just in case because I have no clue where else to go

                                      I only discuss eastern market products such as BOOTH.

                                      I'm not interested in western market creator communities in general due to their lack of maturity, respect & professionalism in general. Too much toxicity, sociopathy & narcissism. Especially greed.

                                      Abuse & stalking is still wrong no matter what. No one explicitly consented to being treated badly. If something is not in your circle of control that you cannot adjust. Do not think nor worry about it anymore.

                                      Unethical businesses do not deserve to have an audience nor to be supported.

                                        @Lizuap Sorry to be asking but is there a chance I could ask you to get an avi for me?

                                        This one, SmolOshino's personal I think

                                        If not that's completely fine! I wish you all luck on archiving the avis here

                                          @noir I would've gladly done so, unfortunately the avi you linked is blacklisted so...

                                          Don't hesitate and dm me if an asset I uploaded has a dead link
