Description I got banned from reporting because I reported to many art thieves and other such violations of the rules



Wow. So much attention lately! Thanks everyone!

More often than not, they profit from it. See, theirs nothing to gain by simply stealing art, most art thieves offer them as prints, or exchange their use for points. Thus, dA profits from turning their backs on the actual artists of their websites.

I'm surprised the place is still popular with all of dA's problems.

Perhaps they should just call it "Deviant" as the art seems to be in less supply than the deviancy...

Strange how you show up right after he's banned

Either way, I'd ask you to stop saying to my friend ProfessorRad 'Fuck you bitch, it's not stupid, Ass!'

But you do realize that using another account after getting banned is called ban-evasion and you'll get banned again if you are found out.

VacuityMechanica In reply to Lugia365 [2011-01-24 23:58:51 +0000 UTC]

I've actually given up on reporting all together. I only use my other account to manage my Warhammer 40 group

If deviantART wants to condemn itself becoming an unprofessional social network website instead of a social art website, fine, so be it. I'll leave this site laughing when people realize how pathetic it is and leave to the next big art site

Lugia365 In reply to VacuityMechanica [2011-01-25 00:05:25 +0000 UTC]

Well for one thing, I agree with you.

But unlike you, I'm not giving up on this site.

Of you want to go to another site, I know of a site called Storm-artists.net

It's not as popular, but at least it's nicer.

dA felt they had no choice. After all, that art thief might buy a T someday unless someone chases him off...

...somone stealing art from dA users, or dA makin' some money?

VacuityMechanica In reply to DarkRiderDLMC [2010-12-27 03:56:48 +0000 UTC]

Art thieves also sell their stolen works as prints. Doesn't dA take a little of the money from those?

It's probably the dichotomy profit v morality at work. It seriously wouldn't surprise me if it was, either

You sir should be getting a medal, not a ban.

I mean seriously, why even set a limit for reporting a violation? Are they afraid of people falsely reporting others? It shouldn't even be a problem as long as they have proof.

I don't even know anymore, man.
