ℹ️ Those eyes have been haunting me for weeks, drifting just beyond the edge of focus, bright as molten glass and spinning with colors the forest should not know. In daylight, the hues scatter like rainbows ripped apart and stitched back together, refusing to settle into a single shade. In darkness, the glow sharpens, not dimming, not softening, becoming something older, something shaped long before the first paths were carved through these trees. Their stare pierces the distance, patient and unblinking, as if waiting for a mistake only they can see coming. Each night the forest reacts first. The air thickens. The leaves hold still. Roots hum faintly beneath the soil. When the eyes appear, their light stains everything it touches: moss turns iridescent, bark shivers under the shifting spectrum, shadows stretch in unnatural directions. Magic lingers here, forgotten spells woven by hands that are now dust. And yet the eyes move through it with ease, pushing aside the remnants of those ancient wards like cobweb strands. Rainbow sparks drift from their edges, glowing like embers of an ancient fire refusing to die. Tonight they emerge closer, no longer content with the treeline. Their brilliance reflects in my breath as it fogs the chilled air. Colors sweep across my skin in thin ribbons, mapping me as though searching for something buried under my ribs. I step backward, and the forest shifts behind me, paths rearranging, branches curling inward, the woods subtly closing. When the eyes finally lock onto mine, the world compresses into a single pulse of color. Demanding. Unforgettable. And somewhere deep in the earth beneath us, something answers.

</li></ol><h2 id="why-i-created-my-own-access-control">Why I Created My Own Access Control</h2>I have been a creator on Civitai since December 2022. My goal has always been to help make model training, design, and development a sustainable, professional activity, not only for myself, but for other creators too. Supporting people who want to create models professionally is good for users, for creators, for the entire community, including Civitai itself.
Civitai has shared some of this vision and has tried to create ways to support creators. Unfortunately, their current Creators Program has serious problems:
<ul><li>Civitai was deplatformed by payment processors and operates at a loss.
</li><li>The current compensation model pays creators mainly for model usage in the generator.
</li><li>Early Access limits paid access to only 15 days, after which models must be free.
</li><li>Buzz extraction value has dropped to ~45% of its original worth, making withdrawals basically a 55% fee.
</li><li>Bugs and creator feedback are ignored for months, and several team members who used to listen have left.
</li></ul>I believe this system is unfair, harmful, and exploitative. Creators should be able to:
<ul><li>Sell models without arbitrary time limits.
</li><li>Pay a fair platform fee of 15% or less.
</li></ul>Civitai briefly tested a much better system called Clubs in early 2024, which worked well for creators, but it was canceled after backlash from a loud minority that opposed fair creator compensation. I have long hoped Civitai would fix these issues, as I’ve suggested in my articles:

</li><li><a target="_blank" rel="ugc" href="https://civarchive.com/articles/11274/new-creators-program-issues-and-solutions">New Creators Program: Issues and Solutions</a>
</li></ul>But nothing has changed. Bugs remain unresolved, feedback is ignored, and I’ve lost optimism about Civitai’s willingness to improve.
That’s why I’ve decided to experiment with my own alternative access control system, a fairer way to share models with users who value my work.
