Nah, being horny as a main character trait tends to have a negative influence on the amount of fanart a character receives.

Only if there's no character of the same tier relevance as the character mentioned. Shimoneta has proven that since back then, with Anna Nishikinomiya, the horniest female character in Shimoneta appearing 158 times here while the main female MC kajou_ayame with only 68 appearance.

"this shit."
What shit? I don't get it.

I'm not sure as well, but I think she's indicating you to drop and pretend you lost, like it's a wrestling match.
Either that, or it's a taunt, and it's meant to contrast with the very honorable "En garde, robe!" bubble above.

I did not give anyone permission to upload this illustration. I have already deleted the tweet, so please remove this illustration.

That’s why I dislike anyone casually sharing my illustrations. Even if you claim to own the artwork, some people assume that everyone else should just hand over everything, even if it doesn’t belong to them.

Then you hit the assholes leaking that content. That's fine. Going nuclear on fan artists is a surefire way to make yourself the bad buy.

It’s possible it wasn’t actually intentional on Saruei’s part (comment #2537420). I don’t care enough to look into it to verify it, but things like legal teams going farther than the client wanted are certainly possible.

However, what I don’t find plausible is that so many artists suddenly decided to have all of their art taken down (I thought it would be mostly her own art, but no, there are plenty others). We’re only supposed to ban posts according to the artists’ request, so fan art should be off-limits for official legal teams. Even if they send DMCAs for fanart, we don’t have an obligation to comply since they had no hand in their creation. That leads me to believe that the legal team somehow managed to strongarm those artists into submitting DMCAs.
