The DDoS'ers were rejected by Anime Waifus
they got rejected in the void
there are some petty ass fools that play the game, I wouldn't be surprised if it's some some butthurt virgin that couldn't get some E-puss puss doing this XD
I can't log into VRChat??
ddosers be like fuck the anime shitproceeds to ddos the vrchat

ive been bamboozled ;-;
and its down again lol
Well I was in until I tried to switch worlds
isnt its laughingcoffin or smth like that
Yeet
I just got back and saw screen black again
bro why doesnt vrchat discord have a voice so we can chill in?
right!!
Aaaaand kicked
That would be a mess
I'm not sure a Discord server with 80k+ users would do well with a voice channel 🙂
Over 90,000 people in this server
yep d/ced from vrchat
back to not being able to get in, probably a traffic jam from everyone trying to log in at once.
its like vrchat but without vrchat
the community servers channel is probably for that purpose
I agree with Tupper
but tupper, it sounds like the kind of chaos this place needs
The three general channels are chaos enough, I think
xD
this server needs more roles imo

Ehhh
!online
There are 598 users in VRChat currently
More like the entire server will just crash lol
LOL
lmAO
just for apirl fools, see how it fairs
thanos did it again
Hit the server box to make it work again
it went from 2k to 500 that fast holy hell
Woah went from 1.6k to 500 wtf
he snapped twice by accident
OMG
rip
The most they can do is create a few servers with hard and small user limits
Isn't it Laughingcoffin (idk how to spell it) doing this? That's what I heard for the .5 seconds I got back on.

If u sleep im vr you should get some help since you defenitly lost touch to the outside world
Unfortunately, Clementine, timezones exist lol
People who sleep in VR are stupid
Dejen descansar un poco al bot XD
I just relax and talk to people.
people who sleep in fullbody vr are even worse
Wow so judgmental
na we el bot pinches weones me la pelan
i found the person ddosing vrchat who do i show proof to
like especially of youre in a public oy my god
and I'm back in my home world again
show the team
Let people break their shit lol don't judge.
a la madre
People can do whatever makes them feel okay, if they sleep in vr, so be it.
Also if they are sleeping in public, just mute or block, easy.
No need to be dickheads about it.
^
I wonder how long I will last this time before I'm disconnected.
I want a guardian system if a person plays more than 10 hours a day, he can’t connect for the rest of the day
uff miren nada mas ese gugol traductor
I hate the type of people that be like "Who is that guy" when you're in a public world
That's dumb lol
plus like the one time I did it, it was uncomfortable. but yeah no need to be rude ab it, I'm just saying that in public people be rude to them ab it

Oh no...quick bring in the booters and let the people sleep
Id wait atleast a few minutes before going back in
@vocal shard Who hurt you?
LMfAo
Apparently someone who sleeps in VR XD
quick everyone go hug their virtual waifu
no
I dont have one
i just noticed i think im the only one who uses my real picture in my discord profile
woohoo i can go see my miku again lol
Ignore him. He can be selfish when he wants to be.
you're one of the few
But what if i am the virtual waifu? Do i hug myself?
@weary yoke jajajaj waifus!!
Wrong @weary yoke
Me paying taxes for people who are not working and wasting their life in vr @vocal shard 😞
And you being a dickhead is somehow going to change that?
some of the waifus be too crazy for me
Oh boo hoo
how is being in vr wasting your life? you're hanging out w your friends, and maybe they have time on their hands and havent been on in a while.
wait what are we upset about
I bet you also blame unstable finances in the United States due to EBTs?
I dance in vrc so im staying fit by playing. I doubt id be wasting my time since electricity to run a pc is cheaper than a gym membership
lmaoooo it's not wasting your life.
i dunno what yall arguing about the only thing that gets me is the people who get in vrchat relationships then cry in private worlds when their vrchat other does shitty things. just bizarre to me
^
Time spent with friends is time well invested.
Maybe people have meaningful connections. Maybe people have different timezones. Maybe it's none of your business what people are doing.
yeah, I've met a lot of good, good friends from vrchat.

