Rules:
- 1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

MODERATORS
I mean, I don't blame them for protecting their IP, they just picked a super shitty way to do it.
I don't even think they would have needed an official cease and desist... just a friendly note of "Hey, none of this Funko material is licensed, please remove it."
I blame them. Fair use is a thing and even beside fair use fuck em. copyright are getting more and more stupid by the day.
It's not fair use to use images and names you have not licensed.

Buddy I'm going to 3d print some funko pops just to fuck with em.
Stop being a bootlicker bootlicker.
I'm sure your multi-million dollar company really appreciates being defended by some rando on a super niche site
