teedeesquared whispered:Alright, so you're basically a Phandom police, which is great, don't get me wrong. My posts were reposted too but here's a thing - I usually contacted reposter myself and we both agreed on deleting a post and no hard feelings afterwards.. Your way seems more judgmental, plus it doesn't protect the reporter, it's visible who was that one who snitched on reposter. I think your idea is good but probably should be more anonymous even towards reposters, you can't take justice in your hands
Thank you for your input. Yes, the creator contacting the reposter is much easier since there is no need for a third party but not everyone spots reposters and that is the entire idea behind this blog; acting as a third party to aid people in preventing reposting.
I do agree, that it would be much better if the reporter is anonymous and I’d like to thank you for that because I myself didn’t consider that fact until you brought it up to light although I can’t see how it is judgmental? We are merely giving out information to both the creator and reposter although I may have misunderstood you.
Anonymous whispered:wait so using other phan gifs in a text post counts as reposting? bc like, i have a phan gif folder that i use for reaction gifs and such and i didnt know that counted (also there's that new gif in the text feature that tumblr added yesterday)
Ah unfortunately yes, if you use it in the context of garnering notes. Using the new feature on Tumblr however is fine because there is a source there and the person who made the gif is notified of it’s usage.

We are the Phandom Black List, a group of people ( we are really only two people at this point in time ) that really dislike reposters because it is unfair to the original poster, seeing as their work that they put up onto the interwebs for free was stolen.
We track down reposters and ask them to take down reposted works when reports are sent our way. Failing to do so results in their username being on the blacklist alongside the stolen post and original post. The same course of action will also follow through when we spot reposts that have not been sent to us via report.
We’ve seen more reposts that we can count and it angers us that people steal content and claim it as their own, even when the original creators specifically tell them NOT to repost. The idea of having a Phandom Black List suddenly struck as a brilliant idea and that was how this blog was created.

Also as we have received quite a lot of questions regarding what a username is and what is the difference between a username and a URL, I thought that I should address this here.
Take the phandomblacklist for example. Our username is phandomblacklist while the URL is http://phandomblacklist.co.vu.