I also have learned so much about other cultures and languages to the game.
i would say half shitty half good

I literally have people from all around the planet on my freinds list that id have never met otherwise
This game can be a very utilizable tool in a productive manner
I wish I had a vr headset
I like watching dancers
It's an online platform. There will always be shitty people
but I'm broke, and saving up for a bass guitar since I'm in a band.
It's the good people you stay for
Ooo my daily vrc fix is gone rip
It might fluctuate
!online
There are 2189 users in VRChat currently
I keep playing hoping the game get's better and improves
Im currently at 1097 hours myself
its just shitty in the oddest way, like gatekeeping. it's actually hilarious how petty people are on gatekeeping, or excluding you because of "Being too sly"
a full haptic suit that simulates touch would be even better, especially for dancing.
Don’t think I’ve met anyone actually shitty - I’m only two weeks in but still
I see one issue with that vegeta. Itd smell horrible from sweat
@safe night lucky you, I've met some incredibly toxic people on there.
I have been in luck and meet some nice ppl
I love dancing
what's all this about sleeping in vr?
Depends on where you hang out in really because i've rarely met shitty people
not if it's properly ventilated.
is someone mad taht people sleep in vr?
lol yeah
apparently don't sleep in VR or something? IDK apparently weird people come by or something
lol what? I gotta hear this story
of course the suits on the market now are for professional use only and a bit on the heavy side.
they look promising though.
@uncut gorge Just some fool that has this superiority complex based on, and I quote "Pays their tax dollars while others waste it by sleeping on vr" XD
He just wanted to be a dick for the sake of being a dick
essentially
don't worry about it
I met my longtime friends back in 2017 of VRChat
i've seen people scream at people while they're sleeping in vr and they dont wake up
I do that only for the memes, and that's for my friends only
I don't see how anyone can sleep in vr
I've only done that passing out to do severe alcohol intoxication
People like him are people who don't want to understand others and why they do what they do
I've met people who've fallen asleep by accident
Its surprisingly common
Most of the time i stay out of public lobbies unless its void/vgl and im practicing shuffling/poledancing
where the open mic people at
But with the lovely giggle water, you can fall asleep anywhere
I usually hang out at Volt
lol the rift isn’t anywhere comfortable enough for me to sleep in
anyone need a friend hmu 💖
sometimes I DJ
people like me don't want to understand why people who spend their life in vr are such failures 🤔
well guess because they waste their life in vr
Volt is where i started dancing but its pretty much dead now, and far too laggy. Plus theres no pole
Says the desktop user
I couldnt possibly sleep in my Index, but rarely I'll use virtual desktop and sleep in my Quest.
yo i got on to drink but it wouldn't let me play all day and i joined the server to see if anything was up and i saw it got ddos and i got sad T_T
Oh no he's back

You seem to put a lot of effort into expressing your discontent for someone who doesn't want to understand.
logic
I don't understand why you would even risk breaking a 300 euro headset at minimum to sleep
I'm Vegeta2988 if you wanna hang out
Its far easier to poledance in vrc if i can line up my irl pole with an ingame one

IRL pole 😳
Yeah it's far too uncomfortable for me to sleep in it as well.
Quest is pretty durable honestly, I wouldnt be afraid of breaking it.
If VRChat stays online that is.
I've slept in vr every night for a year and ah alf now lol
@uncut gorge Your spine must be all types of fucked
I'm always down to hang with some ppl
The only downside to poledancing in vrc is the pole being shiny and reflecting the base station signal and vive wireless signal
I know people who sleep in VR better, because they feel like their friends are around them. It's kinda cute
you should maybe see a psychologist rak
!online
There are 2743 users in VRChat currently
@vocal shard before I forget, what do toxic people do to you? Make fun of your avatar or something else?
everyone else also froze out?
Yeah the base stations don't like the IR interference.

