BadlyAnonymous

I found this journal from Novectors in my inbox recently,

I'll admit I don't fully understand the language used here, but I'd rather not leave my work up on the site, just in case it means what I think it means. So I'm removing everything from my gallery, which is now being posted (as mentioned in my last journal)
at badlyanonymous.tumblr.com (Almost everything that was here is already up there)
I still have zero intentions of deleting my account, so I'll still be around DA as much as I ever am.

So...I made a recent discovery in the DA submission terms, specifically this 3. License To Use Artist Materials which, as I understand it, gives DA blanket permission to use any of the photos/drawing/etc that I submit in whatever way they want...

(edit: i was informed today that the stories about submission terms being used by da to sell/distribute peoples art is total bs, but it wasn't the only consideration in moving...)

So I'm moving my gallery to a different site. I won't be deleting, I'll still be logging in every week or so, I just won't be posting pics here anymore. I'll post up the link to where all of it's going on my profile page (as well as here of course). From here on, all my stuff is going up on my tumblr  .

HEY, PLEASE READ THIS- ITS SERIOUSLY IMPORTANT
THE FATE OF YOUR INTERNET-LIFE IS AT STAKE!!!!!!
APPARENTLY THERE IS A HACKER ON DEVIANTART, CALLED 'LIFE OWNER'.....

TELL EVERYONE ON YOUR LIST BECAUSE IF SOMEBODY ON YOUR LIST ADDS HIM THEN YOU WILL GET HIM ON YOUR LIST. HE WILL FIGURE OUT YOUR ID COMPUTER ADDRESS, SO COPY AND PASTE THIS MESSAGE TO EVERYONE EVEN IF YOU DON'T CARE FOR THEM AND FAST BECAUSE IF HE HACKS THEIR EMAIL HE HACKS YOUR MAIL TOO (I think what it means by that is that he could assume the identity of your friends, and FOOL you into opening the letter since you think it's your friend that's sending it )!!...

Anyone using Internet mail such as Yahoo, Hotmail, AOL and so on. This information arrived this morning, Direct from both Microsoft and Norton. Please send it to everybody you know who has access to the Internet. You may receive an apparently harmless e-mail titled 'Mail Server Report'

If you open either file, a message will appear on your screen saying: 'It is too late now, your life is no longer beautiful.'

Subsequently you will LOSE EVERYTHING IN YOUR PC,

And the person who sent it to you will gain access to your name, e-mail and password.

This is a new virus which started to circulate on Saturday afternoon. AOL has already confirmed the severity, and the anti virus software's are not capable of destroying it .

The virus has been created by a hacker who calls himself 'life owner'..

PLEASE SEND A COPY OF THIS TO ALL

Remember, always be careful of messages you receive in email-don't open them unless you're 100% POSITIVE they're safe. If you have even the SLIGHTEST doubt, DON'T open it-DELETE it, it's the smart thing to do!


DO WHAT THE TOP SAYS. WARN EVERYONE OR YOU ARE ALL DOOMED!!!
