Then the terrorists have won.

So, it doesn't even matter if the content is actually copyrighted? Even fraudulent complaints count?

I doubt it's spam, he probably links to the pictures in his complaints as proof that he owns them.

I take it they don't provide actual examples of what has been posted that is supposedly infringing on copyright?

It's shit taken from Pat's instagram.

Under DMCA law, we need his permission to repost anything he posts himself on social media. It legally belongs to him.

From what Space is saying though or perhaps just revealed, it doesn't matter if it's a legitimate copyright or not, Reddit Admins see high report numbers and don't care about disputing the claims. Then what? What if he just reports any image posted here?

Space was literally just speculating. I doubt claims in and of themselves are the problem, the high number that actually get removed (and there have been a lot) are what the issue likely is.

Pat isn't reporting this to the admins, he's reporting it to the government.

Some government agent goes "okay, this is clearly from his instagram", sends a message to reddit to take down the post, and then move on to the next DMCA violation. Admins get tired of constantly having to deal with this shit.

If he files a false DMCA violation, he could get in trouble. But someone would need to prove, in real life with your real name and all that shit, that he did not own the copyright that he filed a request on.

http://www.aaronkellylaw.com/consequences-of-filing-a-false-dmca-takedown-request/

I'd expect that fat fuck knows that, and thus only files DMCA violations on legitimate copyrights.

He could be calling our bluff. I don't see anyone here having the time or money to file a claim in court. And what would that lead to? Unless it's a whole batch of them and he gets charged with frowed, I don't see it being worth it. We know how easily people using their real name here goes from hero to villain in a heartbeat. That kid that called Joe was accused of orchestrating a puff piece for Joe just because he didn't come off horrible enough. Imagine losing to Pat in court

No one has had anything removed yet that wasn't from Fat's Insta. They tend to post it here when it happens.

The plaintiff: Patrick Tooooomlison....

This is the defendant: r/Opienaaaaanthony

/u/lawyerherelistenup time to rep us in court

That retarded faggot got his "law degree" from a Bazooka Joe wrapper, don't ask him for anything besides what time it is and even then double check it yourself.

There are criminal penalties for false DMCA takedown notices so that should be the area of focus. Anyone who received the takedown notice should post them here and actual knowledgeable people like myself will help out with a response. Patrick will be in way over his head if he is filing false claims.

You’re were the dumbest Korean kid in your church.

a Bazooka Joe wrapper,

Fuck you're old.

"Old" to this stupid faggot is just being able to remember things.

Hey remember the War of 1812? >>Fuck you're old

Shut up, stupid.

I don't think that's true at all. Copyright is a matter of civil law, and I highly doubt Patrick filed lawsuits for this. You have to deliver a takedown notice to the offending party first. In this case, he probably complains to reddit admins, as reddit is obligated to help in these matters, as the platform hosting it.

can we demod this idiot? not understanding the law has got to be the last straw with this hall monitor bullshit.

How does it work then?

What part is he getting wrong? You own your own posts on instagram. You just also allow instagram license to use it.

https://medium.com/mark-dalton-photography/do-you-own-the-content-you-post-to-instagram-should-you-watermark-it-889f51c7f8f3

Can we lynch you? Sick of your shit

who's we, nigger?

Can we lynch that StBrenton retard aswell while we're at it?

Well, dummy?

well what, nigger?

I don't think posts themselves can be DMCA'd, just pics, because the person who takes a picture by default owns the copyright.

i'm a retard but surely if you upload any sort of pic to a public social media account, it's fair game for anyone to post that pic elsewhere?

No, not really. You can download the pic, jerknoff to it if you want, but reposting it is up to the discretion of the owner. Just because it's public doesn't mean it's fair use.

fair enough, i don't post images of patso anyway but for people that do, can they manipulate/blur the image and that's still fine?

No, we can't really use a photo that Fat or someone he knows took safely. Manipulating it doesn't make it no longer his.

