Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.

The rules are simple:

As the title.

Should there be a new rule added where intentional removal of credits and watermarks from other peoples works be deleted?

Only thing i can think against it is if the original artist isn't known. Usually someone in the comments finds it though

Just say that if it doesn’t have a watermark the poster has to provide a link to the original.

That's perfectly logical, and I agree entirely.

The issue lies in the problem user OP is trying to address with this rule. Beep has stated that they won't consistently attribute sources until the community implements the rule they want enforcing that users strip attribution out of the image itself: https://lemmus.org/comment/17161116

Hooray dumb internet drama!