It seems to be working fine for now, maybe it's an isolated issue
Nice I been in cali my whole flipping life
North or South?
North
SoCal here
Void is lagging for me, usually it doesn't
@vocal shard nope my spine is fine @vocal shard why would I need to see a psychologist?
You clearly don't know void then XD
getting a good FPS though so it's not my gpu
I was actually about to hop back on to see if void had people in it
if you sleep only in vr for over a year than there is something definitely not right with you and should go to a check up.
maybe they can help you with that
not sure if they'll stick around
How does a psychological evaluation come into play here? Just because someone is different from us, doesn't make them lack neurotypicality.
Your ego is kinda disgusting @vocal shard
I usually stay near the dancefloor in public voids
Sleeping in vrc is great
Yes it is
I'm about to do it right now in fact!
@vocal shard I hold a 6 figure job, own my own house, have expendable income, and am very happy where I am at. Meanwhile, you are here being miserable because I enjoy something you think is strange. I think it's you who needs a psychological evaluation because stuff other people do that has nothing to do with you should not affect you so greatly unless you are unhappy with your own situation
Personally not for me, but I'm not going to run around and berate you just because you enjoy it.
LMFAO drop the fuck out of that mic XD @uncut gorge
🔥 🔥 🔥
I think waking up would be the coolest part about sleeping VR I haven't tried it nor do I want to It would probably fuck up my eyes
I love how everyone takes people with dumb comments as legit instead of thinking they are memeing
crud I have to go for a while.
well ok for the insult but actually gaming disorder is even now officially knows as a real disease.
anyways if you are only sleeping in vr all night and all day, well then there seems something wrong to me.
i know the cicle of beeing stuck in something and it sounds for me, that a professional checkup and all would be helpfull, and if there is actually a finding it is the best way of getting helped
I would be but I have work in a few hours. I would only on days I don't have work yin
Cuddled up with my long distance boyfriend right now in vrc falling asleep together 👌 
It's not a gaming disorder, it's going to sleep with someone I enjoy spending my time with who just happens to live several states away
Those grammatical errors say so much. XD
But the dude ain't wrong
It's fairly unhealthy also to stap leds on your eyes and sleep normally
Doesn't get you the proper rest you need
Nice
Mentally? No idea, everyone's shot can be right on that
!online
There are 3347 users in VRChat currently
well...in the end it is your decision, but for me it seems, that you could need a little help to get back on track
I adjust the strap a bit with the deluxe strap so it's not pressing on my face once I start passing out
Sweet so I can finally get on vrc
Yes this is true, it's not medically advised to do so. However, neither are indulging in alcohol and cigarettes. Yet, these actions are socially acceptable.
No weight on my face so it's fine
Yeah, loosen the strap, use a proper pillow so your neck is at a good angle etc, you'll be fine
take it how you want but it is more a trying to help than insult
so far the only adverse effect I've had is my face being dry sometimes cuz of face mask soaking up skin oil
You are not helping at all, nice justification though
Well also the thing is that it's not permanent damage like smoking or drinking
It's just making your eyes overly tired, not hurt.
still have 20/20 vision
look at all the backpedalling
no leather one available for index yet 😦
they say having your eyes covered helps you sleep anyway. especially if its with people you trust and care for.
@buoyant heron not with LEDs
i sleep with leds over my head every night and i sleep like a baby
I'll be back after a while
@uncut gorge Not necessarily true. There is still constant retinal deterioration due to blue light exposure. Reducing oxytocin production corelating to less restfulness. So it's not really healthy per se.
That's like strapping the reason for bad sleep on your face
Any type of light is bad for sleep
Leave a lamp on in your room while you try to sleep and you will wake up after the first or second deep sleep
!online
There are 3507 users in VRChat currently
So not medically advisable for the physical ramifications, but I'm not going to be a dickhead and say "you need a psychological evaluation."
I just use advanced settings to dim it by 90%
fair enough
if theres a setting to dim the lights, you can sleep comfortably. i can sleep with bright lights on. everyone is different. if people want to sleep on vrchat, then let them. theyre comfortable enough to sleep in a game amongst people they're comfortable with
"Current academic and medical consensus suggests there are no known health effects of day-to-day exposure to blue light (visible light with wavelengths 400-450 nm), and it is not regarded as a cause of eye disease, eye strain, or disruptions to circadian rhythm, as distinct from any other frequency band of visible light"
i.e. blue light is no more or less damaging than others
all light is bad for your eyes, not just blue 😛
Is the game working again?
Owo
yes
"Digital eyestrain: Blue light from computer screens and digital devices can decrease contrast leading to digital eyestrain. ... Retina damage: Studies suggest that continued exposure to blue light over time could lead to damaged retinal cells. This can cause vision problems like age-related macular degeneration."
Idk where you found what you quoted, but even my professors would disagree with it.
I've conversed about this recently with one of them actually.
@vocal shard the damage is 99% of the cases temporary and with enough rest can recover
Actually damiging your eyes by using it is hard
Still isn't dope to get but nothing that fear monger as in that post
Well but periodic prolonged exposures doesn't allow the eye to rest.
I'm reading from a wikipeadia article about eye damage from tech sources, and according to the sources cited in the article it's mostly just fear mongering and advertising with no real medical substantiation
just let people sleep in vrchat. let them do what they want.
And of course it's nothing detrimental to the ability to live, but you will definitely be affected in the future.
I've been a gamer all my life and even have anecdotal evidence of the effects of prolonged screen exposure to my eyes.
according to this article, it's actually illegal in the UK for a medical practitioner to suggest that blue light damages eyes any more so than other light
Something my ophthalmologist suggested might be the problem since there is no other indication as to why my eyesight and stigmatism got worse over the years.
I think if anything it's in the "maybe, we have some evidence but not rreally, we don't know for sure" territory amplified by people with products to sell
Well of course, I'm talking specifically about blue light's place in certain hormonal productions.
i.e. Oxytocin.
@vocal shard Im blind on one eye
My other eye often gets tired around the end of a long day so I know all about how eye strain feels
You don't get it from sitting in front of a PC
Having to focus hard on things, adjust your vision often and evt doesn't help at all though
