I'm in a bit of a quandry...

So, the guy I mentioned on Deviantart who is ripping off other people's artwork is still at it, and I can't do anything to stop him, because I'm not the original artist, and the original artist HAS to be the one to file the complaint. I let Wolfblade know about this, but he's too busy to do anything about it, so the guy is basically running unopposed with this. This puts me in a bit of a fix; I don't want to be associated with Deviantart, anymore, because of this gross negligence and willful ignoring of the facts, but I'm working with KabalMystic on models, and the only way currently I can contact him is through Deviantart; he has a Patreon, but it's too expensive for me to sign up as a patron for it. So, I'm kinda stuck; I want to leave, but I can't. What do you guys think I should do? The guy is stealing people's stuff from all across the net, so it's not like he's taking them solely from Deviantart, and he knows he's stealing them; he specifically told me that he wasn't going to give credit to a porn artist that he copied. I want this guy taken down, but I've done all I can about it, and with no one to oppose him, he'll just continue, which I find sickening. I'm stuck on what I can do about this, and how I can deal with it, if nothing changes...

im sure if you can get enough people to help you find the original post and they all site them in a complaint to the staff they would have to do something specially if hes claming it as his own

Nope, their rules are very clear: only the original artist being ripped off can file a report, and the only ones that I know of that he's done is with Wolfblade. So, without Wolfblade doing anything, he's free to continue with his thievery.

We've talked a bit about it, but the most he said was tht he was too busy to compile a list of offenses himself, and that if I was able to send him one, he'd act on it. I did, and he hasn't, yet, and I can't get a hold of him, anymore, so I dunno what's going on with him...
