By codeine, 2 years ago
I like how the admins and staff get to pick and choose what rules they enforce and who they enforce them on haha

Pretty sure it's more the communities fault
Y'know, for never reporting things.

If you're getting lots of stuff removed, then someone's jealous of you and reporting all your shit

Oh trust me, i'm sure A LOT of people report stuff. The thing is - the more someone is famous, the less likely it's that anything will be done about it.
Some time ago, one of very popular artists made naughty image of character that is a cub/loli, and posted it on FA. They also posted it on inkbunny, and TAGGED it as cub/loli, so the artist itself admited it's underage character.
Was the picture taken down? Nope. Even tho a lot of people commented about it, some even made journals, and even more probably reported it.
But the artist is a friend of FA's owner. Explains everything.

And i know of another case where a popular artist did get "cub" taken down. It wasn't even technically cub, just an unfortunately stylized chibi. 25'000+ watchers.
Heard of that case of course, it was very borderline, you could argue for hours if its cub or not. (people have, lol, so much drama over that case)
In very borderline cases theres never really a "correct" case of action, so its down to flip of a coin pretty much.

And at least from my personal testing, i have found very little things actually get reported. Anything i have reported gets delt with within 24hrs, and nothing of similar content gets taken down without me reporting it. Then again, ive only really ever tried out the TT system a few times, just to see how it works, and i never have reported "borderline" content. Also evidence of nothing being reported, all these journals of artists saying they are being "singled out" when their content gets nuked, and no-one elses. But thats just my personal testing, not saying its fact ofc.

I got banned for a week because of a drawing I did 3 years ago. One version of the drawing, I had photographed head on, was acceptable, and still in my gallery, the other I'd inadvertently taken at a slight angle, which somehow made it cub porn, when I tried to appeal the situation they basically said tough luck.
Then there is this

That's the character I'm talking about.
The artist made porn with similiar underage character and posted on fa. Yet nothing was done with it, because they're dragoneer's friend

Tags on ib say this character is cub/loli, and her bio says she's 5th grader. It's pretty obvious it's straight up underage character, and not just flat and petite girl.
Popular artists do have their stuff taken off. But it's rare.
And people who are friends with admins have special treatment, and can do anything they want. Even admins themselves seem to not care about the rules sometimes.
There is a rule that says that posting reminders is not allowed.
Yet, certain admin, director of operations ignored this rule multiple times.

thats also an add for an adult game, dont you have to rate your submissions based off the content of the links in the description?

thats why i have to mark my stream banner as adult even tho it's only mature (technically general but unlike most i count panties as a mature thing)

That's pretty much how most mods and admins work. They only enforce rules that are clearly set in place when they feel like it. And usually the only time they feel like it is when you just so happen to be conveniently present at the time and break that rule. Everyone else gets off scotfree. I was once banned from a chatroom for getting into an argument with a mod in it who just disagreed with an opinion of mine and thus, began to insult my intelligence. I insulted her back and another mod immediately banned me.

It's great how mods and admins like to abuse their powers.

Sound like minecraft before rat kids (sorry i know they have another name up in the north, squakers or something XD) the admins acted like pricks (or trolls) and THEN banned you...

once a mod traped me in bedrock and then tosed lava over me, AND THEN gave OP weapons to some trolls to kill me, when i asked them to stop, another mod called me fag and banned me XD

its a few things, timezones..sometimes mods are assholes, other times they dont enforce other things out of lazyness, sometimes they just blatently dont see things because theres so much shit to sift through

"The artist did not specifically say it's child porn therefore it's not child porn."
Even though the characters look EXACTLY LIKE CHILDREN. This has been said to me twice now when reporting blatant cub porn.
Honestly, "style" shouldn't be an excuse. If it looks underage you should treat it like it's underage, since it still sexualizes underage bodies. Seriously.

How can you even make that judgment in some styles though? It's entirely subjective
  grumpmonster

#link     Posted: 2 years ago

 
No...? Children have specific anatomical differences compared to adults - particularly in the face. This is true of ALL species.
If you're drawing porn of a small flat-chested female, or a small male with a tiny penis and a child or cub-like face - you're sexualizing the features of children.
If you can't draw porn of characters that LOOK like adults, maybe you should practice until you CAN draw characters that look like adults.

mhm this though. theres a difference between bipedal art and blatantly looking like a child ( maybe thats what the user above meant with styles) such as melissar1 has her OC murr that is usually drawn without boobs but is obviously an adult and has bipedal features, im surry if youre drawing an anthro with distinct child features then thats cub. end of, and it should be removed because child porn is extremely illegal, cartoon or real. having it on your computer is sillegal. so even though its an image it poses extreme complications and admins shouldnt ignore this at all.

Well, while drawn/written child porn is illegal here in good 'ol Canada, and the UK/Australia I believe (if it looks like a child it's considered child porn, human or no), it's surprisingly... not completely illegal in the US or other countries. HOWEVER, since FA has rules that child/cub porn isn't allowed, they should take the initiative to realize that YES, it IS cub porn, and should remove it.

I have seen ALOT of artists post reminders and never get reported or warnings from FA staff. Me? I can't post reminders anymore because when I do I get busted. It really makes it hard to advertise.

Ikr?? And when i asked why others can post reminders all day everyday i get back "well they must have slightly edited the image, so now it's different." Bull. Crap. They never do...

Ye... And what's the funniest is - at least one of the main admins posts reminders all the time too. That's just FA's administration for you. 100% unprofessional

Staff here don't give a fuck, that's been clear for years. TT'd a comic that's been being uploaded here about a kid being raped, including while in a foster home.. person doing the ticket said they had no proof the kid was underage n closed the ticket because the artist said "They're in a foster home and such but they're legal age~"

I've been given more than one strike against my account for breaking rules that aren't in the rules. they literally tell me what rule I broke, and I have to write them back explaining that the rule they cited wasn't actually broken in any way. some time later I get a response from a responsible admin saying I was right, but guess what? I still have the strikes

FA staff are like the United States Congress. They don't follow the rules, make their own, do useless updates, or just do nothing at all.