Now, if some D&D nerd went to GenCon, and took pics of Fatrick himself, he would be the copyright holder of those pics.

that's gay but at least it's black & white as opposed to some vague bullshit

Any pics posted become the property of the site they are posted to. Whether facebook, myspace, instaspam, tweeter. The page "owner" or user doesn't have a claim in those cases, only the site. At most it would be complaining as a proxy for said site and they aren't allowed to speak for said site.

No, the pics still belong to who took them. By uploading them to the site, the owner is licensing them to the site, not signing over ownership. They're still your pics and you own the copyright, but you've agreed to let Facebook or whoever do what they want from them.

IP law is so fucking dumb. It should be abolished whole-cloth. And my entire job revolves around patents, which might be the least dumb form of IP law. It's still shit.

Not true instagram owns that and he’s a public figure

That seems to be a legal grey area at most. Internet and IP lawyers seem to think that, mostly, public social media posts used for non-commercial reasons are fair use. Photographs are cut and dry, you can't use them without permission.

Yah but Instagram owns them not pat i know that for fact it’s in the user agreement

No, Instagram doesn't own the pictures, Pat does. Their user agreement licenses them authorized use of them. They can sell them or basically do whatever they want with them, because you are licensing them, but you still own them.

This seems to be correct. The "Instagram Owns Your Content" headlines were out there a couple years ago, but very overblown. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/arts-and-entertainment/wp/2015/05/25/a-reminder-that-your-instagram-photos-arent-really-yours-someone-else-can-sell-them-for-90000/?utm_term=.2be10e49c15c

Yeah, that was a lot of fear-mongering. The average person has no reason to believe that Instagram or Facebook are selling their photos, even if they have a legal right to.

Honestly, don't upload your life if you want it private. Everyone is leaving such a digital footprint, it's disturbing. I have friends who, if you Google their name, you can find everything about the last ten years of their life with ease. If you Google my name, you find a whole lot of shit about some other guy that has the same name and that's about it. I like that a lot better.

Same here, if you google Turd Ferguson you get a more handsome successful man. I like that a lot better.

Sounds like you're on a watchlist .

Same thing. If you really value your personal life being private you should just keep it to yourself, rather than aim for some virtual social approvation

He's definitely not a public figure.

He’s more of a pubic figure.

this is accurate. this warning smells bogus

What if its a pic of a pic?

Well, that's where it gets murky. That's when a judge has to decide how much of the original work is there, how much of it is part of a bigger piece, does it constitute as fair use, etc... So I don't think there's a set answer for that. If you're talking about using your phone to take a picture of an instgram pic that's on the screen, then no, no one is going to buy that. Reddit would just honor the DMCA and leave it for the courts to hash out.

What if it's a pic of my dick with the person pic in the background? Possibly with my dick over their mouth to insinuate they're sucking it, would that be ok?

Fair use applies to parody. Please don't post any pictures of "Gate Crashers," but "Gay Crashers" is a perfectly acceptable book.

Why is spaceedge here?

Check the name again dummy

Thank you

Fair use is pretty expansive. I find it almost impossible that this sub’s usage of other people’s images has ever constituted frank copyright infringement.

It’s not that there’s a real legal threat. It’s that it’s not worth Reddit’s time to adjudicate these matters. Same thing with YouTube. The common-law rule on any social media platform is anything taken from someone else is de facto infringing on copyright, should the originator choose to complain about it.

Admittedly I don't know anything about it but haven't you noticed how many lousy pictures are the top main pic of wikipedia pages? Including for topics where you've seen millions of better ones available. It's an unmistakable pattern and it has always suggested to me that it's not remotely easy to be fully in the clear when using an image. I'm leaning heavily toward what others have said insofar as if someone wants to get you for images, they definitely can do so.

A lot of whether or not it’s copyright infringement is context-based, and has to do with why you are using the content, whether or not using the content was material to your endeavor or if you were just being lazy when you could have been not-lazy and used a different image etc. The reason Wikipedia uses images directly from photographers is because if they just let people do a Google image search and upload some picture of Angus Young (or whatever) from People magazine, People paid a photographer for that photo to enhance their publication. Wikipedia would just be taking it for free for the exact same reason People used it in the first place. That’s just being a lazy stealing fuck. But they can use the “Highway to Hell” album cover, because there’s no other way to illustrate that thing, and it’s a public piece of work that they have the right to identify and comment on.