Well you are a different case, therefore not comparable to the majority.
our current displays are much safer on our eyes than old CRT's at the very least
No doubt about that, still not the healthiest for our eyes though.
I'm not a different case
I'm just a more clear example of what actions are good and bad
So as long as you don't crank up the brightness to full.
My one eye has better vision then most with two 
everything is bad for your eyes.
Even nachos with cheese?!?
Well having one eye at work will strain it in general, hence why I say you are a different case because most people can use both of their eyes.
small selftest:
"
Pre-occupation. Do you spend a lot of time thinking about games even when you are not playing, or planning when you can play next?
Withdrawal. Do you feel restless, irritable, moody, angry, anxious or sad when attempting to cut down or stop gaming, or when you are unable to play?
Tolerance. Do you feel the need to play for increasing amounts of time, play more exciting games, or use more powerful equipment to get the same amount of excitement you used to get?
Reduce/stop. Do you feel that you should play less, but are unable to cut back on the amount of time you spend playing games?
Give up other activities. Do you lose interest in or reduce participation in other recreational activities due to gaming?
Continue despite problems. Do you continue to play games even though you are aware of negative consequences, such as not getting enough sleep, being late to school/work, spending too much money, having arguments with others, or neglecting important duties?
Deceive/cover up. Do you lie to family, friends or others about how much you game, or try to keep your family or friends from knowing how much you game?
Escape adverse moods. Do you game to escape from or forget about personal problems, or to relieve uncomfortable feelings such as guilt, anxiety, helplessness or depression?
Risk/lose relationships/opportunities. Do you risk or lose significant relationships, or job, educational or career opportunities because of gaming?"
yes. even nachos with cheese.
if people are sleeping in vrc that doesnt mean they have a gaming addiction.
D:
Jesus clementine is still on this shit
they literally want to socialize because they probably dont socialize a lot irl.
@vocal shard I do use two eyes it's just that one shit in sharpness
So both get used and both get tired
if people sleep in vrc, i have the big guess, that they as well spend a lot of time in that game
besides sleeping
!online
There are 4026 users in VRChat currently
vrc is literally a socializing platform.
good
people are allowed to sleep with people that they trust. friends. youve never slept on the phone with someone?
i mean i kinda have a sleepingdisorder myself and it's hard for me to fall alseep, so i often put on an documentary on my laptop and then fall asleep
but besides that, most people who sleep in vr are kinda stuck inside the game as well
nothing more than that
did you know sleeping with your phone next to your head causes rAdIaTiOn pRoBleMs??
I wouldn't put vrchat anywhere along the lines of gaming addiction. It's not really a game. I think it exists outside of any explored area of addiction really.
@umbral reef well then you and I are the same case. However, my deteriorating eyesight is, as suggested by my ophthalmologist, a result of looking at a screen for many hours every day.
And we can't refute a specialist of the eyes on matters of the eyes.
okay but thats you. people can sleep on vrchat if they want to. dont go ahead and say shit when you sleep with a fucking laptop next to you my guy.
Unless if we are a more educated specialist.
well if it holds you back from things in real life i would consider it as gaming disorder
spending too much time on vrchat is more akin to spending to much time at out with your buddies than it is spending too much time playing a video game
why would SLEEPING IN VRC fuck up your life?
if you would remember like last year, where the game was all about drama since people had no real life outside the game, you would understand what i mean
It doesn't hold me back from things in real life lol
ok but. vrc. is a socializing platform. its not a game.
they got games. but its more for socializing. so no. its not a gaming addiction. its an addiction to socialization.
right
dude...it is your thing and all...but maybe just go trough it for yourself just for yourself.
wut
you are comparing a SOCIAL PLATFORM to a GAMING ADDICTION. where are those the same thing.
i wouldn't say making cringy gangs and coming up with drama over a social game is normal but ok
that. is literally the internet my guy.
The more you speak, clementine, the more I question the legitimacy of your neurotypicality XD
like. my iq is droppin. you soundin like a whole fool my guy.
this argument is amazing
Ditto
you legit comparin socializing to fuckin gaming addiction. where the fuck do those two come together.
idk what neurotypicality but i'm not a native speaker as well
There’s always an argument going on here lol.
Yes
@vocal shard english is my second language as well
what
can someone tell me where the comparison is? like. headass
There are 4237 users in VRChat currently
guys im suffering from a socialization addiction. save me.
i need to see a therapist FOR MY SOCIALIZATION ADDICTION. 🙄
Y'all are a sick lot
out here bein fuckin. told being an extrovert online is a fuckin disease.
I just mixed American English and British English in one sentence, fite me
I'll take a shot to this lovely conversation.
Fights @vocal shard
reeeeee
No hurt me ;-;
my guy i need my iq back. its like fuckin GONE.
people who play vrchat have their brains disintegrated over time
can confirm, has happened to me
Was a simple taunt ;-;
I am a weak bean
bruh id rather go to rehab for SOCIALIZING.
Oof
because socializing is an ADDICTION.
false
Imagine having a disorder addiction to socializing
this game made me hate socializing
If your brain disintegrated, you wouldn't be here to type it XD
You mean deteriorated?
dude. fuckin. same. lol.
well if you can socialize outside vr then i don't see any problem.
either or works, puppy, we're all braindead
you can sozialize online and offline my guy. because. thats what twitter. and instagram. youtube. all that fun shit? yeah all those? social platforms.
Yeah I've socialized a lot my entire life. Hence my love for this game @vocal shard
It allows me to learn about perspectives on everything from people all over the world.
are you okay, numikii?
no my iq dropped from this guy felix. help me get it back
Not just limited to people in Mexico or the United States.
i mean interacting with other people in real life, like from face to face but ok
I don't have an IQ, pretty sure I had a few before I installed this game three years ago.
Well yeah that's what I meant, clementine
thats. what. socializing irl is my guy. what. do you know what a human looks like my guy?
like fuck dont like people SOCIALIZING on vrc? dont get back online. because you got problems with people sleeping with others in a SOCIALIZING PLATFORM when their friends live hundreds of thousands of miles away.
@vocal shard Kinda impossible for me, going to college, to not have the ability to socialize irl.
lol
drop your ig if you trynna watch toy story
like my whole social life revolves around my family and friends. irl and in vrc.

