I'll set the scene:

Had an affiliation request from a new group thepokemonregion.deviantart.co… yesterday for my resource group, so added them to our own affiliation list and joined, added a few of my cards that I felt I liked the most including my favourite M Rayquaza.

Come back from work today to a message stating the following:
"All your submissions contain artwork that is not yours and used without permission. We do not promote nor support this. As such, you have been permanently removed from our group."

Not quite sure how my own Rayquaza art, as an example isn't my own art is beyond me (or my recent Mew card, Ancient Dunsparce, Tauros EX, Primal Kyogre, etc)... Sure the Tornadus EX was official art, but I do love that one myself and it was made years ago.

So now I am removed from the group without the ability to defend myself and this guy has blocked me as well. So yeah, join the group at your own peril; I'd suggest not though, but it's entirely up to you.

n.b... the affiliation with that group was terminated by myself instantly after reading FireFlea's message.

Omg, are you serious? :XD:

I did not block you (I'm a "girl" btw) so that's total crock, I'm afraid. Someone contacted the group stating your artwork was official and you did indeed try to submit with work that is not yours (your Tornadus EX card). The group rules clearly state that this is not allowed (so we can only assume that you did not read them). However, you could have very easily contacted me through note or message on my profile page as I have never blocked you and you could have politely sent me proof that it was your original artwork. Instead, you decided to post a journal for everyone to see and complain like a child? That's very immature and rather sad.

However, I believe it was a simple misunderstanding and I am more than willing to see examples of your own artwork! :) I can then re-invite you to the group and you can submit your original art without any worries. Just remember that anything with official art is not accepted. I am willing to rectify this issue and solve the problem. The rest is up to you now Rainbow Bullet - F2U!