Most of what this sub does probably does classify as commentary on public figures, and you don’t have to agree to or declare that you are a public figure in order to be one. Once Pat commented on a public forum about a public issue (the Norm thing) and then started engaging people on this subreddit using his social media platforms, he became a limited public figure. And probably every single instance of using his content can be defended as material to critiquing of him as a figure and the work he puts out. He wouldn’t agree, obviously, but part of fair use protects you when you’re using the work of someone you have an adversarial relationship with.

And Facebook and google.

Unlike his child

It actually legally doesn't, but I know reddit will do what they'll do.

Given the amount of Twitter posts reposted on Reddit it seems there must be some fair use, maybe something close to The New York Times rule about public exposure

doesn't it legally belong to Instagram/Facebook?

No, they basically get a copyright complaint and then take down said material without actually looking at it, or looking into it. Has the idiot complaining actually provided any proof that he owns the copyright to said images? Wait, it doesn't matter. Reddit just takes it down. I honestly thought this was Fatrick's new way of getting posts removed.

At what point do the mods push back on all the non-legitimate DMCA requests? We have rights too

Wait... so /u/Space_Edge was right?

Wait... so you're saying /u/space_edge was right to be a dick about it?

Talk about flipping the script.

And yet it appears to be true.

All of that is true but at least we didn’t face being shutdown on a daily basis or have so much gay mod drama.

Everyone would have been okay with him doing what he did if that was the case.

But when pushed further to see if his post of "Hey I dont know who this patrick is so no more posts or ur banned" was a retarded way of saying "hey we're gonna get banned if we dont cool it", it was proven that no he's just a retard junkie who power-tripped for god knows why

We was only foolin.

We was only funnin

But guiltily I thought he had it comin

I fucked up the quote?

Ties rope around beam in mom's basement and stares at half eating plate of pizza rolls. Kicks stool.

Well clearly that cripples fingers are still functional.

Honestly, I think this might be the end, folks. See you at r/scorch

Don't be all gloom and doom. Just remove posts that feature pics of the fat fucks we know are doing this.

Then what's the difference between here and the old sub?

This one is still open

For the moment, child

That message from the admins was pretty vague. I think we'd have to remove more than just that shit in order to not be fucked.

Anyone here who ever bitched that a post was taken down by a DMCA had a pic from instagram. It's pretty clear where the complaint stem from.

Let it die bro, they stick to the Patrick jokes because they don't agree with his Trump bashing. The political faggotry finally reached OnA sub.

Then we're in the same situation we were in with the old sub

The admins flat-out said they'd ban the sub. This isn't Tommyboy and Toolman deciding what is off-topic and what isn't based on their own personal politics and preference, this is the website telling us they'll shut us down.

Fuck that. We're not giving this place up that easy.

Just fucking lighten up, faggots. Don’t nigger up this sub with stolen bicycles and other people’s kids

But I have seven bikes to get rid of

It's clear this is about Patrick and Liz's instagram pictures.

He's lurking the sub, reporting every single one.

99% of reddit technically falls under copyright. Every image in a Game of Thrones sub is owned by HBO. Every song in r/music. Every news article.

Some lawyer probably advised him this is the "best" way to get us shut down. Just pile on the DMCA copyright violation notices, again and again and again and again.

Yet another cowardly, bitch move.

All it takes is someone to de-anonymize themselves and fight the copyright. He's counting on nobody doing that.

It's not fair use if he took them and we're flat-out screenshotting the whole photo. He took the pics, that means he owns the digital rights.

It's fair use if I cut out his sloppy lips, flip them 90 degrees and edit them into a photo to look like someone's vagina.

It's what Mondays were made for.

Arguable. Rehosting images, even unchanged, can be seen as transformative, hence fair use, if the context is clearly ridicule or commentary.

One important factor is: did you subtract profits from the original creator? Nobody seeing it here would follow this moron on Instagram.

We're not talking about what it would take to defend it in court, we're talking about the reddit admins.

