Stuff I've Drawn #6

Let me explain something

So a new art thief has been found, stealing art belonging to Wildheart911.

^ Does anyone else find it weird that they've been on Wattpad for two years, only to start suddenly stealing art?

NOW

before you go and yell at them, I need to explain something.

Stop commenting to this person that they're a loser, and horrible, and should die because of what they're doing.
Because saying those things is just wrong.

Just report the account.
Simple.

You don't have to be a rude know-it-all who harasses an art thief, an art thief who yes, could be doing it to hurt someone, or maybe they just wanted to feel accomplished because they liked someone else's art better than theirs.

SO STOP being a jerk. Don't drop yourself down to the art thief's level.

Because if you tell them how bad they are, one, you're giving them the attention they want, and two, it makes you even worse than them.
Do you honestly think it's okay to yell at someone the way some of the comments have been. Seriously. Go look at some of the comments on that art book.
It's disgusting.

Not only that but it doesn't accomplish anything! They can just block you and move on with what they're doing.

I'm not supporting the art thief.
No, because they definitely haven't done anything correct. They should be reported and stopped, but don't make them feel worse than they already might!

I tried to comment and say that they should delete that book and start over, start posting original art, apologize, something, anything. They haven't responded.

So yeah, I reported the account.

At least I didn't promote hate.

I tried to do what was right.

Now some of the comments aren't that bad. A lot of them are just people telling this person to stop.

But guys, I don't think you understand this. If you leave a mean comment, it might not seem like much to you, but you aren't the only one doing it! Those comments pile and add up into this horrible thing.

The art thief hurts one person, and is then attacked by a dozen more.
Nothing about that is fair.

AGAIN.
IM NOT SUPPORTING THE ART THEIF.
EVERYTHING THEY'VE DONE UP TO THIS POINT IS BAD.
But that doesn't qualify them to get so much attention. Good or bad.

What I'm saying is: Please go report the art thief.
And you can comment there if you want, whatever. But if you comment, please, please don't say anything unless you can do it in a way that won't utterly degrade them as a human being.

Thank you.

The art community here is wonderful and supportive, I'd hate to see it become something where art thieves are common and people are being rude and sending attention to the thieves who don't deserve it. Don't let this happen. You guys are better than that. C'mon.