if you angry bc people are sleepin on vrc, you gotta reevaluate your entire life.
You can go to college and not socialize. I just don't recommend it
what is even happening
I dont see anything wrong with being very personal with ppl in vrc
Well that'd make, to my perspective, college tedious @tacit plank
I do admittedly think it's rather weird to just "sleep" with other people through VRC, especially considering the sheer physical discomfort of strapping a toaster to your face, but I don't necessarily think it has anything to do with an addiction
^^^^^
i mean. its like the same thing as a face mask. but heavy. and clunky.
Right...so very uncomfortable after an extended period of time.
I did it. I don't really meet anyone worth talking to in real life
pretty much. but if you're comfortable enough to do it with friends or maybe a long distance relationship, then go for it. be comfortable. sleep with your friends and make everyone comfortable and relaxed.
There are a few sometimes, but it would have to be mutual, and social relations are a bother to begin with
@tacit plank I was raised socializing irl due to my sister throwing college parties at my house since I was 12. Now it's comforting for me to converse about any matter with others who are not a total nimwit or negative energied.
So to me, it's not so bad. But to each their own.
I see. That's good to hear!
I didn't really make a lot of friends. I think I made 5 before isolating myself on the internet
having friends online is a huge difference bc they dont know your face and they dont need to see you in person. you can just get online in your jammies, all comfy with some snacks and just be yourself.
Ah I see, I was the popular unpopular person. I made friends with the ostracized easily since I was a misanthropic kid growing up.
But hey, if we can hate people together, you are my fucking brother/sister now. lol
Such a weird individual I am in retrospect. I am a social misanthrope. XD
Does said misanthropy only apply to people you meet in the real world?
I met quite a lot of delinquents, but I didn't like their mentality
It applies to humans in general with how we can be.
They wanted me to steal my parents cigarettes, they were all wannabe gangsters (which reflected in their music) and they were dumb as rocks
Humans have become an invasive and parasitic species, of which I am not too fond of. But certain intentions of the individuals will uplift any discontent I possess.
Yeah can't blame you for not wanting to revolve yourself around that, caffeine.
Hi
There's definitely great people in the world, I just didn't find many of them in real life
Hallot Brot
Yeah, geolocation is definitely a variable in it.
Im just as bad at making friends in VRchat as I am in real life
It's difficult to like somebody who doesn't like you back, but I'd say that it's better than being around people who you hate
True