It's still fair use, the reddit admins just don't give a fuck. But that's semantics.

It is kinda brilliant. The two spaghetti niggers didn't think of it.

Well, for all his faults, even we can't deny Patrick is 100% European.

That comes with a certain intellectual prowess that North Africans such as the Cumias lack.

He paid some scumbag ambulance chaser to tell him this. He loses.

(((((Ambulance Chaser)))))

Then how the fuck does nbastreams still exist lol

They don't have a fat faggot following them around like a duckling and reporting every post

I saw the raptors sixers game today from there

Yeah it's great

That’s impossible. He told me he was thick skinned. It’s only the libel stuff that bothers him, not the fun we have with pictures of him. He told me so himself. This can’t be right.

He'd tell you if it bothered him. Genuinely.

Shush child, let the grownups speak...

I thought he was too busy and cool to spend time on us.

Is that 2 wheeled faggot u/PrinceJvstin behind all this?

Professor (Childse)X's fingerprints are all over this, as opposed to his footprints, which are on nothing.

I must say, I found this lovely.

I do it for you.

He should roll his ass into oncoming traffic.

This might be a stupid question and I know you guys don’t have all the info. Are we to assume the problem is coming from SpaceEdge or Fatrick? Or multiple sources?

It's fucking Fatrick, of course. He can't actually sue hundreds of trolls, so he's doing the only thing he can.

He can't please either of his wives or see his kid either.

Or write, or tell a joke

SpaceEdge honestly probably killed himself. I'm gonna say it's Pat, Liz and the wheelchair fag.

"Fatrick?" Real mature, child.

oh well bye faggots

Bye bitxh

See you on /r/scorch

So bad image posting for a month or decide that you've bitten off more than you can chew and let it ride out into the sunset. You're saying it doesn't even matter if the images are legitimately copyrighted or not, so it sounds like it doesn't really matter what image gets posted at this point, if it's about Patrick, he's just going to report it.

They are. They're Fatrick's pictures. He took them. That makes them his. So we just don't make posts of his pics. Comments are still on table. He can't DMCA screencaps of public social media comments he makes.

I'm saying what if he just keeps filing false claims? They don't have the manpower to dispute or look into every single image. They see high report numbers and declare us banned? We would have to stop posting images for a few weeks

They'd just have banned us already if that's what they wanted. They shut down subs all the time with no warning. We just put a pin in posts of peoples' social media pics and we should be fine. Nothing for him to claim.

I guess we'll see..

Shush child, let the grownups speak...

Bunch of stuffed shirts those admins

Woah, are you trying to get us shut down? Watch your language!

simple answer: Patrick is a copyright troll who is make claims against material that is clearly under fair use

Pics taken straight from his Insta aren't fair use, and there's been plenty of those. His comments are fair game, fuck him. I'll just post the stupid, banal shit that he says. Prior to his Facebook timeout, that's what we did, post the stupid shit he said. We just go back to that.

if it's parody, which these clearly are, it's under fair use

Parody protects imitations for comedic purposes, flat-out taking a photo and saying "This guy is a faggot" may not fall under that definition.

Hey, I'm not saying I agree with all this stupid bullshit, he's just got to convince reddit, and apparently has been.

So then you expect them to take action any minute now.

Shush child, let the grownups speak...

They're retards and faggots anyway

True

We need someone to steer the ship

So, they don't even know if this place is breaking the rules. All they know is they are getting too many complaints?

Hmm so as long as you spam report a sub you can get it shut down because the head muckity mucks don't check anything, then just shut it down based on number of complaints. Lmao reddits so fucking gay

They know it's more than just complaints, dozens of posts actually got taken down, and because they actually violated the DMCA. He's not just making shit up, he's filing against pics he owns the digital rights to.

Great. So as long as the mods take down what they need to then there should be no problem. They can't control what people post, all they have to do is show they are attempting to enforce the rules.

Quite frankly, it wasn't even an issue before Fatty got temp-banned from Facebook. Most people were just screencapping his shitty posts. It's only become a big thing because, now that he's religated to Instagram and every post is a picture.

Because mods taking stuff down always goes over well.

