On 15 and 16 October 2026, a crawler that said it belonged to Roblox walked through almost every project on Open3DLab, SFMLab and SmutBase, and proceeded to download complete copies of 1,027 files from 712 projects. 145.5 GB of our creators' work, downloaded for what we assume are AI training purposes.

The crawler did not respect our robots.txt, (which it did retrieve), ignored our Terms of Service, (which forbid scraping), and defied the creators' licenses: 423 of the 712 projects are licensed for non-commercial use only. Within the sample it retrieved, it took adult projects at the same rate as everything else. Some examples include models of Eve from Stellar Blade, Mei from Overwatch, and a Horse cock dildo.

    One of them didn't specify the game in the title.

    E: pepper coyote played this song (and a few others) on stage at AZFC 2019, I think (maybe 2021) for all panel attendees to sing along. My straight friend was horrified, I had a blast.
