For furries: why the Bernal hate?

[eric_hinkle]

For a few years now, every time I see the name of Jeremy Bernal mentioned online, it's typically either preceded or followed by curses and denunciations.

Why?Because the man defends his artwork? Because he will use lawyers to force art thieves to stop ripping him off? Because he doesn't give it away for nothing? Or is there something else that

A) Who is Bernal?
B) Who is Sibe?

Jeremy Bernal is a talented artist who owns SexyFur.com. He is very VERY strict about people posting his work the imageboards (like on the chans, LULZ, etc), and he defends his copyright like woah. I like that he does that; I've purchased a pass from SexyFur, and it was *really* good quality work.

Sibe is like, the polar opposite of Bernal.

http://encyclopediadramatica.com/Sibe (possibly NSFW, since it IS ED) There used to be more on his ED page, but it looks like it's been bawwwwleted. :( Sibe is also notorious for doing a lot of really awful things to fellow furs.

Really? How? I've tried buying a brief membership with a prepaid debit card, but it didn't work.

And I agree about his level of quality. Even if you don't like erotica, his skill is breath-taking.

Yeah, I'm not sure how prepaid debit cards work. What about PayPal? I think he accepts that.

SexyFur was *well* worth the money, if you ask me. There were a virtual TON of images... some by other artists, and some of which I didn't care for, but holy crap, NICE works. o_O Even the fetishy stuff (that I don't normally go for) was beautiful.

I don't think he takes PayPal, since PayPal's TOS doesn't allow you to use it to pay for adult content of any sort.
