The big reason for the DHZ existing was a split from our site a while back for various reasons. This is one of the larger conflicts:
The reason it became far more popular was the large amount of content. Chibi Renamon and I decided a while back that we were not going to be hosting any ill-gotten artwork. We removed the japanese mangas and other various artwork that we had no claims to. A lot of it is published by people that really are just trying to make a living selling their art, or have no clue that it was even taken in the first place.
The DaD was founded to let anyone post their art and lemons. I tried to always accomadate everyone. Posting art just for the sake of content is selfish. I really no longer have any real say in it, but I would strongly encourage content from sources that have not given permission not be posted.
