How about we don’t do this!
Using bases is okay! If they’re f2u (free to use). But stealing the entire adopt? Nope! No way! Especially when people PAID to buy those adopts so they could draw them and/or have them as a character (top right is an example. You can see the poster wrote over how much the adopt was originally). This is a form of stealing, okay? You are stealing others adopts to regive to others for their use, when it’s not theirs in the first place! It is the OPs/buyers/receivers adopt, and you have no right to take that away and give it up to others. If you want to do adopts, just make your own, or use a f2u base and color in the colors!
