My point is that she admitted to her mistake and she payed for it by leaving CS, so what is the point of bringing it back up? To shame her further? I just think it annoying that people are so quick so judge her and talk about her like she is a horrid person. I actually saw a CS staff member say earlier that her feelings don't matter anymore! How would that make you feel if you were the one being talked about? Yes, she made a mistake and a large one but why can we not just let it go? This is what drives me INSANE about people on CS, they will say anything! Please at least TRY to pit yourself on their shoes before saying anything bad about her or her art I dont care what you saw today on this thread but I have seen people bash her and her art for what she did and people have even gone as far as to call her a disgrace, something which hurts me deeply and I did not even know her. I cannot even begin to imagine what she would be feeling if she saw even a fraction of the things that were posted about her today by simply rude and cruel people. Have you all NEVER heard of the phrase forgive and forget? I know she did something wrong but she still deserves to be forgiven.
I'll end my rant now.
Okay, consider that we don't want to personally target her. Actually, I never talked to or knew her, like most of us here, so I cannot judge her character.
We looked at her art and determined SOME of it to be traced. That's a fact, at least for the foal line art. Several staff members agree to tracing allegations. Her actions after this cannot be taken into account when it comes to copyright.
If I burn your house down, apologizing isn't going to fix it. The only real way to fix it is to raze the structure to the ground and rebuild it, if you catch my drift.
