1. Notes: 89 / 9 months ago  from alexds1

    alexds1:

    Check to see if ComicPanda is posting your webcomic and taking your traffic without your permission

    Rather, comics are being posted to the site from other people. Still, as a site-owner, you’d think you’d want to check where your content is coming from. Evidently we can credit one Mr. Jim Smith the 0789th for his fine work on The Meek (and 4 other comics) (thanks to LightChasing for letting me know about this).

    If you have a comic, you ought to check that it’s on this site and ask them to take it down. I just sent them an email and will update here if/ when I hear back and what their response is, hopefully they will reply quickly. I’m glad they had a cool startup idea and yay Bay Area and all but for the love of god do not steal my shit to start your company! Also according to their info page their office is within lunchtime-driving distance from mine so they best be replying quickly before I feel inclined to get up in their face.

    5. lamesor said: Oh man, I’ve found a bunch of comics I follow on there. I hope they got their permission, because I’m not sure how they think it’s ok to host them there without permission. Nice of them to put the credit, but still it’s kind of rude.

      Hey guys, MAOH creators over here. As all of you guessed, they didn’t have our permission to post Minor Acts of Heroism....