No, because faggots like you fry about it

Cry about what, nigger? I haven’t done anything.

And, as rumor has it, there are groups of users with alts going around posting things intentionally to get subreddits banned.

San Francisco, big surprise! Those fruitcakes

So is this an admission that all those horribly racist things said on comedy club stages WERE P-Titty's jokes?

favorite this https://archive.fo/q88Mi

Admins are faggot kikes.

I hope I'm not infringing on anyone's copyright by saying this.

That mid western faggot (probably not going to be able to say his name soon) is such a fucking crybaby.

So avoid real life pics and use codenames to shit on the people we want to.

I like Sloooby Doo Liz and FatPrick Sloblinson just fine.

What otha nicknames we got?

Ummm....

Nana Titdee boy Da worm

I saw P-Titty earlier, I'm fond of that.

Yeah I've been using P-Titty after stealing it from someone else and it's pretty great

COOOOOORS

The sad thing about all this (for Pat) is that this can only work because he is the only one who ever wanted to take a picture of him.

Yea I searched his name on Getty images and got a big fat goose egg. His stupid abortion tweet is literally the only reason anyone outside this sub knows who he is.

Does 4chan have ambiguous rules as well? This site blows cocks

i made a gay 8chan board but it's a last resort

https://8ch.net/oanda/catalog.html

Thanks

Fuck it. I'll go back to hell if I have to.

hopefully not, the format here works a lot better for this type of sub despite the rest of reddit being gay

plus the board will just get shit posts and i'm too lazy to "moderate"

It could be used to interface with this sub though. Can't shut down this sub for what happens there.

Unfortunately that’s not the case. Reddit can shut down any sub they like, without explanation if they so choose. It has happened before.

Understood, but at least then they wouldn't have an actual cause. Also, there would be a non reddit place to go and re group if and when this is shut down. Keep in mind that all of this is gay and retarded.

Your talent in the arts is exquisite.

Bravo.

We're on double secret probation.

It was a good 6 years fellas. Your mom's box.

Remove image posting.

We host links on imgur. Post links here in post. They get copy right claimed. Imgur gets the notice, not reddit.

Seems sound, in theory. Do we want to risk it?

Well, prior to him being religated to Instagram, we rarely used his pics. The overwhelming majority of what we posted were the faggy things he'd post, not pics. I don't see why we can't go back to until, like you say, we at least have something of better idea of how to skate his current bullshit scheming.

What about that noodle legged old guy who took the picture of Fatrick? He seemed to really sperg out when we used that photo. Maybe it's him all along?

best policy may be to just link direct to his page if you want to discuss something about him.

It’s the only way to save the sub. Cumins are going to do the same thing.

You know, if some fucking nerd here went to GenCon and took photographs of him, and then watermarked the photo to establish clear ownership, we'd be able to use those pics for whatever we wanted. Just sayin'.

I'm not really a big fan of finding technical loopholes and shit, BUT if the admins only really give a shit that they have to do cleanup it could work.

I don't want Patrick to go "see, they're still doing it" and have the admins close us down.

My concern is that he'll say that, even though the pics our being hosted on a different service, that the DMCA violations still are originating from here. I'm not sure trying to squeak by on a technicality is going to cut it.

It's worth a shot goddamnit

I don't think it is. We're still the ones posting it, I doubt reddit will give two shits where it's being hosting, we're still using his photos against his wishes, I doubt they're going to be swayed by a technicality.

Tell me I'm pretty.

What if we hosted on imgur, posted it to a dummy sub, then cross-posted that post from that middle man sub here?

It's so overly complicated, it.just.might.work...

I'm sure fatty is going to just start including in his takedown requests that this sub is still where the infringements are stemming from and that we're trying to sidestep them with technicalities, and I personally don't trust the admins not to humor him. You know he's going to file takedown requests anyways.It's all up to the mods at the end of the day what they want to allow, I'm just going to play it safe myself and stick to parody posts that don't use his pics. I'd rather not give him more ammunition against us when there's plenty of ways to mock his fat ass that he can't stop.

Yeah, I agree he would as well.

