Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Limit of two posts per person per day.
- Bots aren't allowed.
- Banned users will have their posts removed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

You know what explicitly makes you a humongously vile and despicable jackass? Not respecting artists' own wishes in regard to how you treat their art. You apparently, according to your not-in-any-way-trustworthy words, follow the artist's output on the web. But you explicitly declare that the artist doesn't have a say in how their art is distributed, overriding that with your own enormously asshole-ly, obnoxious, inconsiderate and contemptible attitude toward their effort, which latter you consume as a worthless leech upon their inestimable generosity, with you being a vermin parasite upon their creative output that you could never dream of achieving even if you lived a thousand years. Apparently it bugs you so much that you're completely devoid of any remote hint of creativity, that you're incredibly eager to steal other people's artwork and pronounce it everyone's and no one's achievement, such that you can claim it for yourself just for the brief second when it's posted. I can only vaguely imagine the microscopic penis that you have to grasp around for, every morning, that could make you so irreparably angry upon the world that you proclaimed war on people who never had any hint of your very existence before your childish behavior in this community.
