Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Limit of two posts per person per day.
- Bots aren't allowed.
- Banned users will have their posts removed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Thanks. That's quite the extreme take, I get not wanting a crappy watermark across the whole comic. But a subtle signature, or small panel with their name should be fine.
If they erase social links, that's still crappy but more understandable.
If they really believe the image it self shouldn't have a credit, then they should put the credit in the post description. They could use a spoiler, so it's up the individual if they want to be "advertised" to.
Artist Credit
beetlemosesThe OP has stated that they won't consistently attribute sources, even in the way you suggest, until the community implements the rule they want enforcing that users strip attribution out: https://lemmus.org/comment/17161116
They don't deserve your benefit of the doubt, unfortunately.
Wow, what a loony. Must have gotten on the wrong end of his high horse.
