I think the thing I'd like to point out here, is
there's a LOT of things I COULD do, but don't.
I COULD hack websites beyond passive creative
html surfing, but I don't, and only do passive
html when I have permission (or get challenged to
find something on a friend's site, which I
consider permission) and I could use that stuff,
at least with peoples' websites around here, to
do just about every single thing that pisses off
the cel community here from making repros and
selling them as the real thing to making a
fake 'look what I have' gallery.
I mean come on, the reason I started posting on
this forum was because I was getting some
questionable cel reproduction commissions and I
wanted to know if there was a certain unofficial
decorum I should observe (there was, and I have
since honored all the concerns and suggestions
made to me). I've even tried to keep up to date
with what people keep in their galleries so I can
double-check if someone sends me a cel scan, and
I ask 'did you get permission' that I can send an
email to the person on the forum just in case.
Being courteous just saves you a lot of anguish
in the long run. Good karma too. |
