Well... I don't know how pissed I should feel about this
9 years ago
Please be sure to read everything, every detail is important:
Edit: Well, I am no longer pissed about it :L, maybe still a little salty, but not angry. (beware slugs and snails)
If you have been watching me for a while or have looked in my scraps folder, you would know that I have some Dank Memes (not really) in there focusing on Pokemon GO and joking off of some of it's problems, starting with the well known server issues near launch, so some of the games' more inner problems, such as repetitive pokemon species spawning, all of which were not to be taken seriously and as a joke to let people laugh at somewhat commonly agreed upon "problems" the game features.
One of these has been removed from my scraps folder, and for those that did not notice it, it was the one with the Dawson's Creek Sad Face meme with captions that somewhat held these words:
Top: I decided to play Pokemon GO after a hard day of work
Bottom: But my battery was left at 15% after only 10 minutes
The reason for this deletion was because (according to whatever system or group of people scan for this purpose) it violated point 2.5 of the "Acceptable Upload Policy" which basically states that any work that I post on my user page that was not made by or for me must credit the original artist.
Now, I would understand if FA deleted this pic because I did not credit the website used to create the meme, but then I run into 3 personal problems:
1) The idea of the meme, along with the time and effort to make the meme, came from me thereby making me the creator and using the cite as a catalyst for making it. If it does not belong to me, then it does not belong to a specific person but rather the general public, leaving me with nobody left to credit, either way, if it belongs to me or not, I should not have to credit anybody.
2) My other memes in the scrap folder are still there. What, are they special in some why or something? 2 of which came DAYS before this one and the other came literal minutes after the one that got deleted.
3) Artists don't have to credit software or program they used to make their picture/comics/ whatever, and writers do not need to credit Word, or any other document format/ program... why should I have to credit the site whose program is free to use to the public. Yes I used you, but like I stated in #1, I had the idea, I took the time to make it, I should be credited with making it.
Another possible thing could be that someone came by and saw the picture and funnily enough made a similar meme, whether they used the same background or same text or some combination of both. This possible reason is extremely unlikely, but I will still address it. If you look in the description of the pictures, each will say at some point that I MADE THE MEME... and I did not lie there. The time would have been spent playing Pokemon GO, but since I could not spend my time for that purpose, I decided to use that now spare time to create a light-hearted joke meme for you, my watchers as some means of thanks and to hopefully make you laugh.
Now, to avoid any other dumb conflicts, I am not going to send a complaint (mainly because I do not think it will do anything) and rather I will just repost the picture with this extra mention that I have added to the descriptions of the other memes in the scraps folder:
Note: This specific image was made by me at https://imgflip.com/memegenerator
If this meme bears a striking resemblance to one of yours, I assure you this was made directly by me on this cite.
Also, because this made me feel so oddly frustrated in a way that I felt really pissed off yet still couldn't care less, I will be making an additional meme, and to give you guys a head start, it will have something to do with comparing FA to the problem YouTube users have been having for some time now.
If you think I am missing something and am going completely out of line, please do not hesitate to tell me. Everyone has their faults from time to time, and I could be missing something very important. So please, if this is the case, please tell me to stop being an ass. I'll love you for it~ :)
IMPORTANT!!!
Apologies, it was section 2.6 that was violated, but literally nothing else changed because this is what the message told me I violated:
“Acceptable Upload Policy: Section 2.6 - Content that was neither made by nor for the uploader is prohibited, unless part of a derivative work (See Section 2.5 for more information).”
... yes I see... I STILL MADE IT!

Maybe because you didn't take/create the image? Puppy is not sure how it goes but when you add a caption it doesn't make it your picture. Else you could steal like every picture. Of course puppy could be wrong this is was just a random idea that popped into his head.
Just smile and look forward, and if you need cuddles there is a cuddly puppy right in front of you.