There are 4832 users in VRChat currently
Guess its fixed now

Still ongoing huh?
I don't know what is the main goal of these people, to DDOS a free game where people can talk and meet
they should be arrested (this kind of thing is something big to even get arrested)
ddos to make the hole server crash or stop working for how much time they want
They often get arrested if they do this long enough as goverments and companies dont pull back punches with this.
And they often do it to 'test' there botnet
Yeah I know but what is the aim of that action
It is in fact illegal but good luck finding out who's doing it
Good thing I'm at work so it'll be a while before I get back on
You could just blacklist all of China, but that would also hurt a minority of VRchat players
Is the game still dead?
Big part of botnets dont even come from china anymore caff
Huh, I see. I think China still has over half the botnets of the world though
@astral latch vrchat may have been ransomed as well
if they really get arrested....they would not probably do that again
Doubt
witch it makes me think that they dont really get arrested at all...
It's a possibility
You can't really arrest across borders easily.
And VRchat has been getting DDOS'd quite a lot, for quite a long time
in the last few several months even a year...vrechat had ddos attacks
So maybe that occurs after VRChat made an announce about the founds they've received if they've got ransomed
The last major DDoS attack was in November of last year
I hope they'll be arrested, they've shut down the main activity of a company
Uh no the announcement says Yesterday at 6:51PM a DDoS attack occured.
If people can flex their "power" they'll do
Maturity is having strength but not needing to use it
The motivation is irrelevant but it's still funny to think it's because an Anime Girl wouldn't touch their pee pee.
omg lol
I mean picture a neckbeard in a fedora getting all red-faced because an Anime Girl (who is really a guy) turned him down for ERP.
Is it fixed yet?
@cinder wharf so for me the guy playing as a girl wouldnt be a problem. but some people need to learn how to chill
then again these are humans we're talking about
DDoS'ing though is so low effort. You can just pay someone else to doit.
did vrchat got some improvements in performance stats in the last 2 months?
i havent played at all since then
Performance improvements? Yes, And a few feature adds.
That depends how long you've been gone.
a
i remember when they made an update for avatars to load faster witch it was cool..but later some updates caused the avatars to load slow again 😄
so probaby now they load again faster..
wonder for how long 😄
Is VRC working yet?
nice ^^
ya most of my friends logged off so i decided to go to bed
Why is the slow down still 15 seconds 
Because they havent set it back yet bahka
Please think before you ask :^)
Ok 100head, I'll do that next 
Ok so I tought for a moment there, and I'm gonna ask, why is haven't the mods set the timer back to 5 seconds?
Because im pretty sure chatmods cant do that but the team has to do that
And most of them are/where sleeping, dont constantly look at the discord and have to be asked to set it lower.
So we can yeet a @queen mango can ya ask
They are probably sleeping at this time, but certainly.
Allright time to @ the entire team 
Already had that covered. Except the entire team part

where are all my furry vr chatters?
Sorry those are discord moderators not vrc
what?
Bahka's making a joke about how the discord admins are furries

The only way to know is to gather them around me in VRC and see how each one reacts.
I know pill will just toss me out a window.
Tupper will call the police.
Noe will set fire to their ipod.
Aev will stop playing jazz music.
Ruuubick I think it the only one who liked my avatar.
And spooky will drive a bus into me.
I may or may not be correct on the following but that is my best given assumption.
Regardless, I still love you all ❤
this game is garbo, ever since the trust system came in, it’s been trash
hi

How is the current status? is it still getting ddos'ed
It should be ok now.

Incase you get a hiccup or two, give it a little time.
oki
!online
There are 4851 users in VRChat currently
Didnt know that was a thing

