Arch Mage Chapter 37 is Flagged and Hidden (Patreon)

Content

For the crime of Harry and Daphne getting to second base in their relationship, Patreon has declared Chapter 37 in violation of guidelines and has hidden it from everyone until they review my edits!

It's complete bullshit, but I have no choice but to edit it and wait for 1 to 3 business days for Patreon to decide if it can be shown on the site again.

I apologize to everyone that was looking forward to the update, but it's out of my hands right now.

Hopefully, everyone can read the chapter soon.

LOL. LMAO even.

Jerry YouSpoonyBard1

OH THAT's what happened! I saw the email and has just now sat down to read it and thought I was going crazy.

Aj Probstfeld

Wow Harry and Daphne got red carded by patreon

QuazarKMax

I did wonder why I couldn’t see it instantly after uploading. Patreon removing it makes sense good luck Kai

georgez28

If you need to I've seen lots of authors moving to share a Google docs link for any more adult chapters. This seems to help them avoid being flagged but people can still access it.

coffeejelly97

Wow thats honestly such bs. There are many other stories on Patreon with straight up sex in them and they dont catch those but they catch this? Annoying. Will the scene still be there in the ao3 whenever that is uploaded?

DanielJ27

It does suck but as long as it is unchanged on A03 then it will be okay

Justin Moore

If this happens again you could post a link with a Google drive or something similar instead of editing it

James

Dick move, Patreon. I managed to read it before it came down, and there was nothing extreme about it. I've certainly ready Harry getting up to a lot steamier action than that on this site. Btw, the book title, Necrotic Arts. Necrotic literally means 'dead tissue', it's decay, the opposite of what Voldemort wants. Necromantic technically is only about conjuring and communing with the dead for divination, but it's been co-opted by fantasy to mean all magic related to death, and those who create zombies/undead/etc, so Necromantic Arts would make more sense.

Btw, it was a great chapter. Some quite sweet character moments and relationship progression.

Kairomaru

It's just a pian in the ass for them to do this for their guidelines which keep getting more and more strict.

Captain Hair

Ugh. At this rate everyone's just gonna have to post Google links and pdfs/epubs.

Johann Tan

Put it in a google doc and drop a link.

Kairomaru
>>168225640

Total bullshit, yes. It's because THOSE stories don't have teenagers being teenagers. The second that a character is labeled as being 18, Patreon's Guidelines barley apply to the content at all. But if they're younger, you basically can't write them progressing a relationship at all.

Kairomaru
>>168225640

Yes, the scene will be in the AO3 version because you can post what you want there.

striker James

I AGREE THIS IS BS but I think this probably happened cause HARRY POTTER had real people actors in movie wile other works such as danmachi for example could be said are a drawing or CGI thus no problem but people over reacts anytime anything is implied if related to people in real life

Codeninja676 (Brian)

Yeah they've been very strict about the no u18 touchy touchy stuff recently, may want to cut down on the lewds if they are already monitoring your stuff. They've completely shut down bigger accounts due to it unless you link the spicy stuff to an external site, so long as it ain't hosted here they don't care too much.

Kairomaru
>>168225776

Glad you liked it! Yeah, the book is named not for its definition of words, but because of 'flair' that Wizards are known for in Harry Potter. lol

Kairomaru
>>168225700

Because in my other fics all the characters are 18, I guess? Or maybe there's another reason that Patreon's excessive Guidelines cover.

DanielJ27
>>168225700

That was my original comment my revamped one is as long as it is on A03 then hopefully it will be okay.

Kairomaru
>>168226083

It's strangling some of their 18+ Creators and they'll eventually force a lot more people out if they don't calm down on some of this.

Aroking

@Kairomaru. About your comment "It's because THOSE stories don't have teenagers being teenagers. The second that a character is labeled as being 18, Patreon's Guidelines barley apply to the content at all. But if they're younger, you basically can't write them progressing a relationship at all." I have seen plenty of stories on this site where the characters are around 16 or so and have plenty of straight up R-18 stuff. It was about Anime though. So maybe since HP was made into movies with real characters so the guidelines are more strict. But then again, I have seen HP stories with R-18 content on this site too. So maybe this is a recent thing. I really hope this gets resolved soon as your stories are amazing.

possibly, but his DXD fic has had the same problem and as far as i'm aware, those have always been fictional only

The Masked Newfag

Bada da dai Bada da dooba Doo doodlootdootdoodoot BAYAH!

apologies if im misunderstanding, but couldnt you just do a new post with the pdf/drive link and leave the current one in limbo? or does patreon keep an eye out for repeat postings in different formats?

Delphinous

quite frustrating, but i understand that it's not anything you have control over.

Mr. Khaos

I personally don't understand Patreon stand honestly. Teenagers being Teenagers? Oh the humanity we must protect the non-existence children! Characters 18+ getting struggled snuggles in every which way possible with necrophilia and gore added? A-OK! Honestly they should be more respectful to the creators who idk are literally the reason this site exists.

