cheap_knockoffs - Profile (original) (raw)

Ever been ripped off? Stolen from? Had someone lash out at you because they are, in fact, a jealous bitch?
Well, now you can call those bitches out. Welcome to cheap_knockoffs.

RULES
o1 READ THE DAMN RULES.

o2 You know what? We're not going to be nice here. That's not how we do it. If someone rips you off,
or steals your stuff to claim as their own, it makes you angry. This is a place to rant your
ass off, not to try and mollycoddle someone who is a thief.

o3 ALL POSTS ARE LOCKED. MEMBERSHIP IS MODERATED. Don't get us wrong--we want you in this community.
But we also need to look out for those of us who have been knocked off. Sock journals (journals that
have no entries, no information, and are brand new) are not accepted. We think those are trolls.

o4 Feel free to post the accusee's name and offense in your rant. Just make sure any images bigger
than 800x600 pixels go behind an LJ-Cut. Spare the f-lists, please.

o5 Thieves: Don't start wars. Want to talk? Fine. Do it here. Want to spam, and yell, and act
like a jackass? Go do it in your own journal. Don't go to the person who called you out's journal
and spam them. That's just not good form, sir.

o6 Tag your entry with whatever medium you're ranting about. IE Icons, videos, headers, layouts, codes, etc.
You get the idea.

o7 We aren't iconrants. Don't like a style of icon, or that really annoying texture
that's all the rage? That's nice. Don't talk about it here. This isn't the place for it.

o8 Don't post edited icons from ohnotheydidnt, even if you're offended they took your icon and did things to it. The internet, welcome to it.

o9 Points for whoever's post is the most snarky. We like snarky. It's hot.

And, finally:

1o Have a good fucking time. You know you love it.

You know, I should probably add that we're not, you know, elitist bitches. We just get tired
of the world being sucked of its creativity.

NOTE
We know that we're using copyrighted material. It takes time, and yes, quite a few drops of
creativity to do what iconmakers, or graphic makers, or artists, do. So don't start lecturing us
about how easy it is to crop a picture, or stick a clip into a slideshow. Care goes into every move we make.
