I would have been willing to change my mind about a trace or two, but not after the person actually said "I've never traced anything!" when they obviously have.
I actually wonder what they will respond with now that a bunch of "his/her art" was shown as traced... a part of me thinks we might never see a post from the person again. (Which wouldn't bother me in the slightest, it partially ruined the thread for me because it increased the amount of people asking for art... not that it's bad to request art but they could just make another thread for that)
