the DA art theft dissapointment !UPDATE

Fri Mar 27, 2009, 9:53 AM
EDIT EDIT: five minutes after the first edit all pics were deleted from the gallery, thank you all so much for helping me carry the banhammer XD

if you happen to have some strength left, please help out the other artists as well, like :iconmatsu-sensei: i know i will.

thanks everyone, i think we got the message through ;)

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
EDIT: a thnx goes to everyone for the support, here's an update on the whole subject:

got a note from DA today (funnily enough right after this journal XD ) and replied on one of the reports i made on one of my pics. they have taken it down immediately, unfortunately really just that one. now that i know they've listened and taken action i still have to wonder if i now have to report every single one. for now ive reported another with the link to the directory and a request to take it all down at once. but so far so good!

as for the culprit; still no contact made or replies to anyone. however i did found out he does take sort of credit for the stuff that is in the gallery: [link] meaning he did this intentionally.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A little while ago i was informed about a certain event going on behind my back. this brought me to a specific person:

:icontails11121212:

and to one of his pages in his scrapbook: [link]

if you clicked the link you might've noticed a little thing... the main part of that gallery belongs to none other than yours truly!
not only that, it seems he found it nice to put up pics from other well respected artists on DA, :iconmatsu-sensei: for instance. both of us and more kindly requested to have the pics taken down and all wouldve been well...

BUT IS IT!!!???

after a while of waiting for a response I got the hunch that he didnt really care for the fact he put up pics of other people, as every form of contacting so far hasnt been made during the times he was online.

thankfully a lot of people know it isnt his work and this is just taken from others... and it might just be all a misunderstanding. im not enraged or very angry about all this, just a tad annoyed the guy isnt responding and another thing...

because that isnt really my biggest dissapointment. Im more sad about the fact that DA hasnt took action yet or even considered responding to me. I myself have reported some of my drawings, and one of my friends even reported the whole lot... and still no pics have been taken down nor is the guy banned from DA for ART THEFT, cause thats what it simply is! you might even say DA isnt interested in this since the content stolen is dirty expansion work. and if that would be the case, im wondering what the hell DA is thinking...

so if you wanna help, go out there and report those pics that have been made by all those other artists that put effort into it. for what i care you can even give him a piece of your mind if you'd want. but lets just make DA sure that fetish art can also be taken as seriously as all the others.

thanks in advance you guys, take care