First time anyone mentioned that and this command was spammed when the DDOS started
Or try rotating your eyes to the right of the screen
That counter doesnt update often enough for me so... no
You need it updated that often? It's typically just a margin of about 200 or so at best outside of server issues
!online
There are 5056 users in VRChat currently
I bet no one except me would complain about you doing it
The servers are fine stop please
It's more like "Why spam it when you can move your eyes" lol
I wish the bot was dead like last night D:
The one on the right is late
it's only ever off by about 200 like I mentioned, it's not like knowing an exact number matters and you dont even need to do !online to see if there's server issues, just scroll up and see 50 people posting about it 2 lol
It showed 400+ with the command when it was like 1k in the right
It's the same bot, its status is updated at a slower rate since as far as I know it pulls from the VRC api somewhere.
i mean at the very least they can make it so the command only works in the bot channel
Gallie ❤ o/
Running the !online command likely causes it to pull from the API so that will always be the most accurate number.
Gyaruium
I don't see you anymore :<
I'm on late at night my time, and really late your time
Just make your own bot to pull form the api 
I ned to hop on in the day a bit more when I can
Aww
Fuckin' timezones
If I do see you when I'm on, may I pop by?
What we just had the same time zone
But don't request faster than once every 60s or you'll get your cheeks 👏
If
If I am able to accept the invite @snow wadi Of course 😁
Yes
General times when I can't are during D&D (friday night) and improv workshop (saturday night)
You would definitely find me in community meetups.
Usually hugging squid for long periods of time.
👌 👌
When you take a public avatar and get it from very poor to excellent rating. #FeelsGoodMan
Isn't 30 considered very poor?
I had a model when put in unity start at about medium. Not too bad. That changed when I wanted some realism in the model.
So it wasn't just stiff like a doll
Whenever you want your model to move more naturally with dyna bones, the rating system starts to stare at you dead in the face xD
Yuuup
Oh you want a more realistic look with slight jiggle and wavyness?
Naahh B you funny
I had to dismiss so many bones in my avatar.
I want to make a joke
The boobs alone have 8 bones each I think >_>
Oh nevermind
That's they the react naturally. XD
Although I did remove the colliders from my hands because evrytime I use the menu I look like I'm fondling with them lol
Oof I've seen that happen.
The only issue with my avatar is people need to use play space mover to speak with me.
There was a butt naked avatar that took 3 weeks to have it removed.
Ima head out
Imma head
I already was introduced to furry spammers and I only have like 5 hours in VRChat
Imma head 👱♂️
o boi, V-ket got extended
by 3 days
DDoS downs game for a few hours, extends event by a few days 
Doesn’t mean it can’t happen again
more VKet
More people ranting about it
That's ok, a lot more people are loving it than the handful that are complaining about prices lol
and I like that this one is a lot bigger so people overseas are starting to take notice
ow, are the worlds getting privated after?
It’s not my problem 
The previous one is still up, so I'm not sure
then whats the 3 days for
Because of ddos
The event itself, deals, advertising, etc
Ig
I hope next event they have more English stuff for western artists, a lot of english speaking people have come forward wondering how they can have their work submitted
hmm
That'd be insane
What is V-Ket?
i should've made a copypasta like FPaul
It's an event within VRChat that showcases avatars, props, shaders, and other assets you can buy.
a virtual 3D art-con
It's similar to Comiket if you know what that is
Oh cool
Virtual Market is a trade and exhibition convention held in Virtual Reality where attendees can freely browse, try on and purchase 3D virtual avatars or apparel. Virtual Market was created in the hopes of enriching and pushing the boundaries of Virtual Reality.
There's also a good way for developers to get their cool shit out there too, not just shaders
this pasta will go out of date in a few days
And this is a limited time thing?
The definition of the virtual market won't change
Anime girl or anime boy fo today? 😎🤔
The worlds might stay up after the event ends, but any advertising, deals, etc will go down assuming they stay up
Some users have stuff on sale because of V-Ket, and there'll be less people exploring the worlds and whatnot
got anything good yourself, mic?
I'm thinking they might have to go down this year because of the advertising
I've already got a massive backlog of Booth stuff favorited, but I did find some new stuff
i meant, did you buy anything yet? 👁
I found something I wanted from the market, its available even after the event. Spoke to the author, she's really nice.
Nah, I'm saving my money for twitchcon trip this week, that's why I havent bought anything from booth lately
ah, i see
I'll be buying stuff after i get back though
I don’t. Hmm. Never mind
The Neneko harpy girl and some accessories for my daily avatar are on the top of the list
oh boi
I'm glad I got a lot of my friends hooked on booth avatars too since they already like supporting artists, this is just another medium for that lol
Patreon is ok
Oh I saw that harpy, I thought it was cute.
Yeah, it looks great ingame
I need to see if i can get a look at the UV map for the wings though before I get it, if it doesnt take to my pastel gradient very well then I probably won't bother
friendo made tokusatsu based model that looks really good but I got no money for it
So I go to vket for pictures only
oo link?
@rigid crescent You should see my Halloween themed BB, it's a complete retexture using the same UVs but I had to be smart with the placement of some parts.
Oh I didn't know that was an original character, I saw one of their vids on twitter
The Vket worlds will go down for a short time and return again later on for people to explore, when the event ends
some booth models are mapped really organized but weird ;-;
it's in the Factory world
I'm guessing they'll go down and have advertising removed and the booths of models people don't want in it any more?
no
Oh you mean the harpy? She's one of the monster girls.
I think it'll be like last one
Ah I only went to Hangar, I still need to check out Factory. I spent all my time in the Shibuyas and Pretty Pop worlds lol
where all the worlds went public with the author's avatar near their booths
There are a few models of her but that one by far looks the most accurate.
Since Yowai's Mimino is in there and I knew there'd be others that use her hanging around the booth
was kinda hope for more vtubers to show up
little disappointed Hololive only turned up with Sora
https://twitter.com/micsounders13/status/1175295173632385024 I lost my shit when I saw the Amoka poster lol
Depends on the instance really. When I went there, I met a few vtubers, but those instances are pretty full and won't show up on the list
I wanted a pic with Subaru so I can get my friend into VRC
since he likes Subaru
also speaking vtubers
nora is going to be on vket tonight
Yeah I don't really follow any v-tubers but I like Aipo, a lot of her photos got me into taking pics in VR, I've been lazy lately but I had a stint where I was just taking fun pictures all the time lol
I...honestly do not know who Nora is.
noracat
No still don't know.
I feel like I've seen that at Castrato
Might be because I don't really follow so many.
I wonder if anyone bought the 2500 yen 24 hour model
the Criminal Girl ones?
it's basically up for 24 hour during the first day of vket
looks good too
author said they might bring it back for sale
500 peeps bought it in one day
yea Nameless
https://puu.sh/Ekqrc/2e6e2c5804.jpg There were so many new miminos when i was around those booths in publics lol
There are 2 avatars in there
For nameless , and it seems to be on sale time to time
vrc fixed?
Yes
my steamvr is still not working
Is it hard to modify avatars? Also are the public avatars available to modify? I really like the possum one, but would prefer it to be a dude
Depends, if you practice enough and have motivation it's not too hard
No you can't download other people there model to edit them.
THere's a possum
Yeah there a little possum lady public avatar
If she's of old age and has a large hat and a handbag, she's a dangerous one when cranky.
yes
Is there a way to check how many people have downloaded and used my avatars?
Sweet when I get home I'll see if it's not going to give me the black screen of death lol
no sadly
i get timed out when afk, cause of my oculus
but i call it an anti afk abuser system 
Damn
How's everyone this morning?
It's 3:31PM for me
How are you this afternoon? XD
Word. Just went outside to see that someone took the giant, near 4 year old child sized rocks from our front yard and placed them on the windshield of my little brothers vehicle.
hullo owo
Hello, rose. :3
hai hai! im new to here and vr chat in general, looking to make sum frandss owo
Well, welcome aboard! I'm only on my fourth day here, but it's been fun so far.
oooh i see :o thank yooou~ =w=

