No, you are correct. They do not have a moral right to arbitrarily delete content, even if they are hosting the site, because they are a platform that hosts content from other people, and so they have a responsibility to treat the people they depend on with respect. If they were content creators...

There's a few points I'm not necessarily in agreement with, but overall I do think this captures the meat of the issue which is the shiftiness and dishonesty of the whole affair. It certainly would not have been nearly as big of an issue if they had been open about it and done something along...

At this point, you can create a much more amusing and yet sadly accurate statement if you substitute every instance of "misinformation" and "conspiracy theories" with "spoilers" - this is because it's leaking you reality about six months in advance of the official confirmation.

Dude have you seen the way they've been talking in this thread and elsewhere? How they have suddenly yoinked up all this stuff about copyright? Honestly, I can keep going but anyone with eyes can see what's on the horizon. It's not "misinformation" or "rumours", we can literally see what they've...

Considering how they've handled the issue thus far.... yeeeeeeaaaaah.... I wouldn't count on them doing anything at all.

There's nothing so permanent as a temporary measure afterall.

It never worked for anyone any of the many times they did this exact same thing, but goshdarnit I swear, this time will be different!

Truly the janny's nature is eternal and unchanging no matter the age nor the place.

Wow, and just when I thought the pettiness couldn't get any worse. Seriously?

They are the same universe, that is, the Nasuverse, but they are on different timelines where the events that transpired in the past are quite different and lead to a starkly different "meta" and circumstances, but that's neither here nor there for the thread itself.

I assume you mean Tsukihime, which isn't part of the "Fate" franchise(same universe not same series or even timeline), wasn't "professionally" made(Type Moon was still a doujin circle at the time), and it wasn't the first published in the setting either(that would be the LN version of Kara no...

That IS the point. It's a drawing(so not real, and it is art) of the worst thing imaginable. If you want to stand for artistic freedom and against censorship, you have to spend most of your time defending the most fringe content because that is what will always be under attack first. Censorship...

You completely miss the point. A good proportion of people here(myself among them) don't actually care about the loli itself, it's about the principle of standing against censorship and outrage at the conduct of the site staff around this issue. The entire point of freedom of expression and...

Imagine my shock. Zero accountability taken, not even the most wet noodle "im sorry :(" or corpobabble apology. No explanations given for who demanded it or what laws were broken. None of our questions answered. Not even a list of removed titles. And zero staff members seen in this thread in...

I wasn't going to comment here, but since there has been much framing of the outrage as the work of "new accounts", I'll throw my lot in as well and do my part to keep the thread alive and going. I've read through all the posts and I'll just put in my two-cents, which are hardly anything new. I...
