DeviantArt is different....

Go to CruxDreams.com
No longer a member there, have you posted it on here, sorry, I don't follow the goings on too often here or elsewhere because of work! D
Since I'm a CF'members ( on January 2012 ), perhaps certainly that I've not much posted here ... :cbiggrin:
Anyway, that's , of course, that I'm not a GREAT artist like you ... and not juged suffisciently worthy to be viewed ... :D

... and how many more ! ....... :tejeqteje:
 
I think you got yourself started when you said “leftist morons” ;)
But OK.
No, DA started this when they started purging content creators because ths site is now being run by a bunch of humourless puritans
 
Actually, I saw they only were deleting arts where women were "harmed" (hanged for what I'm into). However, when it's about male harms, everything's fine and you can publish there.
Double standards, indeed.

If they don't want to have execution pictures, no problem: but do it for every kind of killing, not just for one category of people (even if, I agree, women were the most part).

That's the trouble with the woke mobs - if they didn't have double standards, they wouldn't have any standards at all :(
 
I don't think DA's purging has got anything much to do with political, ideological positions
(and please can we just accept that we a very mixed bunch so far as those are concerned,
which is one thing I like about CF, so long as we don't get into snapping at one another)
It's simply because the current owners want it to be a mainstream, vanilla site that can attract advertisers.
It's a shame, and the arbitrary way they're going about cancelling members does them no credit -
but it's just a commercial decision.
 
Went looking for where folks went after the Tumblr ban, and this article from last February


still includes Deviantart. :doh:
 
And tumblrx


is already defunct.

Time flies when you’re having fun. :flamethrower2:

(Never used that one before. :rolleyes:)
 
well I persevered, even though it takes weeks for them to reply (not anymore I was getting emails an hour later at the end)
the mail that really pissed me off said

my reply wasn't very polite and received this as their answer

Thank you for your cooperation and understanding.

my reply to that ( I didn't open a ticket)
was to say that their parent company wix is a publicly traded company, if deviantart is deliberately falsifying their active user numbers by refusing to let people leave, then that will have an effect on the share price, and that is fraud amongst other crimes, and told them I was writing to the SEC in the afternoon to demand an investigation in to their practices and would encourage other banned users to do the same.
an hour later I got this

it seems I hit a raw nerve and they most likely are breaking the law

its all about the money, no left wing right wing bullshit its just the money
Well as another example, OnlyFans are reported as saying they are soon going to 'block sexually explicit content and video' and it's said to be mostly pressure from payment companies.
