Trust & Safety team came back again X)... (Patreon)
Content
Hello, thank you to all of you who support us through Patreon. And I apologize for any inconvenience caused by the page outage.
Yes.. I'm finally released.. XD
Mmm... I guess I was making a big mistake. The way I was uploading was completely flawed by their standards.

Per our guidelines, creators must demonstrate consent between adult participants or characters in all Adult/18+ works; specifically, a freely given, specific, informed, and unambiguous indication of consent by a statement or by a clear affirmative action. Additionally, participants and characters must be able to give consent (i.e. not be under the influence of alcohol, drugs, hypnosis, blackmail).
We do understand BDSM may display scenes where the character appears to be in distress where, for instance, there is a power relationship that dictates the character’s behavior although they are not being forced to participate in it. However, when it comes to sexual violence there can be no ambiguity, and stating/ adding a disclaimer that an interaction is taking place within this realm is not sufficient. It must be perceptible by the reader/viewer that the characters are consenting to the event taking place, not because they have no choice but because they so choose. The choice must be clear.

By that definition, the image should contain statements like: "Oh, I really like this!", "I agree with what you're doing. We agreed on something, didn't we?", "Your taste is really unique."
Um.. yes. I haven't had any 'dialogue' about the situation in any of my images so far. And that post includes all the previews, Monthly pack, WIP, Poll, Roulette, and Winner posts that have been posted so far. Almost every post I've uploaded since 5 years ago is like that.
So, I had no choice but to take special measures. I cleaned up most of them.. Because it's not realistically possible to add that dialog to every preview image I've uploaded in 5 years, right?
I think you can assume that all the posts that were removed were in violation of the guidelines. It might be fun to check that out. There are only about 300 left haha..
I think the upload method will change again from now on. Hmm.. maybe... my Patreon will now only feature my normal drawings or I don't think any posts containing images I've drawn will ever be uploaded. Like the posting will act as an alarm, and sometimes it will have a function to come and write a comment or something.
All meaningful short stories are backed up in the link!
I'm sorry for the inconvenience caused twice already this year.. T vT
