Holy shit dude, did you ram a fork into your hindbrain or what caused this gaping memory hole?

What about, I don't know, the massive art theft perpetrated on our new overlords' site and the legal hurdles they threw into the artists' way to remove them? It's time to stay away from posting for a while, you're digging your grave deeper with each sentence.

You got a fucking brain tumor, wiseass? The so-called "massive art theft" was happening well before the sale and has absolutely nothing to do with it. Keep it up, you're not getting any smarter.

Woah, watch out Pheagle, someone's jockeying for your position as main hot-air producer!

Hold it right there, copycat, I came up with the neuroanatomy angle first; that's just that with minor alterations.

Why, of course! That IMVU created a system vulnerable to selling stolen art and allowed the sale of stolen art, which cut into the original artists' profits, is perfectly a-okay as long as they were ignorant of it! And the fact Piche told everyone you needed to file a DMCA to take your stolen art down, whether or not it's actually true, is a negligible detail.

You're one smart, smart cookie. Good show.

No, he's just a plain old idiot. Me, on the other hand, I'm someone you disagree with, which you have a problem with.

lol you don't own the neuroanatomy angle, at least I was blunt about it.

I'm not saying what IMVU's users are doing is okay, and IMVU doesn't have a very preferable way of handling it either, but you're still missing the point. The sale did not somehow make IMVU's users suddenly start stealing art from FA; they were doing that WELL BEFORE it.

Let me be perfectly clear when I say I think IMVU should address this issue with a firm hand and start banning people who are stealing art. They ought to revamp the system to make it easier to search, but I think that's wishful thinking on my part.

Being ignorant about art theft doesn't make it okay, but it does make it an unknown. The internet is a huge place, Gryphoneer. Who else is stealing artwork from FA? Who knows? I certainly don't, and they're probably going to remain hidden unless they buy up another furry art site.

This, fucking this. This is a proof of how much of an ignorant you are. Stop wasting our time.

Wow. Surprised you took that seriously.

Let's use our common sense here. This whole thread has been about Dragoneer & Art-Theft (The basis of it was). I hear that he has a bad rep and I can hear why, but when I ask "Who's Dragoneer?" it's because I don't know exactly who he is and I wasn't here long enough to know.

Sure, a level of ignorance is there, but how the fuck am I supposed to know any of this?

Now I'll extend a friendly hand of "right back at ya".

You might want to stop now Sliqq usually humor does'nt fit well in serious discussions such as this.

Ring-a-ding-ding, pal.
Also, what's with the grey font?

For the record, I always use this colour and this size font. I am not hiding anything nor am I afraid to say what I have to say.

Also what's with your baseless defending of the actions taken? Are you that afraid to admit that things may not turn out peachy? I know IMVU. Texture and art theft runs absolutely rampant there, and rarely receives the attention it deserves, if ever. They have imposed "theft reducing" rules that do nothing but hobble the honest developers, and do not listen to any protest against such unnecessary, non-useful measures. They continually step on the honest developers for the sake of "security", whilst the theft continues to go on as much as ever; meanwhile, the creators suffer. And the fact remains that they do not care.
They very recently screwed over their entire developer base, unapologetically, and lauded the change as a good thing. I was there. Where were you?

Anyway temperatures seem to be running a little
hot around here and I prefer to be in a space where cooler heads and calm words prevail. Ta-ta.

You have massively spammed this thread with your stupid bullshit since you first came here, we are all discussing something serious and you just appear posting irrelevant useless shit without knowing two things about what is going on.

I told this in another post, and I will write it again: TAKE ALL YOUR INMATURITY AND GO AWAY, UNDERAGE.

Gotcha bro. You won't have to see my face here(in this thread) again. But I will be checking back to see if anyone answered my question or to see the progress made. I can see that someone really doesn't want me here, because I'm not as serious as I "should" be. That's something that's truly unrealistic; that I have to conform to their liking. We might as well be all the same with nothing any different, doing what our neighbor is doing, & all liking that some color & tone of grey.

Immaturity is only seen by a bigot. Who's you to tell me what's mature or not? You can shove a dictionary in my face all day but what does that prove? That you can look for a word? Not that you understand that "maturity" is a subjective term? Only a person who views themself as mature will call somebody else immature (unless you're of pure heart & I can for sure tell that you're on the same playing field as me). Quit the crap about maturity, it just makes you sound like someone who lost their itty bitty fuse and tried to make a big deal out of the little spark that came flying out.

But if you like to fight on those terms, age doesn't mean jack shit. Can you tell me what I like & what I want to do based on my age? Am I into pop culture or "I don't care about school"? Better yet, am I as foolish as you expect me to be? Do you really think you know me, based off the tiny bit of information that you have received? (If you can, you must be Sherlock Holmes. But he's only fictional, a figment of your imagination). I'd hate to be described as something as discrete as a number. I was never born into a list of numbers that can be counted. I exist in a world of infinite possibility. The chances of you being right about anything about me is 1 out of infinity, and no equation or psychiatry book can tell you otherwise. Everyone here is an individual and is allowed to have their own views on a subject with or without critique of their words.

Do you know what's worse? When I requested information, wittingly or seriously, and not getting any information from it. Instead, I receive malice for the bad aftertaste in your mouth and your own ideas of what is mature & not mature. If you believe someone is lacking in information, you give them more. You don't put yourself on a higher pedestal by withholding information. It's like how this thread is at times, talking a lot but not actually doing
anything productive or meaningful. You can't get angry at your kids if they don't know any better, you have to teach them what they're doing wrong so they don't end up making those mistakes again. Or to put it in another way: How could the teacher expect his/her students to pass if he/she hasn't taught anything. It's the same issue in a different scenario.

I never once decided to blow hot air, I only give an idea of what you're doing whether you notice it, agree or disagree with it or not. Again, I speak as an outsider looking in, and you could never change that fact.

*I* was not using IMVU and I don't plan to in the future. Also, your font color is not a good choice to read over a white background.

I am locking this thread due to pretty blatant necro.
