All you need is Distill to compete with fast uploaders.

Distill? Give up, you mean? I see...that solution isn't bad.
Oh, I got downvoted. Not like I care though.

Why giving up?
More precisely: What giving up?

Here's a better question. What does it matter who uploads what, so long as it gets uploaded in the first place?

You don't know how toxic the current uploading system currently be. The old grows stronger, and the young grows withered and die.

well, not like I want you to understand.

Well, it does help for achieving self-satisfaction etc.
Well, I also do upload stuff fast but mostly because I want to store the versions before an artist deletes or revises their posts on Pixiv.
Hiding the uploader's name, since this seem to agitate Ne Obliviscaris might not be the best solution, either. Sure, you don't get angry at Randeel or me or whoever, but you still didn't upload the image.
So I actually don't know what he complains about, too :P.

I personally prefer to be the one that uploads the works of daily artists I translate, since it just becomes a part of my routine to do so. Having a consistent tagger and translator also means there's a consistent set of conventions being used in a series. That doesn't really apply outside of the webcomics, though...

For someone who is trying to attain builder status, or just wants to outweigh some recent deletions, then artists that put out high-quality work that will be essentially guaranteed to be approved are valuable sources for improving your user stats... although that also doesn't matter when the user in question is already "unlimited uploads" status.

Probably, then, Ne Obliviscaris is someone who was following this artist to try to upload some of these works, only to routinely be beaten to the upload, and is just plain frustrated by it.

I don't know if you're serious, but all of us (including Randeel) save for very few exceptions use Distill to monitor webpage changes. Unless you have an extremely bad connection there's no way you can't run this extension. And even then there's other alternatives like querying pixiv's api with a very basic self-written python script (which is what I went for).

I browse on a 300 kb/s DL & 20 kb/s UL connection and yet I still manage to regularly upload pool:curated content at pixiv rush hour. If you want to survive as a top uploader you have to adapt. Crying over others' uploads is not going to help you.

Thanks for the tips, but enough is enough, sorry.
Good bye.

So you let it be decided by one user?
Well, that is quite a bummer then, but if you think you get happy with that: Go ahead. I won't stop you.
But it could also be a chance to turn the tables and compete with Randeel. It will require some time and effort, though.
I think I need to tell you this, though: You shouldn't let your "fate" be decided by one user. Maybe the user is omnipresent regarding this copyright, but there are still posts that you might want to drag away.
Have you by the way ever talked to Randeel about this topic. Maybe it is better to complain at him directly instead of writing a salty comment under a post and I'm honest here: I could have gotten it, but I let another user upload it. So it's not like Randeel is always the fastest user.

Talking to him is useless. His obsession with Touhou can tell you why.
Well yes, there are another copyrights but sadly, I'm struggling too. There are users other than randeel that uploads in matter of seconds, correct? Like you, for example.

Honestly, in the first place I'm uploading here just for fun. But now, it grews shittier so fast and I'm began to be affected by it. Better stop as quickly as I can.
