It's hypocritical to get rid of this person's post while other posts that are as accusatory as the quoted remain.

Giving credit to the artist does not completely absolve someone from the wrongs associated with using their art. Any difference in how much more moral one is over the other is negligible because the outcome is the same, doesn't help anyone, and serves to attack people using something for noncommercial purposes.

Instead of making a stand against those who use AI art for rp, it's more productive to look at the huge focus on aesthetics in this community. Cause at the end of the day, the rpers who use AI art just want to write too. If graphics weren't such a huge component of the hobby, then none of us would be using fanart or AI art as prominently.

Although, I think a lot of us like looking at pretty art, so we're not willing to sacrifice that for the even higher moral ground of not using any images.

Aesthetics in my argument is different than something causing accessibility issues (e.g. low contrast or being too bright) btw.
