Why did you slice the artist's name off the bottom? That's fucked up

[–] caurvo@lemmy.blahaj.zone 64 points 1 week ago (2 children)

This user has a vendetta against ads, which to them includes artist signatures / websites / social handles.

Credit = advertising? What a freebooting loser

[–] wonderingwanderer@sopuli.xyz 35 points 1 week ago (2 children)

"What do you mean plagiarism?!? Why did you give me 0% on my essay, professor"

"You didn't cite a single source! You didn't even include a references page."

"I just didn't want to give those authors free advertising."

This person woud crop a signature out of a Picasso

[–] Martineski@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 1 week ago

And generate a whole new image in the process.

[–] Martineski@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 1 week ago

It really does feel like something that they'd do.

[–] shawn1122@sh.itjust.works 10 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

I van understand if it's Chevron or Lockheed Martin or even Chick Fil A for that matter but an indie art feveloped? Taking away their credit. Absurd behaviour.

Stop editing other people's comics.

And don't forget to try the Big Arch, the new burger from McDonald's.

Fuck off Beep seriously and the mods should be ashamed now. How is this guy not banned? The guy keeps cropping the artists name and is continuously above the posting limit.

Shame on the moderation.

[–] Illogicalbit@lemmy.world 20 points 1 week ago

Even looks like someone blurred the bit at the bottom that did have the artist details. Cropping is lazy but this was on a different level.

The moderation here is nonexistent. Lawrence needs to get another user involved with moderating if he doesn't have the time

I mean that's understandable. Moderating is a pain but again this is so easy in this case.

[–] BurgerBaron@piefed.social 11 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (2 children)

Edit: retracted didn't consider automod

[–] TheFrirish@tarte.nuage-libre.fr 12 points 1 week ago

I mean this is such a clear case though. Multiple rules have been broken and rebroken. I have feeling my comment has more chances of being deleted than his posts.

[–] Thunderbird4@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

The mod’s last comment from a month ago is discussing an automod bot. It’s possible that they’re completely AWOL and the deleted comments you’re seeing are from the bot. Being the sole mod of a community and abandoning it to a bot instead of looking for new human mods is still shit list worthy, though.

Going to down vote your posts every time you crop a signature.

[–] Aneb@lemmy.world 9 points 1 week ago (1 children)

The full image is in the og Reddit post so it is something the op did on purpose

[–] Knoxvomica@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 week ago

I think most folks have then tagged as doing this at this point

[–] glitchdx@lemmy.world 34 points 1 week ago

Oi, quit removing artist signatures.

[–] PolarKraken@lemmy.dbzer0.com 27 points 1 week ago (3 children)

Adding to the chorus - you're a real piece of shit for taking an artist's work, REMOVING something the artist finds important, and then pretending like you've got some moral high ground here.

Go fuck yourself!

Don't care about Hormuz. It's just a distraction from the fact that trump rapes kids.

[–] Godort@lemmy.ca 54 points 1 week ago (1 children)

You can care about more than one thing. I believe in you.

[–] FishFace@piefed.social 4 points 1 week ago

And actually, dropping bombs on schools full of children is a worse crime than raping children. Fucking the world economy for billions of people, which will indirectly kill even more children, is arguably even worse than that.

[–] JayDee@lemmy.sdf.org 12 points 1 week ago

A man is called a pedophile. Said man then shoots someone in his near visibility. He has not distracted you from him being a pedophile, he's just now a pedophile and an active shooter.

We should care about both these issues. Trump is a pedophile and a close friend of epsein. He is also wasting human life for a distraction and should be shamed for that as well.

[–] night_petal@piefed.social 18 points 1 week ago

Fuck you for cropping out artist attributions. You rightly deserve to be banned from posting here.

[–] lemmydividebyzero@reddthat.com 16 points 1 week ago (1 children)

He did not notify Europe about the war, then asked the Europeans to help him open the strait, then told he doesn't need the help to open it, then decided to not open it at all and now, he threatens to leave NATO because Europe did not help.

Can we please go back to the good old times when people in power had a brain and used it?

[–] DrDickHandler@lemmy.world 8 points 1 week ago (1 children)

The good times are long gone. You are looking at decades of fascism, the golden age of American stupidity.

I don't see it, so a double joke on you

[–] StealthLizardDrop@piefed.social 9 points 1 week ago (1 children)
[–] starman2112@sh.itjust.works 35 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

Oh hey check that out this artist has a username

[–] StealthLizardDrop@piefed.social 10 points 1 week ago

Thank you kind stranger

[–] RedAggroBest@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago

How are they not banned? Cropping artists signature should be counted as art theft.

[–] ClownStatue@piefed.social 7 points 1 week ago

The Trump playbook:

  1. Recklessly barrel into a situation he doesn’t understand.
  2. Bumble around like a pack of monkeys trying to fuck a doorknob and make things worse.
  3. Wait for someone else to put things back to the way they were (or thereabouts), and declare victory.
[–] SnarkoPolo@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago (5 children)

He said he's going to abolish Medicare. And of course, the media ignores it.

"5d chess"

More like 5d cheese.

[–] Luisp@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 1 week ago

thank israel

[–] TaeKwonDoh@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

And to make bank on whatever it is that he and his partners in crime are hoping to achieve.

I'd say "friends", but he's never had any.

[–] JuliaSuraez@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

Problem solved after creating the problem is wild 💀
