    This comic is NOT modified so please stop reporting for rule 4.

    Edit: Thank you beep.

      Beep could easily link directly to the sites that are on these reddit posts instead of linking to reddit.

      Or specifically looking for comics that are on Reddit already edited out without signatures…

      It’s just malicious compliance at this point.

        I did my research, this comic by Deogie (https://tinyview.com/deogie/2026/04/15/smart-as-heck) has no signature on it that I could find. This means there was no scrubbing done before hand. Giving the basics for attribution is really all that matters, the reddit has exact links.

        Weather this is malicious compliance or not is irrelevant, there is nothing to enforce.

        If Beep wants to find comics with no signatures, thats fine. As long as there is an easy link to learn more or find more, then there is no problem.

    See, this is a compromise. Now he’s just finding comics that don’t have credits on them to begin with.

    We could have avoided so much drama.

        Dude uses AI slopifiers to remove watermarks and artist signatures, then reposts them without credit, because he thinks it counts as advertising. In many cases this modifies the original comic structure.

            I block him on the principle of the thing and how loud he is about it elsewhere. The subject of this isn’t the comic in this post, it’s the fact that beep isn’t banned.
