In all my years of being on here, I have had my fair share of my art and character being stolen and it was easy to get the content remove, if you have prove that you drew said art but now all of a sudden, I cannot even report a copyright claim on stolen art here even with proof!


A DMCA Take Down is built in to allow the original user to report their work being stolen with proof and then the site takes it down, telling the other user that the content they've posted is copyrighted and the original artist doesn't want their work to be used. And for some reason, they also put in a "counter-claim" where the user that stolen the work can claim the work they've stolen was a mistake and can get it re-poated but they don't even get question or told to show prove. They just get allowed to repost! Which I think is wrong and unprofessional on the admins part.


I really loved this site for it's community and support but they've gone down hill that much that they support thieves and no matter what you can do, your art will never be removed.


I hope the user that stolen my work sees from my point of view that they are putting me in a financial and emotional state and don't even know what damage they are doing to me.


Thank you all for your support throughout the years and even in recent events with my terminal illness.


Until next time, Even in death, may you be triumphant!
