How Do I Report Someone?

[DragonPunch]

For stealing my artwork? I have two pieces now on 4Chan without my permission. The user in question is Asperchu, who thought it would be really freakin' cool to steal my art and post it on 4Chan. How do I report him to get his account banned and the links removed as well as these posts taken down? By the way, the links to the 4Chan posts are here:

This douchebag needs to be removed from the internet, period. Screw you, Asperchu! I appreciate your advice, but you screwed up big time! You kicked the wrong freakin' hornet's nest, pal. See you never!

Something you're gonna want to take up with the 4Chan mods. Me? I stay far away from that corner of the internet.

But art uploaded here is protected by Newgrounds isn't it?

lol, I think Asperchu is a troll (I've seen him do lots of other questionable things...)

Apparently not. I was wrong for trusting this site again. Well, DeviantART, here I come exclusively to you to stay. Way to go, Asperchu. *Facepalms at his stupidity*

There's no difference if he copied your stuff from here or there. Unless deviantArt goes out of their way to make thwm take it down which I doubt.

You are indeed, correct about that. If only there were a way to combat this kind of thing effectively.

I'm not attempting to be rude, but why do you care if it's on 4chan? 4chan is a horrible website, and I wouldn't care that much if my shit got stolen so long as it was only posted on 4chan and nowhere else. Did Asperchu even put his name there, or was he being an Anonymous when he did it?

Yeah, i didn't even see his name anywhere there. How do you even know it was him OP?

[BubblyMac]

Yeah, I don't think many people consider 4Chan a legitimate art website, so I wouldn't worry too much about people thinking the art isn't your. I'd be pissed too, but come on....it's 4Chan.

Although he possibly broke 1 of 3 of your licensing terms, 'Attribution', he is in no way profiting from your work. Posting anonymously, there is little to no evidence supporting someone besides you posted it on 4chan. Your idea of "stealing" is excessive in this instance

Isn't that what watermarks are for

Look up Asperchu. He messages me saying, "I posted some of your pieces there, everyone is a brutal asshole, so I'll just get all the helpful ones out of there."

That's not the problem. He posted it without my express written permission, AND made it sound like he was me. The original post on 4Chan had my AT style piece, with the message, "How'd I do?"

You're supposed to give me credit before posting the piece, not posting it as if it were yours. He's such a dumbass.

1. Click the check box on the offending post.

2. Scroll to the bottom and click on report. You'll be asked for a reason and such.

I totally understand why you are upset. But this is NOT newgrounds.com's fault.

We cannot stop him from saving your art work, we cannot stop him from taking a screenshot, taking out his camera and snapping a pic etc.

If you upload any of your artwork anywhere online, it can get stolen. That's just the internet.

Calm down.

You need to get the link from where you posted it on NG. You need to send a polite e-mail/PM to the admins or mods at 4chan.
Keep it simple and to the point. "I am so and so. Here is a link to my artwork on newgrounds.com. So and so from your site has posted it as his own. Can you please have it removed. Thank you."

There ya go.

Report him, stay calm and polite in your report, it will eventually be taken down.