DALucifer
>>168225761

Fair. Might be worth thinking about moving to subscribestar if this keeps happening

Matthew Williams

Might be worth exploring SubscribeStar, RoyalRoad, and other platforms as possible Alternates in case it gets worse here.

darknexx97848

It still impresses me how much they attack fanfics when there are accounts that have NSFW as their whole shtick with animations and art and do nothing about them 🤦🏻

Heroville111

I can still read it??

darknexx97848
>>168229402

Btw if I use the notification, I can still read it so they are not really doing a great job hiding it xD

Neko

By Merlin's hairy beard!! What is that for nonsense!! Exactly what Darknexx said, why picking you for violating their so called rules!! Honestly, your stories are one of the bests with good plots, nice growing characters and correct many characters to a more likeable ones. I was like, yes...UPDATE!! Lets start the show!! I hope you get back soon and they punish the evildoers who actually commit a crime!! Hope to read chapter 37 soon and what kind of chaos you brought to the Yule ball

Neko
>>168230437

Its probably an excuse for Patreon to read your stories before anyone else :P Charge them for 'Reviewing your chapter 37'

Hooshu

Might be better to just host the chapters on Google Docs or something and just give the link to the doc instead of the chapter itself.

Ryusui23

Some people use Google doc links like someone said on the comment for their chapters if they are putting M rated scenes

David Zimmerle

I feel like they’ve been cracking down on this stuff a lot more lately.

Ty'Ree Gary

That’s insane man

Callum Runchman

Are you gonna post the unedited version anywhere else like a Google docs or something the people can access with a link?

Neko

Those people and their so called guidelines probably never had a childhood romance, probably being single their wgole life. Give us the promised chapter back and perhaps you can learn something from it

Captain Hair

Obviously Patreon is unimpressed with second base and thinks you should swing for the fences.

David Beltran

I hope you doing okay after this my friend, hope this mess gets sorted out, take care and thank you for your work it helps me get by when my days are going bad

J T

Put a disclaimer up at the beginning of the chapter that all characters are 18 years and older and the chapter is not suitable to underage people. That is what a lot of authors on here are doing to get around that.

Lutze2110

Be careful buddy. Put a disclaimer on the chapters, worst case is that patreon deletes your account

Ironcoil

The disclaimer is a great option, another way resolved the issue to to no longer post the chapter as text in Patreon but to post an excerpt but have the full chapter linked as an .epub or similar.

Kairomaru
>>168239745

Thank you, it's nice to know that my stories help you out on the rough days.

Jamie Celtic

Seems to be happening to a lot of authors lately some have been posting googledoc links and pdf and doc files instead to get around this absurd censorship, hope your weeks going well apart from this hiccup

Mad Hatter

There’s no second base in Quidditch! Seriously, they’re serious about their censorship. Mrs. Umbridge approves.

Kairomaru
>>168300044

Yeah, sorry about the wait to read the chapter, I can't do anything about it right now.

Ryusui23

Is there any update being sent to you about it being cleared up?

Neko
>>168303137

Awh man, sad to hear hopefully they will let you show it soon. They probably have some ai that see a few keywords and judge it, Ultron much. Well, can only pray that tomorrow will be fixed and I and many others can continue enjoying Harry travelling.

The_Slave_Knight

Wow...that's really fucking dumb. I'm subbed to Patreon writers who write full on sex scenes in their works an Patreon has been fine (not smut, but like, a lemon scene in a chapter). This is so fucking *dumb*. Ahh well man, I hope to read the new chapter soon. (If you still want to post the unedited version, you can post a link to the google doc, after making it so no-one can edit it, that way we can read it there, and there's no issue. Just an idea)

Arcfield

Wow they’re amazing fucking dumb for this action cuz there are people of this site that make porn on it but when it’s in writing they make a fuss about it but it is what it is and knowing corpos they’ll look at the edit with bare minimum looks and say “ this still breaks OUR TC try again hehe~” but I look forward for this chapter when those cunts let it out

Neko

Hi kairo, have you perhaps heard anything about the situation for chap 37? I hope that this will be only once happening. Good luck and looking forward to good news

Putte90

You could put it on google docks and share it here via link

DJ Johnson

I say make a google doc and make us all viewers cuz fuck censorship and changing it to please the platform. Up to you though i'll read and enjoy whatever you drop ;).

Pedro Burgos

Any other options to read the chapter?

Kairomaru
>>168532025

Working on another update at the moment, will try to do something about Arch Mage after that.

Racenrise

Any news about this chapter?

Kairomaru
>>168549294

Still nothing yet... I'll try to do something to let people read it soon if I don't hear anything from Patreon.

Earl Alsobrook
>>168549294

If you're able to then post it as a pdf or some kind of text file from like Google doc

Earl Alsobrook
>>168549294

Well I hope that you find out wats going on soon so that everyone here can check out the new chapter and I'd also like to say that I absolutely love your stories and you do amazing work

Racenrise
>>168549294

Thank you for solving that problem so quickly, i know it’s probably super annoying and not your fault at all.
