What happened?

They banned my fellow Polaks, even though it wasn't in the rules. Also they took away my admin for a very hypocritical reason now that I look back on it, too. It's also just a waste of my time because people I actually need to talk to aren't on the CN discord.

Fellow Polaks? Do they hate whatever a Polak is?

Polish people. One was an artist who is helping me, the other is a guy who I play CS:GO with, so I was basically just bringing a few friends in, and they banned them, and they also previously took away my admin, and I also tend to be the butt of most of the jokes there.

Because I tried implementing a rule that an artist should always be linked. People generally just take other people's art on the Discord, and it tends to hurt artists more than it assists them. Pacificora can tell you the same thing.

It's more up to, like, around twenty now, but it's still not really much.

It hurts any artist to know that their art has been taken, and no one knows who it is done by, because it gives them less potential exposure and their work is not appreciated. I think if you did art too, you may feel the same way.

Numbers don't matter, it's still the thought that someone's art can be taken, and they wont be credited for it. We still don't even know who made the image we use for the front of the OOC, which I think is a very bad practice by Atrilan. Luckily, my art generally doesn't attract reposters and the like due to the nature of it and its context, however it has happened and it hurts when it does.

We were really just sticking captions on it :P

I could provide an example, if you want.

We're not reposting though. It's, like twenty people. It's not like were doing this for any gain, it's just for a laugh, and a tiny one at that.

Taking it, making a meme out of it and not linking the artist. It could be seen as just a personal pet peeve of mine, but if you ask any artist, especially ones who draw for their income, they will tell you reposting without crediting is not OK. It also goes against many sites rules, since even though an artist may not make money from a picture, it is still their personal belongings, and someone taking that and not giving credit to the appropriate artist can hurt one's motivation to do art with their things being so easily taken. A watermark can only do so much.

A repost is a repost. Numbers do not matter. I can also bring up the fact of general favouritism, but I won't dig in to that one. I will be making my own IW Discord, one which will be properly administered and have very clear rules on what is acceptable and what is not, because on multiple occasions, I have seen even Garuda and Axalis breaking their own rules they have set.

No ones going to join that Discord if an official one is already up. What did they do?

We could bring up genuine disrespectfulness and slander of character, I guess?

There is a large difference between saying "ur mum gay" and actively going out of one's way to aggressively 'correct' someone.
