I normally don’t bother with LOL DORAMA… hell, I don’t even use fanart in my posts, so I could really care less about what’s going on (I know, ignorant dude is ignorant), but there’s just something about hypocritical douchebags that make me tick
The point being, it’s not a matter of law. It’s matter of simply not being a total jerk
Apparently its not a LEGAL issue. Nope. It has to do with not being a total jerk. Wow that’s like telling #gg not to troll. Listen WAH. People are jerks. Fuck, you are a jerk. I mean it’s not like people will suddenly have a revelation:
“OMG IM A JERK. I BETTER STOP BEING A JERK AND CITE ALL THEM FANARTZ SO I AM A LESSERJERK”
However, we have excuses. While you can do all this stuff legally while not-in-Japan、 it requires money. Not everyone has that. I sure don’t. In a way, those things are “necessary” evils (necessary in quotes for obvious reasons.) I feel guilty, yeah.
So… its OK to steal as long as you feel guilty and buy something later on? God help us all. I think I’ll go steal a car right now, as long as I feel guilty and buy the owner some ice cream later it should be fine right? Then I can run around telling people what’s right and what’s wrong! Fuck are the same retard who wrote the script for the stupid “you wouldn’t steal a car” commercial?
Don’t you get it? You’re making people angry! That’s why they made that no-longer-updated OFP site three years ago! … Well, I generally don’t care what people think about me, which is why I often write in a lofty, condescending tone.
Wait so he’s telling us to care what other people think of us, when he doesn’t care what people think of him? And PROTIP: the reason OFP hasn’t been updated in 3 years is probably because the people who made that site don’t care either.
I’m sick of condescending fags trying to tell me what’s right and what’s not.

Let it be known that I lol’d at this. Genuinley funny. I love it when bloggers blog about other bloggers – it’s like a recursive loop of jackassery.
I like how you totally take all my quotes out of context. Way to go, hope your community college education is cool and stuff.
@wah Out of context? I loved your argument on why or how these quotes were taken out of context lol.
I love that commercial!
Also, Next time I take a Saki screencap and post it, I’m going to go to anidb and list all of the animation/art/chara design staff in my post alongside said screencap so that I will be far less of a piece of human trash than I am now. After all, animation is technically art too.
All the fight-picking language aside, this recent discussion has actually been quite helpful to me. I don’t often use fanart myself, but I’d simply never thought about citing it before. The proper argument seems to be: It’s simple courtesy, and a source is often readily available if you use places like Danbooru or Pixiv anyway, so why not?
But, that said, I found your post refreshing and the opposite of samey-same. Cheers.
@2DT Like I said, I don’t use fanart, and if I did I would source. I just don’t run around shoving my ideals down people’s throats.
@ci you would be “human trash” anyways. :D

I’m going to try refrain on taking up my troll side of the persona, so I’ll try as much as I can to be as courteous.
I don’t know if this is bound by the boundaries of piracy, but I do know this is bound by the laws of RESPECT. Coke’s side isn’t in the wrong. Isn’t the reason why the images are circulated in the first place is because the ones making them WANT THEM CIRCULATED? Regardless of piracy tendencies, I don’t see any wrong using any image, especially those you see more than three times in a day.
On WAHs side, well, legality-wise, I don’t think there’s any good ground for the reasons explained.
1. Market-wise, people who make them don’t care if they get ripped or whatnot. As long as they sell everything up to the last piece, whatever fate every pieces comes into is none of their business.
2. Online image-wise, that’s why they’re there: Showcase, free, and of course, artist admiration. That alone is enough legal payment, and they always create more impressive art just from this reason.
3. Others-wise, well, it’s all according to how WAH perceives his take on the “laws” and “legalities” he cited. Because as far as I know, I don’t see anything law or legality. It’s just a matter of material property or whatnot, and in the Internet, I don’t think it would weigh as much.
