Art theft and tracing posts have always been allowed in artists_beware up until now. This poll is so everyone can decide if they want it to stay that way, or if we should change that aspect of AB.
Also understand that even if the community picks 'no', it is up to our discretion if we feel a particular incident is extreme enough and would substantially benefit from being put to the attention of the AB membership.
Should tracing/art theft posts continue to be allowed in Artists_Beware?
Yes, I like it as it is!
241(40.3%)
Yes, but only if the person is taking commissions/trades using traced work.
227(38.0%)
Yes, but only if there is an exceedingly high number of traces or a long history of tracing AND the person is taking commissions/trades using traced work.

No, that's what art_theft is for, AB should focus on the rest and let AT have ALL the tracing/art theft posts.
