Oh, here we go again.
Some unscrupulous individuals start selling other peoples' artwork on T-shirts. Artists are, rightfully, pissed.

People look at DeviantArt's ToS and see the same poorly worded clause that caused such humongous kerfluffles with Geocities and CafePress in days past. Someone makes a huge post about it without doing her homework.

More wank ensues.

And then some DA personage gets into it, taking it upon himself to reply to every post in the fray, claims that offering clarifications of the Legalese in the ToS to prevent drama like this would defeat the purpose of the ToS (which, sadly, I must admit to bitchslapping him on), bitches because someone doesn't use a DeviantArt-approved abbreviation for DeviantArt, and then he bitches because he's tired of saying the same thing over and over.

Not that people on the other side of the wank are all sweetness and light...

TEH ARTESTS DESREVE TEH MONIE FROM TEH ART U DEFILED

Settle down there, Beavis.

And finally, the original poster disables comments on the original post, screams at everyone to leave her alone, and we find out that this whole kerfluffle was over a 15-year-old girl's fuckup.
