For this thread, we are going to operate under two assumptions:
1) Nanamine has no role in the writing of the story. He just takes the ideas his internet group decides on and draws them. (This seems unlikely because the group isn't writing a script, just coming up with ideas, but thats beside the point for this thread)
2) If he gets help in drawing, it is not more than he would get from assistants.
If we assume those to be true, how is Nanamine any different than Mashiro/Nakai/Eiji (for +Natural)? He is an artist drawing a manga from a script. Mashiro/Nakai/Eiji (for +Natural) aren't vilified by the people on this forum as cheaters because they have someone else write the series. Is it because Nanamine portrays his series as being written/drawn by a single person? Ashirogi Muto is a pen name which gives the impression that it is done by one person. (Hence Eiji's surprise/comment about how that explains why their work is so multi-layered.)
I get the feeling that people disliked his promotional methods (which were absolutely brilliant) and thus are predisposed to feel negatively against him in all regards.
