(OOC) Officially have retired. May come back later out of retirement or something, but as of now, I have no interest to continue. I'm sorry. And thank you to those who supported me in the good and the bad.
One hour away… Australia, your BCW National Champion is inbound. The game changes when I land. No more talk—it's time for business. 🇦🇺🏆 #BCWNationalChampion#AllBusiness
To anyone who continues to defend this, shame on you. Stealing from AEW FF and now Tekken 8 may be one thing, but these are small-time passionate creators who freely put their time and efforts in for the community, and Birdy is taking credit and selling their hard work.
So now that they've confirmed it and are planning to file a DMCA...
Birdy has once again chosen to steal and sell work he didn't make. This time taking custom work from a creator named Shogey. Shogey has confirmed that Lyra/WF has no rights to sell their work like this.
Official Announcement
I am writing to inform you that Arius City will officially close on Second Life starting February 1, 2025.
This decision, which has been considered since last year, was not made lightly. I waited, hoping for an improvement in the situation on Second Life, but unfortunately, there have been no positive developments. The steady decline in user activity on the platform has directly affected attendance in our sim, which has significantly decreased. Even external events in other sims have experienced a notable decline.
At the same time, the costs of maintaining the sim have not decreased. Currently, the monthly rental cost is approximately $200, which would have been even higher without your support through donations. Unfortunately, given the current circumstances, this expense is no longer sustainable for me.
However, it is important to note that this closure applies exclusively to the sim on Second Life.
There will be no changes to the following services and platforms:
• Discord, the website, and Telegram, which will remain active and operational.
• The group on Second Life, which will continue to be available to keep members connected.
• The Arius City version on VRChat, which will be further optimized and improved.
• An upcoming new feature, which I will reveal in the future.
Starting in February 2025, Arius City on VRChat will be fully accessible as a modern and revamped 3D space for those who wish to connect with others.
For residents and merchants of the Second Life sim, no immediate action is required: you will have time to organize until January 28, 2025.
I want to thank all of you for your support and dedication over the years. Arius City has always been more than just a sim; it is a community, and we will continue to stay united through the other available platforms.
With gratitude,
Max Arkala
//these fucking weirdo gays and their sudden hatred of the trans and bisexual communities don't make sense to me......
They do not speak for us, nor do we claim them....
If you’re a bigot, you shouldn’t have a place in the wrestling community.
There’s plenty of echo chambers you can go to be scared of other people simply for being different to you.
The world is shitty enough as it is, you don’t need to add to it.
I cut it down to just over a minute. On the left is the in-game version using AEW's splicing of strike animations, and on the right is the raw motion capture accessible ONLY by ripping the animations from the game's files.
Guess which one theirs is identical too?
