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

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

[-] Aneb@lemmy.world 9 points 2 days ago

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

[-] Knoxvomica@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 day ago

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

[-] TheFrirish@tarte.nuage-libre.fr 78 points 2 days ago

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 18 points 2 days 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.

Edit: retracted didn't consider automod

[-] TheFrirish@tarte.nuage-libre.fr 11 points 2 days 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 2 days ago

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.

Fair enough. Moderating is hard since you always have to have an eye on the community. But I have seen multiple people offer to help moderate this community.

[-] starman2112@sh.itjust.works 10 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

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

[-] TheFrirish@tarte.nuage-libre.fr 5 points 2 days ago

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

[-] glitchdx@lemmy.world 34 points 2 days ago

Oi, quit removing artist signatures.

[-] Feyd@programming.dev 158 points 2 days ago

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

[-] caurvo 58 points 2 days ago

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

[-] kernelle@lemmy.dbzer0.com 68 points 2 days ago

Credit = advertising? What a freebooting loser

[-] wonderingwanderer@sopuli.xyz 30 points 2 days ago

"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."

[-] kernelle@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 2 days ago

This person woud crop a signature out of a Picasso

[-] Martineski@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 2 days ago

And generate a whole new image in the process.

[-] Martineski@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 2 days ago

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

[-] shawn1122@sh.itjust.works 10 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days 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.

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!

Stop editing other people's comics.

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

[-] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 10 points 2 days ago

Stop editing other people’s comics.

[-] Wolf314159@startrek.website 49 points 2 days ago

Hey Beep, forget to switch accounts?

[-] wonderingwanderer@sopuli.xyz 13 points 2 days ago

I'm not even surprised that it's him. I've had weevil tagged as a shill for a while now...

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

[-] lemmydividebyzero@reddthat.com 17 points 2 days ago

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 2 days ago

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

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

[-] Godort@lemmy.ca 52 points 2 days ago

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

[-] FishFace@piefed.social 4 points 2 days 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 2 days 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.

[-] GreenBeanMachine@lemmy.world 10 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

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

[-] Smoogs@lemmy.world 6 points 2 days ago

"5d chess"

More like 5d cheese.

[-] SnarkoPolo@lemmy.world 6 points 2 days ago

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

Oh hey check that out this artist has a username

[-] StealthLizardDrop@piefed.social 10 points 2 days ago

Thank you kind stranger

[-] ClownStatue@piefed.social 7 points 2 days 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.
[-] JuliaSuraez@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

Problem solved after creating the problem is wild 💀
