I know i'm going to get flamed for this, so before I state my oppinion, I want to make it clear that i am absolutely and completly neutral, I support both sites in entirety, I just want to the record to be straight.
That's not true, Kazul, who I personally met and I can vouch wasn't easy to get along with, was constantly fighting with Sonimon over petty things, and barely took his job seriously. Sonimon felt that he was the only updater contributing, so he told Toga that either he goes or Kazul goes. In the end, Toga decided that there was no moral way to let Kazul go, since he didn't technically do anything breaking any rules, and he DID update from time to time, so Sonimon left. Jus' like that.
Sonimon had been wanting to make his own site for a long time, he was going to do it whther or not he quit the DAD, this just happened to be a convenient time. As for little or No morals, that's a pretty damned unfair thing to say. I can only see two moral conflicting problems.
1. He 'copied' the format of the DAD
This is true, but he apologized, changed it, and all was forgiven.
2. He had a section in which artists whom he didn't know would have their work posted until they requested it taken down.
First and foremost, I'd like to remind you that the DAD itself has a section like that, or at least it used to, 'unknown artists', the only difference being that Sonimon put a large disclaimer that if an artist wanted the work down, he would take the work down, and he was true to his word at that.
He was criticized for using Karabiner's work, truth is, he didn't know who Karabiner was until at least a month or two after the whole thing, when the guy Emailed him telling him to take it the hell down. (Don't say it's cock and bull, Sonimon can be an ignorant slut)
Considering he's very fair with his rules, freindly to his contributors, and would never disrespect the wishes of any author or artist, i'd say it's very unfair to say his site has no morals.
There, the record is straight. May n oone think any less of me for my oppinion, like I said, I support both sites, I love Toashi and I love Sonimon. I'm kinda like Budha that way... I think.... Ah well....[/quote]

Quote:not to rag on that way of thinking but he went childishly off on his own and made a site with little or no morals
