PLEASE dont get this post the wrong way because im just pointing this out in the most sincere way possible:
we need to stop assuming that characters are "white" just because they're paler skinned, but also stop assuming theyre "black" just because they are darker skinned!!,
SO I don't usually post this or get involved in this sort of thing.
BUT any good will I have had for the hope that this con would do the right thing and get things together is now OFFICIALLY GONE.
They deleted the entire questions section of their discord (including important questions), mind you this was the ONE place people could ask questions/clarification. They have now decided to ban/kick anyone asking anything of them.
Even clarification is banned. I got banned/kicked for asking for clarification.
I have been civil and just asking questions of them in the server to make sure they are actually doing as they have said they are. SO now to see how their new "staff" is handling things I would advise anyone giving them a chance to get your refund (if you can) and run away.
They are running on "vibes" and the only people allowed to remain or people that don't call their actions into question.

[ Personal Note ]
I'm posting this because in a recent tweet I showed the WIPs of an artist I was working with. Where I asked for the input of other artists on whether or not they saw any inconsistencies with it. I did that because I'm not an artist myself, so I'm not confident in my own abilities to decipher AI usage, tracing, etc.
Due to that post, a mutual of mine informed me of this company and shared the document provided by EAH. When looking through, I saw the artist I was working with under the list of confirmed accounts
Please spread awareness of this! I do not want more people to be scammed. I don't want this company to be able to keep exploiting people working under them. Cleanse your following of confirmed accounts to mitigate risk of falling for their business tactics. Stay safe out there everyone