​

Godspeed mods.

I don't think that's how it works (but I'm not 100% sure). Google sometimes gives a message that it has removed results due to DMCA complaints which is clearly not for stuff they are hosting.

A war is being waged. Man your stations.

(((they're here)))

Google is NOT your friend .

Generally, linking to (potentially) infringing material isn't allowed either once notified--that's basically what the DMCAs are for, they have to give you a chance to come into compliance most of the time. You also can't completely embed material within a post via a frame etc, even if it's hosted on his IG.

The best you can do is let people include a text hyperlink directly to where the content's legally hosted/licenses so they have to click through to the place to see the content being made fun of.

This. Do it before Fatrick gets the place shut down and we have to spend 5 minutes making a new one

Lol i love how porn thrives on reddit with minimal takedowns yet this small sub is ready to get banned

There are entire subreddits dedicated to piracy that have been up for years

Nobody wants to admit they go there so they don't report violations.

Each of the poster of the content removed should have gotten a notice. They should be able to file a counter claim on Reddit.

https://www.reddithelp.com/en/categories/rules-reporting/copyright-help-center/what-can-i-do-if-content-i-posted-reddit-was

Back when he first did that, someone was going around warning people that filing a counterclaim opened them up to exposing their identity to Fatrick. I don't think anyone wanted to test the theory.

And then the person that filed the claim gets access to all your real info. Patrick is hedging his bets that no one here will do that.

I'm not giving Fatty my address and phone number so he can show up and cry on my front porch about how mean I was.

Maybe get the old sub back, anyone got a vape pen and some stepped on fentanyl? Or a hoagie , a hoagie machine.

If someone reported Space Edge's account for violations (if there are any) and it got banned, would Yamo or Toolman gain control and be able to reopen the real sub?

This sub feels like a greenscreen basement bastardization of something that used to be entertaining.

I assume this pertains to images uploaded to Reddit but how about imgur etc

pulitzer pat wins again

Can we still say nigger?

Until he copyrights it as his word.

I hope he tries to. Everyone would bask in the ensuing public outrage, and he’d have to file DMCA complaints at The Onion.

'Mooncricket' and 'Shine' are solid back ups.

You are always welcome to post here as well (where the DMCA reports won't hold as much weight).

Shush child, let the grownups speak...

I tried to get people to move to Voat when SpaceEdge went on his meltdown and got told off pretty thoroughly. "Oh it's full of edgelords"

It would solve a lot of our problems.

Edgelords or not, the Patrick and OpieandAnthony subs would be pretty private hangouts without the censorship. It's a completely legitimate alternative.

Voat sucks

Contrary to what joe and P diddlin' believe people here arent jobless nerds in their moms basement. Most ppl prolly check this sub on a slow work day, taking a shit etc. Reddit offers that accessability. I dont wanna circle through a voat app, reddit app and so on.

But hey if push comes to shove why not

Everyone's welcome there to post and comment without the fear of censorship over their head.

The simple answer is that someone who lives near one of these dumb conventions or the stupid bar need to go and take a picture of him, then everyone can use that for all the photoshops and whatnot

He's probably planning his nazi patrol for all public events.

it honestly disgusts me he carries a gun. He doesn't keep a gun in his car or for shooting range and shit, he legitimately keeps one on him because he's worried he will enervate someone to such a degree they will want to beat him to death. And of course instead of taking kickboxing or wrestling like an honourable man would do, he decides to betray ALL of his politics, and agree with conservatives on this single issue because he is so terrified of facing physical confrontation without the advantage of guns to fists.

He's clearly worried about negroes. It's that simple. Outside of this sub- he's anonymous. His claim to fame his being pimp slapped by Ben Shapiro in a public forum. Nice 15 minutes of fame, stupid.

How does it feel Fatrick, knowing that you’re supposed to be some kind of author, but you have to spend your time patrolling a sub because you’re too much of a little bitch to let any criticism of you go?

You are an absolute faggot, in my humble opinion. Only a complete piece of shit would be so concerned with what a bunch of anonymous people on the internet are saying about them. You are a fucking loser, and I hope you crash that faggoty little toy motorcycle of yours into a cement truck. I’m glad your ex is off fucking a real man with a real motorcycle.

