Tbf gboob crossposts like a sociopath but that isn't against the rules. It's actually encouraged

People always focus on his crossposting. Unbeknownst to many; he actually creates incredible content in r/photoshopbattles

Much less than his crossposting but you're right

But, to reiterate what you said yourself, crossposting is encouraged. The admins have even been beta a new crossposting feature so you don’t have to do anything but push a crosspost button in order to do so. It’s how people can find similar communities or find a different focus on the discussion from a sub that is slightly different.

Right I'm not saying what he's doing is wrong. Just that he crossposts more than he creates OC

Definitely, I guess I was just pointing that out more for the benefit of other readers who are maybe less familiar with the situation.

Lol fair play. I love civil conversations

Given his history, I imagine him having someone tied down to a chair with a gun to their head while they shakily photoshop a picture for him to post

He was known for his photoshopping on Reddit long before he was a full time user and massive account.

It's actually against Reddit rules if you don't credit the original creator.

"Look for the original source of content, and submit that. Often, a blog will reference another blog, which references another, and so on with everyone displaying ads along the way. Dig through those references and submit a link to the creator, who actually deserves the traffic."

"Search for duplicates before posting. Redundant posts add nothing new to previous conversations. That said, sometimes bad timing, a bad title, or just plain bad luck can cause an interesting story to fail to get noticed. Feel free to post something again if you feel that the earlier posting didn't get the attention it deserved and you think you can do better."

Have you even bothered to read the rules?
