If they know they stoled and know that it was against the rules then who really gives a damn if they have hurt feelings or not. They are thieves and there's almost noting dirtier than stealing.

However I agree that they shouldn't be flamed at all. They should be told nicely that they stoled it and will be reported for it. There are a few people out there that don't know what they do is stealing and will take it down if they are told.

The thief is pinpointed so that they will get kicked off the site sooner and more people will report them and because they indeed need to get stigmatized as a thief. It's like if you steal from wal-mart or another store like that, you will most likely be made to stand outside with a sigh saying that you shoplifted from there. -That's one of the punishments for shoplifting around here.

Most of the people posted upon people's journals are multiple art thieves and indeed knows that they are stealing and deserve to be known as such. Its a warning to other artist to keep away from the person as well.

I have a strong feeling on that since I've gotten poems, fanfics, and stories stolen before.

It's not how good a piece is that determines whether it's good or not; it's the heart and passion that one puts into it. I would rather see art that's not so good but full of heart than a piece that is amazing but was considered a burden for the creator.

I agree with that.

With my journal? Thanks!!

Flame wars are bad aren't they?

Yes I agree with stealing being nasty and dirty.

Flames aren't nice at all wether it be a review/comment or someone just saying Theif Theif and not really saying anything nice or explaining why they should take it down.

True...really you have to stand in front of the shop with a sign that seems...light? I don't know any shoplifting punishments in Australia

That is a good way to tell I'm not good at telling views am I? I didn't think of it that way

People stole your art!

I agree with your opinion all in all and it is a great one! Thankyou for your insightful comment!!

Oh, they get more than standing in front of a store. They usually get fined a pretty penny and jail time if the thing stolen goes above a certain price limit.

Yes, someone tried to pass my royai fiction off as their own. It was pathetic because they tried to pass off my most popular fiction as theirs and people knew better. They were corporative in taking it down though.

Your welcome. I like discussions where I can give opinions.