You can get this sub banned, will open another one, and continue to bash your sorry ass. I have never seen a more loathsome puke in my life. Nice thin skin, stupid.

"Fatrick?" Real mature, child.

Reality>maturity, little one.

Oh, little one.

Would you rather be called Patso?

knowing that you’re supposed to be some kind of author, but you have to spend your time patrolling a sub because you’re too much of a little bitch to let any criticism of you go?

r/scorch is the backup

Here's a sneak peek of /r/scorch using the top posts of the year!

#1: SpaceEdge is a thin skinned, fat bellied junkie loser who lives with his parents and uses the sub as the only aspect of his terrible life he has any control over. He's also incapable of stringing together a single coherent sentence and is likely a pedophile.
#2: Patrick S. Tomlinson and u/spaceedge, NOT PFG!
#3: SpaceEdge is a dense, power-hungry, buzzkill dictator and he doesn’t deserve to control the sub.

^{I'm a bot, beep boop | Downvote to remove | Contact me | Info | Opt-out}

If they don't know now, they probably shouldn't be told.

I didn't know, not sure I would've found it had he not posted. I am grateful.

I own the copyright on all Scorch photos.

Delete and ban all instagram posts, you lazy mods. Simple as that.

Really. Do your fucking jobs

What if you take images and mirror them?

If anything, I can make a doodle of every single one of his Instagram posts. It would be a lot of work, but with all of your support behind me I can do it.

I'm thinking if you're serious there's some patreon or gofundme money in it for you.

I would pay Patreon you $8.89/mo. for that effort, hermanoman.

/u/patrickstomslinon you fat little pussy

It was probably those fat Chick pictures which this sub proudly said got taken down, then reposted several times...

Finding loopholes to re-host copyrighted content isn't going to get the admins to push back and say, "well, these maniacs sure figured out a way around that. Let's get the reddit legal team to write a use case, and we'll protect the sub while they prepare a defense in court."

If Conde Nast/Advanced Publications keeps getting complaints, they're going to shut the lights, lock the door, and there won't be so much as an eviction notice for this place.

What’s the fallout plan should this place get shut down ( not saying it will but just in case)?

I need my weekly beefer and [insert any person we hate] faggot posts for entertainment purposes

Why is everyone saying patrick owns his instagram pictures? I thought Instagram owns them once uploaded. Either way though, doesnt matter.

As a professional writer who makes 6 figurs a year, I can definitively state that your writing is atrocious. Go back to school, child.

Time to hold a "draw the patso" art competition.

what if we post the instagram link from instead, is that illegal?

If fat fucking Fatrick can take us down then who the fuck are we anymore?

What if we add something to the picture. Doesnt that fall under parody? Which is protected

Ban images. So we will have to post a link to imgur instead. Bette than getting this place shut down.

/u/SpaceEdge was right. This Patrick Tomlinson shit is fucking retarded. You're all idiots for caring about this fat fucking loser as much as you do.

Then why the fuck did you come here? They put his name in the banner, that wasn't fair warning enough for you?

Most of us came here because the other sub was marked private because of one autist who spergged out when he was doxxed and pictures of his alleged shoplifting were posted.

Because you assholes got the other sub closed because you're all fucking obsessed with that guy.

No, Edge shut the sub because Joe Cumia doxxed him and that led to the discovery of CCTV footage of Edge shoplifting. Follow the chain of events here, otherwise you look like a lurker that doesn't actually know what's going on.

no he's right actually, you're just describing the incidents that followed. none of it would have happened otherwise.

Uh huh. Yeah, I can see you have everything all figured out from your vantage point at cumtown.

don't get cunty with me, it's not my fault you can't follow a simple progression of events.

They're not posting this for legal reasons. They're posting it because they don't want the workload of reviewing excessive reports, whether they are legit or not.

Inb4 false flaggers come in here and post bannable shit on purpose under the guise of doing it for the laffs.

What's the rules on posting videos from YouTube policy

Really triggered ole Fatrick, eh boys? That’s fuckin awesome.

