    This is just my opinion, but I think Primagens should have just been open. Not that there was anything legally allowing them to keep it closed in the first place, but furries are capable of immense social pressure when they want to in their own circles. Not to mention the fact people did intentionally and wildly outbid everyone else just to have a Primagen character, when the creation of them was exclusive to the original artist. Protogens were "open", however they were limited by what details were "allowed". Even if you think an "illegal" character design should be stamped out for not abiding to certain rules, law dictates that nobody can own the rights to a certain appearance or species. Best you can do is get a lawyer and a judge to agree to make an individual character copyright exclusive to you.
    Another problem can also arise, and this is related to why species can't be lawfully copyrighted, there's a good chance somebody on the dark corners of the internet already created that thing or something similar under a different name. I mean think about it, if somebody created a Primagen look-alike back in 2005, but somebody in 2019 had found and thought it was "illegal", what would happen? Somebody would be bullied and harassed just because an uninformed busybody was too focused on being somebody's attack dog.
    All species should be open, and if you don't want other people taking your "original species", don't publicize it. Otherwise somebody at some point will come across it and want to make their own, and stopping them is cruel in of itself. Then by this point, it's not longer a matter of considering the feelings of who created it, you have to consider every single person's feelings who wanted one and made their own.

    Closed species just...kinda suck, both morally and in law. You can't copyright a species, fortunately but it's just kinda greedy to ask people to pay for 1 member of a species, even if it's "unique"

      @@cinnastag semi-open means that they don't charge you to make one, or require that you get permission but they put an arbitrary list of guidelines and will usually react with a great deal of immaturity when people decide not to follow them, in the same way as when people try to create a character with a closed species.
      In contrast a fully open species can be edited and modified to your heart's desire, in theory there is a point where what you've created is no longer the original species but that's up for debate and is dependent on the situation.
      Again these conventions are incredibly stupid, they don't have legal ground and overall are just incredibly immature. Reminds me of the kids on the playground who are fighting over toys after they were told to share 🤦‍♂️.

    I know I'm late to this, but I feel like I should clarify a few things.
    2:52 The last auction actually went higher than that, up to $3,000 (possibly more).
    3:44 There actually has been a lot of progress, though it's all been behind the scenes. The official website should be out by the end of this year.
    7:25 Protogen only have biological ears. What you're likely calling "digital ears" here are fins on the cheek panel.
    10:19 Until the official website is up, I would recommend checking the official hubs on Instagram, Discord, Furaffinity and Facebook, as those are where most resources are going to be.

      Closed species can't be copyrighted/trademarked or enforced whatsoever therefore any closed species including primagens are technically open as unofficial primagens exist and they no longer blacklist and harass and dox people since its illegal and it got a bunch of backlash from it and the whole thing causes nothing but drama and negativity. To put things in perspective closed species are just a furry version of Non Fungible Tokens (NFTS) and I call them Furry NFTS. Its also a method of gatekeeping and exclusionism like nothing will stop you from being creative and drawing whatever you want when you're legally allowed to so if you wanna make a primagen/protogen fursona and suit go ahead but just dont associate with their official groups and I been told this by a few official primagens I'm friends with. Closed species creators can go be greedy somewhere else we don't need their bullshit around. And if I wanted to I could easily remake Kaiborg Studios, Furbitten Studios, and Garuda Studios primagen suit designs in Blender or SolidWorks but I won't since I already made my own design that's way better and way more accurate than theirs anyway.
