Response regarding the secondary use of prompts

Q: So, if I don’t pay, I have to allow the unauthorized use of my prompts, right?

Even if I set "Prohibit creation in the same style" in the post, wouldn't it be pointless if someone just copies the prompt displayed on the work?

A: Currently, SeaArt does not support a feature to hide the prompts (spells) for works, nor does it offer settings to completely prevent copying. Therefore, even if you set “Prohibit creation in the same style” when posting, it is technically possible for others to view and copy the prompt displayed on the work. While all works are reviewed within the platform, we are currently unable to provide specific restriction features regarding the unauthorized use or imitation of prompts. We apologize for any inconvenience and appreciate your understanding.

Q: So, from the site’s perspective, the secondary use (theft) of prompts isn’t a big deal, is it?

<br>

<br>　

A: We sincerely apologize for any misunderstanding this may have caused. At SeaArt, we respect the works and prompts of all creators, and we certainly do not take plagiarism or unauthorized use lightly. However, due to the current system specifications, we are unable to completely hide prompts from published works or provide features that technically prevent copying. We have received feedback on this point from many users and recognize it as a critical issue for future improvements. While you are free to share your opinions on forums and other platforms, we would appreciate your understanding that our current specifications do not imply any intention to “condone theft.” We will continue to strive to create a better environment.

Q: It’s not right to lie when nothing is actually being improved. You’re not really having any discussions about improvements, are you?

<br>

<br>　

A: As you pointed out, we are unable to provide a specific improvement schedule or firm commitments, and we deeply apologize for causing anxiety and distrust through such statements. The reality is that we are not yet at a stage where we can provide definitive information regarding the implementation of a prompt hiding feature or copy protection. We sincerely apologize for giving customers unfounded expectations that "improvements will be made in the future." We appreciate your understanding of the current situation, where we are unable to meet your requests due to system limitations, and we thank you for continuing to use our service despite this. However, if you are not satisfied, there is no need to continue using it.

The response from the administration essentially boiled down to: "If you don’t like it, quit."
