Bandwidth stealing is bad. Not to say I havent dont it once in a very blue moon when I am unable to upload the pic to my own server and need to show it... but 99.999 percent of the time I take it and upload it to tikifish.com. How can you tell if someone is linking to someone elses pic (except when you see a 'bandwidth exceeded' pic?) Seems like a pretty tough thing to continually police. Would tak an awful lot of time. And there's enough asshattery on TC these days without having to check image sources on top of everything! So let this thread be the news, and hopefully most people will see it, and think twice before they link to someone elses site without permission... That's my 2 kilobytes wirth.... |
