DeviantArt issues?

While most blatant reposts of your work will be taken down without worry,alterations, edits, traces, and references are becoming regarded as acceptable by DA.

I have been hearing an alarming amount of users complain about inconsiderate or lazy admins, as well as reports of infringing work not being properly dealt with. It’s starting to become the norm to see an artist’s work blatantly traced or altered without any consequence to the art thief. Apparently that copyright policy is just for show - and since the TOS says DA can’t be held responsible for damages (IE copyright infringement), you can’t force them legally to uphold their policy, even if you’re a paying customer."

Wow. That's kind of disappointing....

Actually that's really disappointing to be honest...
