We've reached a point in this community where some of the popular and well known members of the community are finding they need a source of income. What is insane is that some people believe that begging their fans for money or putting price tags on game assets is crazy and it's the laziest thing to do possible. Get a fucking job, if your life suddenly doesn't become all about Undertale, that is a good thing.
The more money you give these people the more they are just going to keep doing it. The fact lawsuits have been threatened over someone using assets from a fangame is insane. People have entirely missed the purpose of creating fan works and that is to provide to the community.
Did you know what Wrenblu's gamejolt is still monetized? Wrenblu has been confirmed to have been grooming a minor through discord, yet his account is still up on gamejolt to this day and is still receiving money.
Charging your fans money for your fan creations is scummy, I will never do this. I have seen this with music, barely legal plushies and artwork. If you have an issue with someone using your fan creation, ask them to take it down. Don't threaten them with a law suit or say "hm, you can use it if you PAY ME."
