There is a spammer/thief lurking about theO. And some of you are subscribed to her. Please don't feed her fire. Because I don't want to break theO's rules, I can't say her usernames (she has two active accounts and 40+ frozen ones), but I can describe her mannerisms and "her art". She sticks out like a sore thumb, so you'll be able to recognize her.
The pictures that she posts are usually stolen from DevaintART users. She tends to resize those pictures and puke on them with MS Paint. Then she pours a bucket load of digital glitter on them. Sometimes, she adds a loop of text which, when legible, makes no sense.
Now that eCards have retired, she's been making wallpapers for upcoming holidays. Usually, it's just a pixelated image with a calendar of the current month slapped on.
The comments she makes on her cards are usually, "Thanks [username]" or "Commission 4 [username]". Lately, she's been obsessed with the word "commission" and the non-word "colabission". Other times, she tells users what "your" a fan of, whether it's true or not.
Her favorite subject matter:
- Children's TV shows
- Sega games (Sonic, Klonoa, and the like)
- Shoujo anime
- Chii from Chobits
- Characters that she paints over to look like Chii from Chobits
- Characters sticking their feet out
- Characters tied up and getting their feet tickled
- Characters sucking on each other's feet
- Characters sucking on each other's feet while naked (poorly censored with pictures of pajamas, of course)
- Furby toys
Usually, "her art" starts of more-less innocent, but escalate to the fetishist junk as time goes on.
Over the years (yes, years), I've PMed Adam several times about her behavior. It eventually got to a point where I asked him to block her IP address. He did so, but he also warned me that there are ways around the block. And guess what? The spammer came back the very next day.
It seems that there's no way to get rid of her. The only thing left I can think of is to ignore her and hope she goes away. That means unsubscribing, removing her spam from your favorites, and not commenting on anything that she posts. I know you're only trying to be polite when you give her attention, but it's only encouraging her bad behavior.
If you want a list of all her usernames that she's gone under, you can PM me.
Thank you for your time.
BIG UPDATE: Adam made me a mod in order to delete the stolen works. I have deleted all her wallpapers on her two active accounts, as well as some of her lingering spammy comments (and links to direct downloads) from a few of her banned accounts. The only downside to this is that I can't modify her eCards or outright ban her. The good news is that she hasn't been back since I deleted the wallpapers. My guess is that she gave up, but I'm not holding my breath.