Pleasantly wandering, as it were. XD
oooh yes definitely, if u couldnt tell, i lack the use of better word :')
Well, if we ever meet up in vrc, my SN is the same as it is here. 😄
@ripe blade damn the thing with the rock sounds horrible. There are some really scarred and disturbed people out there :/
ooo okie! my name is 'aiya' in vrchat, though i dont have a mic to connect to my pc, where i play, so if you would like to vc it would have to be here :'3
I got into this cause I have a few health issues that require me to take it easy for the next year or so.
Keep getting timed out
oooh i see, please take care of yourself =w=
@atomic fjord yeah, we don't sweat it. No one is hurt, damage is minimal. I just pray for people like that, you know?
Yeah
so youre a desktop mute, rose?
TT_TT yes, my pc doesnt have a place for me to put my headset because it dumb and old
Oh I gotta update my ranking then
but, i have my laptop but that does not run vrchat well 😢
The hierarchy of VRC: custom FBT avatar > FBT > custom VR avatar > VR > Quest > custom desktop avatar > desktop > desktop mute
I'd have a little too much fun with FBT
how come a pc doesnt have a headphone/mic jack, what is this
I also would love to have my character avi from FFXiV ported onto VRC.
Just do it.
ok it has one but its either, i use the mic, or sound, i cant do both at the same time and it makes me literally cry
damn
wait, did someone say FFXIV im gonna cry i need to dm you
hoooow
i dunno i would like to know how too :crybutsmileoutside:
Do you know what a DEC Rainbow 100 is? That's what (s)he's playing on
"Micro computer" HA
