i thought it was a pretty good complaint as at least 10 of my friends have left due to the unclear rules and another 20 or so banned either from the marketplace or the galleries because they did what they always do....Post art.i am sorry you think i am having a tantrum....If you read it that way..i didnt mean it to come off like that..it is still very frustrating..but the facts remain...the majority of people i deal with here are unhappy (to say the least) with what this place is becoming ,,very prude in its nature, and it wasnt like this before..and you say "Why do you stay then?Its because of the friends we have made here and the fun that we have had here ..we would like it to continue to be a fun place to post art and learn...but having to guess or get permission every time we want to post Aiko or the girl or any character young and innocent is a pain in the ass..i have gone to other sites and i dont see much difference in their TOS ..it is just the way it is carried out...and yes i did get an appology,and i except that,thank you,but it was for a mistake made when i was notified,and took them 5 days to notice..and i didnt get a warning because it was a first time i had had any images removed(except for one along time ago when i didnt understand the TOS)and again that was a mistake..but i have at least 100 images in my gallery that are just as young looking and mostly naked and are done to be cute..but like most men i love young looking woman..NOT CHILDREN..(My wife still gets carded at 49 going to clubs)I have raised 6 girls and i know the difference and nothing would bother me more than to see children depicted this way..but these images that are being removed dont depict children..i have seen them..with my eyes..and in every case i have seen i have disagreed with the team..
Cliff dweller i have to agree with you, that guy is here to show off his intellegence..well i only have a 6th grade education..so i wont try an argue with him..as he is already sure that i am a baby just venting in my tantrum..i see the forum is just a fun place for many and i wouldnt want to spoil anyones fun..I am just an old hippy that sees people being treated unfairly (myself included)and would like to help..but i am not sure if saying anything here has really helped with the usual forum antics defusing it..
i even saw a picture that was removed from a contest here because the Zombies were nude..and they were just bones and dripping flesh,,no genitalia..i tell you,I laughed out loud at that one..
and i now understand why people stay away from the forums and i appologize to anyone who i might have offended over all of this...This is a Fantastic source of Frustration..
