So, I wanted to play the Sailor Moon Dress Up game today, made by drachearannak on deviantart, only to discover he had deactivated his account. I poked around and found out what had happened (basically, he was accused of tracing and not given proper credit).

I'm really sad he left, 'cause I really enjoyed his Sailor Moon stuff. In my opinion, tracing is okay when it's using the original image as a reference. I do it all the time (for class), and I make the image my own, which I believe he did. He still has color it, add textures and stuff. A lot of hard work goes into it still.

Ugh. Why do haters have to hate so much? Don't these people reporting tracings have anything better to do? Seriously. Just report it to the mods if you think it's a problem and don't go trolling around. I never knew of this dark side of DA till today.

I'm posting this here, because I believe some of you were fans of his. I just kinda want to what you thought about this.

WHAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHAAAAAAAAAAT!!!!!!!!!

*leaves dA*

WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT!!!!!!!!!!

D:<<<<<<<<<<<< WTF. WTF. WTF! I can never reach my 50 sailor goal now! ; A ; NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

Edit: And not all his stuff was tracing. Did he leave? Or did dA discontinue his account? Cuz if they did that's complete bullshit and I'm serious I will just use a different art site to post my things on. D:< dA is really starting to piss me off.

No, he left. I guess he was tired of the drama. I hope he comes back.

Either he left or was hacked into and shut down... > sad He posted about the drama just a few days ago and it sounded like he was upset, but not enough to ragequit. > sad He better come back. I'll miss him too much! ; n ;

@Anon - Thanks! I was hoping it posted somewhere else besides DA.

I don't read every journal from my watchlist, so I missed what he had to say about this. Ugh. I love all the Sailors he did! I'm going to miss them.

Oh ok. At least that is posted somewhere. ^ o ^ Phew.

But still. D:< I want him back on dA! I bet he got hacked or something... I just don't take him for the leaving type. :/

Wow... He really did leave. *pouts and emos*

yeah Kira told me about this. Trolls kept harassing him about tracing and he rarely traced. He mainly used portions of body parts. a hand here, a foot there to complete a picture. that's bullshit man! and DA wasn't even trying to help him out as he reported stuff. DA has been ******** up a lot lately.
