Hi, the names Lethal!!! I posted a picture on the Creation board on the Anime Forum of a base sprite I was working on and now all of a sudden the last week my post was removed and I can't post any threads or replies on the WHOLE anime forum with ANY key I log in with!!! Was my IP banned from the forums??? For what reasons i dont know but is this possible?


Thanks ~ LethalX

Reason - Posting an edited version of my work on the forums.

The ban was applied by Pmitch, for the post you've mentioned, as the icon (both in his opinion and a few others) was just a lightly touched up version of some of his work for Dragonball Online II. This is not what we at BYOND Anime would consider reasonable or mutually respectful behaviour, and so you were banned for it.

Hope that clarifies the situation for you.

I wonder if Pmitch would've lessened the ban if it wasn't you know, his work stolen. He's also known for just perma-banning at what he believes to be right without talking to the other staff.
In response to Moonlight Memento
He spoke with Maggeh and myself. And we usually only apply permanent bans in BYOND Anime.
In response to Stephen001
Well, I know for the Art Society he doesn't contact anyone.

Frankly I don't blame him. He's had Cyberlord repeatedly show up and post plagiariazed work in the Art forums.

If LethalExistance wants to try to mend fences and get back in the Anime guild's good graces, there's probably a good chance the moderators there will lift that ban at some point. Perhaps he wasn't aware the work he modified was Pmitch's, but it was still a bad idea to start with someone else's work and pass off a slightly altered version as his own. It is however just the sort of bad idea a lot of newbies have, not realizing that in every community there is a thing called etiquette. Hopefully now he understands that etiquette and will respect it in the future, at which point the ban will be unnecessary.

Cyberlord = everyone apparently. There's no point to a staff at all if one person spearheads every decision and just decides "NO I DO THIS ON MY OWN :<".
In response to Moonlight Memento
But they don't.
In response to DivineTraveller
I've witnessed Pmitch basically decide when to perma-ban someone unjustly on the spot for telling someone who said it was smart to be a pirate (which means you're saying it's dumb not to) that he's basically being a tool without confronting a single other staff member.
In response to Moonlight Memento
By any chance would this person you witnessed be you?
In response to Stephen001
I don't feel obligated to answer this.

Okay.

Okay ? This is outrageous ... whenever ANYBODY edits an LOG icon Pmitch comes running out and banning them cause they HAPPEN to do the same thing he did and he doesnt want to be exposed as a ripper himself after he went on year long smear campaigns against rippers ... Now im banned just SHOWED easy proof and side by side work showing that my base is ALMOST NOTHING LIKE HIS cause i went up and above the normal LOG edit and all i get is a Okay from one of the moderators who GAVE HIS OKAY on banning me??? This is abuse of power at the highest degree and a crying fookin shame too
In response to LethalExistence
Okay. By that I mean it's your word versus his (and the rest of the art society's) on the provenance of his artwork, and I think the art society wins my confidence more.

I'm afraid you are not particularly inspiring me much to reconsider our position here. I am available on pager if you'd like to discuss this further.

It is Pmitch, no surprise, but it is justified here, surprisingly.
In response to Stephen001
How else can i convince you... i showed you side by side the icons he editted from ... its the same pixel height, the same width besides ONE pixel moved in for the arms from the LOG Goku icons and then MY icons that are taller, wider, different chest, arms, legs, and feet in all entirety ... I find this completely bias and what does the art society have to do with the Anime forums???


Does that look like the Dbo2 base ??? like wtf... And to delete two of my posts so no one else can read them and find out for themselves is kinda unjust
In response to LethalExistence
The posts were deleted for their profane content, by another moderator. Personally I agree with their decision, also, and respect the input of the art society on this matter. I would like you to respect our decision and more specifically respect the etiquette of these forums as well, please.
In response to Stephen001
So you think i editted Dbo2 icons? You kno thats some straight bull right ... i didnt edit Pmitchs icons, their all LOG inspired and there is no proof that i did. The only proof i find here is that Pmitch lied to everyone about how he came about making his icons... doing simple overlay edits of LOG sprites.
In response to LethalExistence
Inspired or ripped from LOG? And two, you shouldn't use icons that are from anything.

Do those look like LOG icons??? Their inspired not ripped ...
In response to LethalExistence
Which one is LOG? Which one is yours and which one is DBO2? They all look the same like all bases on BYOND Anime games.
