I have some important information to share with you guys today! Firstly, I would like to outline a few basics, as many of you are aware, this is a Nyan Cat appreciation blog! A good portion of my followers are artists, I sift through pages and pages of art and reblog all the best Nyan Cat art from you incredibly talented fellow enthusiasts! I do this because I truly enjoy it.
There has been a disturbance in the rainbow for some time now and it has finally gotten to the point where I feel like I should tell you guys what has been happening with your original art, your handmade costumes, those cute pictures of your kids dressed like Nyan Cat. I’m afraid, many of you are going to be upset, so let me start with, I’m sorry.
I can’t remember exactly when it all started, maybe a year ago? This Facebook page began scraping near all the content from my blog, with no credit back to you (or me, which would ultimately still lead to you). I let it slide for a longggg time and then it became more and more frequent and impossible to ignore. If they like my content (YOUR content) so much, why not toss a link back?? I feel like, instead of finding content themselves, they scrape is from 4 or 5 blogs and that is it.
Anyone who attempts to talk to them about it gets blocked right away. When I tried to talk to them about it, they blocked me and literally screenshot my top Nyan Cat post and posted it.
Aside from causing a fuss, there is nothing I can do about this, this the internet, that content isn’t mine but it is YOURS!
They have already removed some of the posts (I have a feeling they have a procedure for this because it happens ALL the time) but much of it is still there. If I have reblogged any of your original work in the past year, please take the time to track it down on their FB page and report it. Do this in the name of Art and giving credit where credit is due! ♥
I am happy to answer any ?
