I'M THE GODDAMN ADMIN
Direct from the pages of wank report:
"Sheezyart's (http://sheezyart.com) admins troll members who use Adblock by forcing a flashing red and yellow background and music to appear for anyone who uses Adblock on their site."

"Comments with a star are Sheezyart staff/admins, who have been the epitome of class throughout...

The flashing background and music have since been removed and replaced with a text banner, but not before someone actually had a seizure from it."

720+ comments, including an appearance on page two by the Goddamn Batman. Yes, that one.

Wow that is an absolutely spectacular fail. Like, I never want anything to do with these admins, ever, for anything, because good lord. Mostly I'm latching on to "On the list of things wrong with your website, this is what you choose to 'fix'?" comments.

Dear Zorro and Robin: thank you for not being these guys.

Some organizations in the real world (I'm thinking the Mob et al; feel free to substitute the nation of your choice) can get away with providing threats, coercion and abuse in lieu of actual services.

An art site on the internet? Um, no.

Oh, sheezy. Somehow this doesn't really surprise me.

I like the replies to the comment at the bottom of the third page. The original spawns the suggestion of an alternate art site; the remaining replies consist of people basically tripping over each other to get out the door.

I love all the replies to the effect of 'I've just discovered AdBlock/NoScript thanks to this, how did I manage without them? Thanks guys!'

Talk about shooting yourself in the foot.

So the exodous flows towards what? Back to DevArt? Fanart Central? Media Miner?

Oh wow---for once, someone screeched way past SUP (LiveJournal) in the "let's try to make money off the bottom line, instead of users!" highway. I have to say that I'm impressed.

Flashing content that gives people seizures is worth it to "punish" people with AdBlock-- thanks for the fucking ableism, Sheezy. Now I know what site to never visit!

Also, n'aw, this reminds me of the time a random Hermione/Ginny video on youtube actually gave me seizures. :') Well that and the combination of too many ultrams.

Wow, nice to see I'm more validated in not wanting to get a SheezyArt account! Way to go, mods. Way to go.

I used to use Sheezyart to show off my art to people notonthe site itself because of it's customization options, rivaled by no other site I've been so far, but now I can't use it because if I showed it to someone as a professional portfolio, they wouldn't take me serious after they saw it flashing in case they were using adblock.

...But... SheezyArt's layout is so fugly ANYWAY D: (and their URL is silly :| )

Wow. I'm using adblock on Mozilla and I can see the site. I'm not using adblock on Opera (but it's built in) and I can't see the site.

This is ridiculous and it's not even effective.

I would just like for those admins to know that they've made me even more thankful that Google Chrome now supports extensions and my beloved AdBlock.

. . . now if only someone would get on making an LJLogin extension that would be fabulous.

On the plus side, the spork of "I'm the Goddamn Batman!" has updated since I last checked! Idiocy in fictional form makes me less terrified for all of humanity, I find...

... is SheezyArt that place where people posted their flash animations because dA wasn't allowing (copyrighted) soundtracks?

*reads about "the Goddamn Batman"* Oh LORDY, and I thought Linkara had highlighted all the bad in that comic. That's just... D8

The mods are total ableist assholes.

But was I the only one who laughed when the Axis Powers Hetalia characters started trolling the post? As in pretty much this whole page: http://sheezyart.com/news/296/ ?