Good maybe this sub can be funny again. It started out strong then devolved into all the patrick trash. Now none of the posts can have thumbnails, nice going.

Most of the people here migrated to keep the Fatrick shit going. Just because a bunch of you faggots waited until the ship sunk, don't act like this sub was anything different. Pat was in the title bar when you showed up.

you guys could not behave and got the other sub closed and now you messed up this one as well

The fuck are you babbling about? No one got the other sub closed, SpaceEdge shuttered it himself because his "go start your own sub" bullshit stole most of the active posters from him, no one "shut down the sub" but a mod having an ego-driven meltdown. Go back to lurking, faggot.

It shutdown because you people could not stop doxxing him and posting the vape footage.

It didn't shut down at all, moron. It's still there.

its on lockdown. its dead

K, well that's quite different than "shut down". No one came an suspended the sub, one guy was pissed that people found video of him shoplifting and shut the doors because he was a thin-skinned pussy. Blame Joe for doxxing him.

A closed business is still physically there too, moron. Jesus you're dense

Are you SpaceEdge?

The fatrick shit has run it's course

Great, the casuals and lurkers of the sub don't like the bit. We got that, hence why the regular posters were already here before spaceedge slammed the door shut. No one gives a fuck. Don't partake. Filter out posts with his name in it.

Casuals and lurkers.... Yeah I'm definitely a newfag casual you fucking retard

Anarox is old school, I remember him here when O&A was still on the radio.

We got too uppity. Brigading, stalking Patrick... We've been stepping on the line more and more it was only matter of time.

. That's an unusually high number taking into account the community's size.

so the 18,000 alt account subscriptions are what saved the old sub? LOL

did u/thetoolman u/biggreenyamo get these kinds of messages in the old place?

Yes

quite, nigger

No.

God, I wish that message was individually addressed to all the mods on the sub. Nothing would make me happier than seeing a screenshot of a message from the faggot redditadmins that starts with

"Dear SpaceNiggerEdge ,"

So spaceedge is a mod on this sub now too?

Holy fuck read closer you fucking retards.

Retard faggot

You fucking piece of shit faggot

There's no coming back from such idiocy dude, just punch out of the sub.

I think we need to rebrand. Someone needs to set up r/hatebytherules

This sub fucking stinks.

"Over the past months we've had to remove material from the community in response to copyright notices 61 times"

Did you tell them this sub has been open for less than 2 weeks? Whats "months" are they talking about?

Then how is Barstool's reddit still up?

If we crowdfunded a Milwaukee private investigator to look into Fat's alleged pedophilia could the photographs gleaned from the investigation be posted?

There is no fucking way that we aren't abiding by fair use rules. The internet wouldn't even exist if the rules stopped people from doing exactly what we were doing.

Guess we had better kick the fair use satire up a notch.

Get them children. Leave no one standing.

Or does the fat baby own that one too?

I love how this country, the "progressive left" included, fucking worships at the altar of intellectual property.

The shit the EU just passed is insane and there's a good chance we'll get something similar. And nobody will bitch about it because they're too busy about someone who did the voice in a cartoon saying fag at a concert in 1982. We are a faggot country and this is an especially faggot fucking website.

Tattle culture. Only way to defend yourself is litigious skirt tugging. "THEY SAID BAD THINGS ABOUT ME MOMMY! MAKE IT GO AWAY SO I CAN KEEP SAYING HOW AWESOME AND TOUGH I AM!"

I hope this fucker has a blood clot the size of a White Castle burger speeding towards his brain right now.

Why can't we just directly link his Instagram posts then

He's a public figure

Because we'd just get reported for brigading then.

Not sure what Patrick think he's going to accomplish. If one place gets stomped out, another will pop up. You can't win, stupid.

Tell the Reddit faggots they can’t have 61 complaints from the last “few months” when this sub is 2 weeks old.

61 complaints in 2 weeks is a lot worse than a few months lol

I just noticed there are rules.

Talk about vague bullshit and a lawyer buffet. Let this cocksucker pay to fight then. Fucking faggot.
