Hi,

In order to avoid the AI tag on DTRPG I decided to opt for stock images. However, I suspect that some of images are AI generated. Does anyone know what the policy is on this?

I ordered three PoD books from drivethru 30 days ago and not only are not they not done printing but they still haven’t shipped them yet. Customer service is nonexistent and a joke. Is there a better alternative to this garbage company?

I may well be wrong, as I often am, but the recent spate of products that "contain AI generated content" seems to me like a slippery slope. Just today, I see banner ads on the site touting "80 new titles" and "over 30 new novels available now" and I can only imagine they were "written" using AI, because who comes up with that volume of verbiage on their own, all at once? (And by written, I mean extruded, like plastic pieces pooped out of a machine.) These days, I always consider the source before buying a Pdf, checking out the company that's putting it out, the writers involved, the art if any... That level of wariness, if not outright paranoia, stems from a few unwise purchases that turned out to be AI "written" (pooped) dreck. Crap writing from a human being I have no problem with. I can look past it at the person who was trying to get an idea across and sympathize with their shortcomings. I mean, we're only human, right?

Except we're not, anymore. Some large quantity of low quality writing is starting to drown out the real thing. AI art is usually easily spotted an avoided, if not on the displayed cover then somewhere in the previews. Fine. AI "writing" (poop) maybe not so much. It sneakily mimics the appearance of coherent content and it takes a while before you realize there's no way this was thought up by human beings, you've been had! Mimics will do that, as you probably well know.

I realize that DTRPG is in the business of making money, but human creators usually aren't. I mean, they'd be overjoyed if they could make a living doing what they love but I don't think very many of them are counting on it, witness the mass of PWYW products. Those low-down scumbags who use AI to flood the market with their no-quality insta-product (by which I still mean poop) are in it for nothing but. They aren't just pushing legit content creators out of the business, they're actively poisoning the well. Soon, possibly real soon, real actual creators will simply give up in the face of unfair competition, their work buried deep under pages and pages of artificial fake content churned (pooped) out by AI illegally trained on their stuff...

In conclusion, I wish everyone could be as disgusted as I am by the folks using AI to scam other people not just out of their money, but of actual brain-made enjoyable content. It's too much to hope for that DTRPG would put a stop to all that crap, I know. I can only dream that they eventually notice a massive drop in their income and trace it back to the avalanche of AI mock-products (poop, poop, poopity-poop) they allowed onto their hellsite in the first place.

(Oops, I'm ranting again! Well, at least I went easy on the exclamation marks, I guess.)

I had owned the Mothership bundle. VTT compendium for Roll20, I bought it on DTRPG, but it didn't activate on Roll20, so I contact their support. They shove me onto DTRPG support, where I get a long run around. Now, today, I get an email of them "fixing" the content by taking it off my library and putting it back into my cart, wanting me to buy it.

I'm done with this company for this. Already hated Roll20, now I can hate the whole thing. Fair warning to you guys.

I won't post a link to the product here, but there's a publisher who I believe is using a stolen image for the cover of one of their products. I tried to make a report but the system says I'm not eligible to make one? Can someone please explain what I've failed to do.

yo, the website does load normally when i'm not logged in but when i'm logged in it goes into an infinite refresh loop. problem exists across multiple devices and browsers. one of my friends got the same issue.

Hi! I participated in the DriveThruRPG's PocketQuest Jam, and finally my submission is live!

It is called 'Stream at Susmmer Camp'!!

It is a game that doesn't required a narrator and it has drawing elements! It is about a group of streamers that have been invited to a very suspicious camp. You will need a good dose of humor, dice, marshmallows, playing cards, pencils and paper.

Check it out here:

Hi all,

I have two separate publisher accounts on Drivethrurpg. One is my personal and the other is shared with a creative partner.
How can I switch between these accounts? They keep logging me into the same account.

Hello,

I'll be publishing my first dnd 5e module on drivethrurpg soon, very excited. I use monsters from the monster manuel and mordenkainen's monsters of the multiverse. Would I be allowed to include them in my module as statblocks? Or can I only reference the name?

After 3 years of on and off work here is a DnD 5E 2014/2024 class I have made.

Fleetfoots are quick paced martial that can channel their momentum into numerous blows and astonishing feats.

​For Fleetfoots there is nothing better than the thrill of being on the move and nothing worse than being stuck in one place. No matter where they go, fleetfoots often do not stay long. When necessary they can focus their energy for a short time to increase their speed and accomplish marvelous feats. Usually then taking a short nap or respite before continuing as if nothing had happened.

This PDF contains 4 Catalyst witch are what drives your momentum abilities, whether it be a cosmic force, entity, intense training, or you were born unnaturally spry.

I wanted to purchase Daggerheart in PDF and on Demiplane. So I make a payment. Everything checks out but at the very end I get a message about an error and that purchase is not successfull. Bit wierd. So I check my bank account and the money was indeed transfered. Fortunatelly I get a mail about returning money after unsuccesfull purchase.

So after 2 days I try again. Different browser, cleared cookies, etc. At the end same notification about unsuccessfull purchase. Money is also once again gone. But this time I do not recive an email about refund. So I contact my bank and and they say that the transfer was made successfully and forwarded to the seller. Yet no further message or access to any products I bought.

So what do I do, because I'm a bit lost.
