gregrutter:

tl;dr: The Frogman is one of the most prolific original content creators, Reddit routinely posts it without crediting him, causing him to lose out on a significant amount of traffic to his site and reducing ad revenue.

This is my biggest problem with Reddit and Imgur. Their partnership was supposed to just be an easy way to host photos to avoid deep-linking or crashing links. But the Frogman is on Tumblr. The photos are already hosted. There’s no worry about crashing his site with a rush of 19-year-old atheists in college. 

Do the right thing Redditors.

  10. rumoko said: What a bunch of bullshit. I’ve complained: reddit.com/r/AskRe… Looking forward to my downvotes/banning.
  11. cycostinkoman said: Try to have others credit you when they post your stuff. If they let you post your own things then they have to let other people, it really becomes a problem for sites like this. People just end up wanting to share their own things, quality or not.

  15. tomithejellyfish said: Fuck Reddit, they’re ALWAYS doing this shit.
  16. merelyaspectator said: This guy sounds like a jackass. They need to unban you and stop allowing the stolen content to slide.
  17. mrbriancomputer said: If all else fails you could always try to add your own little watermark into your images from now on, so even though everything you make is stolen and submitted, the source is still there. At least until you sort this out.
  18. luke-hole said: But 5 posts out of 25 is 20%. Are they retarded?
