once I followed a jap artist on pixiv, saved some of their stuff then fell asleep intending to save the rest later. when I woke up and refreshed the tab I'd left open, half their gallery was suddenly gone.

It's not about talent.
If a well known youtuber started over, they would more than likely gain a sizable following simply because they know how to play the system and garner views or likes.

yup, too many galleries are lost forever.

Sometimes they'll upload some of their old shit, but it's never all of them. Especially if they are a good sketch/WIP artist, those are always gone forever.

Yeah, I don't get it. The complaint was about "fans" and "reposting", so it didn't sound like anyone was trying to pass off her art as their own or anything like that, just fans sharing pics like normal. I remember seeing the usual warnings about unauthorized copyingof thecontents and such on the official sites of her games,I guess she was really serious about it. All her earlier games are translated too and she mostly seems to post art related to her games, so the only explanation I see is that the dev became irrationally paranoid over some fans reposting promos and stuff or she's not giving the real reason.
