There’s a user running rampant with lack of artist attribution in the community. Frankly this is someone who should be banned and there should be a rule of no posts without attribution. I a world of AI stripping artists off f their work is an even bigger blow and is pure scummery.
please follow https://lemmy.world/post/45059459 for this topic. we’re currently waiting to see if we get a response from the current mod, otherwise we’ll appoint one or more new mods.
That post is nearly a week old, can we expect some movement on this soon?
I haven’t heard back from them yet, I wanted to wait a week from my original comment, especially considering the easter holidays. i’ll get back to it later today after work.
Just chiming in here as a lurker who’s been watching everything unfold. It seems the original moderator has already been replaced by the automod. (No idea if that complicates anything, just wanted to point it out). Also not the same user from the other thread that volunteered either.
Thank you for looking into things.
looks like a member of our team missed these threads, i’ll sort that out later today
All good! Thank you again for everything you all do!
Edit: no longer true, active mod is active now
Thanks! Apologies for opening a duplicate issue / post.
I really want to know why anyone is resorting to AI of all things to accomplish this rather than just, like, MS Paint. Other than specifically as some manner of specialty trolling.
Anyway, I’m in agreement with all of the above.
It is specifically as some manner of specialty trolling. I’ve seen the guy’s comments. He does it because people hate it and because there is no one around to ban him about it.
