Copyright infringement can hoover my nuts, but theft I do actually care about, and conflating the two is something that only people who care about copyright infringement want you to do.

I'll still call you a dork, though. There's no safety from that.

More to the point, arguably stuff like AVs and the like could be called free advertising for the IP creator, if folks are willing to point them in their direction.

Technically infringement, but it actually helps the owner.

Crimes for thee, but not for me!

A huge lol at a bunch of people who gluttonously mass consume products by Hasbro of all companies trying to take the high road on ethical consumption of products.

Ah yes, compensating the artist for their product in 'exposure'. Something that has never been used to justify exploiting creatives historically.

Someone might commission an artist from that, there is zero chance of someone commissioning an artist from an AI output.

I'm not patronizing you at all. I don't think you're a luddite, I think you're self-interested. About 15 years ago the Internet granted a whole bunch of artists a revenue stream and now it's going to pair it down for a lot of them just as quickly. It does, in fact, suck.

I think you overestimate the bubble, and underestimate the chances of the law and countertraining and folks just loving hating this crap kicking these folk's poo poo in.

More seriously, effort does not mean quality and can often be used to waste your time.

Yeah, this isn't the industry bullshit thread where being enraged at the latest idiocy or horror is a normal reaction, show some respect for the dead.

There's no shortage of actual shitbags in this sector where gravedancing is appropriate, and this isn't one!

I don't have the slightest clue where this stuff about hostility comes from; frankly, it's making a mountain out of a molehill that could be solved with anything from a 7 to a 30 and be done with.

Should Toshimo be probed or even banned for going that hard in the paint? Yes and either have its merits I think nobody would fault anyone for either. I haven't look at what Toshimo has said recently, but I assume even they would eventually agree to as much.

Should Toshimo get a threadban? No. We are talking about a poster, among many, who have posted for more than a decade. Toshimo has been probed like twice a year for 12 years of posting. This isn't prolific or even noteworthy.

Dealing with an obvious post more quickly is way preferable to weaponizing petty posting grudges. The thread has been a pleasant place where people can disagree without slap fighting for a while. Why does that need some big overhaul?

Not an emptyquote, what the hell is this nonsense we're seeing here? This is a problem solvable by a 7 to 30 day probe, what in tarnation is this nonsense about carpet bombing probes, or other inane bs?

Then threadban him from magic, because he's generally either chill or appropriate elsewhere if it's not something solvable by a week to month off.

A big problem with documenting every mod decision publicly is you would have to document every report, and that way madness lies :v:

Not least because reports need to stay anon so that the occasional followings of superstars that get reported and eat a probe don't cause problems, no matter how stupid they are.
