I know this is the free country of fred, but whats with all the pokemon?!

Obviously, everyone has the right to post whatever they want on channel frederator (within reason i guess), but the 'Artwork' section is being totally flooded with pictures of the same pokemon character. I have nothing against pokemon, or the person/persons posting them, but its getting beyond a joke, i'd like to think i wasn't the only person finding this a bit annoying?
I love the fact that fred creates a great creative hub- it's nice to see other artists work and give and receive feedback, i just feel this is being a bit spoiled by the over posting of materials that are not original artworks, and are instead just pasted in off a google search?!

What do you think?

You were that annoying kid who only posted Pokemon who ticked everyone off, got blocked, and then went back on the raw site and ticked us off some more. You didn't seem to get a clue, did ya?...I swear I'm doing to punch you in your poke-balls!" lol; ▶ Reply to This

It's pretty annoying when I want to check out the latest artwork and I have to sift through countless pictures of an otter pokemon. And believe you me, I am a true fan of pokemon if there ever was one, but this really isn't the place for that. Maybe this person should get a flicker account or a facebook page to share his buizel obsession. I understand that we all have our influences and we like to share them, but this is getting out of hand.; ▶ Reply to This

At first, it was unclear whether this person was just an over exuberant young fan, but when it became obvious he was merely troublesome, he went bye-bye.

Sorry to everyone for the experience.; ▶ Reply to This
