I kind of saw it coming. First they asked me for model releases from the people depicted in my manips, claiming that someone had complained about the unauthorized use of their likeliness. The pieces they picked on happened to include a couple where the main figures were fellow Deviants who had encouraged me to use their images, so I could only assume that it was a member of the supporting cast who had complained. And the supporting cast in these cases, incidentally, consisted of a group of ISIS Jihadists and a bunch of black bears.
Then, of course, the Great Purge began, and almost every day I saw another artist I had been watching and talking to regularly getting a line of death stricken through their ID, sometimes more than one a day. And yes, they started with those who specialize in hanging and cannibalism, and now they have moved on to Crux artists, like
@bobinder,
@algabal and
@Madiosi. Since my pix covered all of these subfields, I'm actually slightly surprised that they waited this long.
Well, I guess I might be spending more time here from now on. Past experienced has shown that I can keep up with one social medium in any given period of time, and Twitter definitely ain't it for me.
By the way, dA also sent me about 30 notices that some of my pieces had been deleted for policy violations...I mean, why would they even bother at that point? Or are they planning to send me 380 more notices about deleting the rest of them?
It’s very japanese.. but seems quite permissive about erotic images. The design is horrible, it makes me nauseous just looking at it.. but it offers you a gallery, “likes” and comments, and a message system. I’ve used it mainly to communicate with friends who got kicked off DA and haven’t found their way to cruxforums (yet!)
I contacted FetLife about joining their site and asked them for permission, outlining the exact nature of my posts... And they replied I am most welcome there...
