Um, okay other people did **** also. But you word for word copied from another site. Putting up a bunch of other examples does not make it right. Taking an image and working it into your logo, modifying it, and changing it is not nearly as bad as taking another person’s ideas word for word and pbuming it off as your own.

I believe I said right there, I know it’s no more valid or right. At this point I’m entirely beyond caring whether the forum gets edited, voided, deleted, whatever. Just saying the problem’s a little more endemic than that’s going to solve. I’m can see I’m in the wrong here, but I don’t see that anyone running the show can claim the moral high ground given the lack of action against equally ‘wrong’ things.

As for “working it into your logo, modifying it, and changing it”, the examples posted weren’t edited at all beyond a simple crop – similar enough for an automated process to see that they’re the same. They’re just as direct a copy as taking a funny idea about Earth-based destruction and submitting it as a forum, if not more direct.
