@ashdev__ not really tbh, a game i solo developed which has hit 50k+ CCU and a few other games that i've worked on that had decent success have always had QPTR declining whenever they enter in discovery/gather more impressions. as long as ur other metrics are solid, i wouldnt rlly worry
@SlutGoblin @g1gglebug@gaiatheepaladin That's the section where creators grant Roblox a perpetual, worldwide license.
It isn't a clause saying developers need direct permission from creators... 🤦♂️
Quote the exact sentence that says a Roblox experience cannot use a Marketplace accessory without UGC creator approval
@s1mplyrick@gaiatheepaladin Right, exactly
This is only saying what happens after content is deleted and about licensing in perpetuity, as well as about a feature where creators may choose to share directly w/ users. However that's not the same as saying direct permission is required for all use cases.
@SlutGoblin @g1gglebug@gaiatheepaladin I'm not denying that UGC creators have rights and are able to file for DMCA takedown. That part is undeniable. My premise/argument is that it doesn't apply the way you think for ordinary Roblox in-experience usage. The link you sent me only proves the first part-
@SlutGoblin @g1gglebug@gaiatheepaladin It does not declare that every use of another creator’s Marketplace accessory inside an experience is unauthorized.
@SlutGoblin @g1gglebug@gaiatheepaladin Filing a DMCA ≠ succeeding. Anyone can file a complaint, it's just if they have the grounds on a case for unfair use or redistribution. In the case of Roblox games/experiences, you are generally allowed to utilize UGC as part of monetization so long as follows intended usage.
@HeyHebi@gaiatheepaladin Filing ≠ succeeding. Anyone can "file" a DMCA claim, but your basis is weak if it's just being used intentionally the way Roblox's platform allows it to be. I've spoken with ppl from DevRel and have had to navigate through this in my Roblox games
@SlutGoblin @g1gglebug@gaiatheepaladin Copyright doesn't apply to using existing UGC Marketplace assets in Roblox experiences. If this were the case, then InsertService wouldn't be a thing.
@gaiatheepaladin As unfortunate as this is, there's really not much you can do since they're not technically reuploading your asset - it's ultimately up to the Gakuran team to decide if they wanna make things "right" or not
@gaiatheepaladin A lot of misinformed ppl in the comments
DMCA claims are fundamentally about copying or distribution. When you upload your UGC to marketplace, you are essentially allowing it to be used within Roblox's ecosystem and platform (Hence, why InsertService exists in the first place)
