I changed my title in protest

Because that's what the new rule change is effectively trying to take away from me.
First they said I couldn't be a dad to humans. Now they're saying I can't be a dad to Pokemon.
I've said this a hundred times before, but just like the arguments against banning underage characters as a whole, they are once again forcing me to repeat it:
I did not give Pokemon, and later humans, to my Poke'sona to carry around in his beak on a whim. I was inspired to do so by the Pokedex.
RUBY: "Pelipper is a flying transporter that carries small Pokémon and Eggs inside its massive bill. This Pokémon builds its nest on steep cliffs facing the sea."
SUN: "Its spacious beak is large enough for a small child to fit right inside."
ULTRA SUN: "It places small Pokémon into its spacious beak and carries them around. No one knows where it's taking them."
VIOLET: "It protects its young in its beak. It bobs on waves, resting on them on days when the waters are calm."
OH NO!!! POKEMON VORE IS CANON!!! AND PELIPPER DOING NONFATAL VORE ON ITS CHILDREN IS CANON!!! AND SINCE, PER THE WORD OF THE ANONYMOUS F.A. ADMINS, ALL VORE IS PORNOGRAPHIC, THAT MEANS PELIPPERS ARE ALL PEDOS!!! MAYBE THEY SHOULD HAVE CALLED IT PEDOPPER!!!

Fuck it, I'm not doing anything in response to this. In fact, I'm going to do the exact opposite: I am going to go back and RESTORE all the artwork that I had previously replaced with placeholder images out of precaution.
Why would I do such a thing? Because this proves, not only that the purity trolls among the admins know damn fucking well what they are doing and are doing it deliberately, but that it's never going to stop.
They said it themselves when, through the Fender puppet, they described their changes as "well-received". So yeah, that shit show where hundreds, if not thousands of users either purged their galleries or announced that they were leaving in protest? That was the response they were hoping for.
At least apart from the part where many of the artists they targeted purged their galleries before they could be given any more strikes and/or banned. Hence the expansion: They're gearing up to go after those accounts again.
So if I'm one of them: Fuck it, I don't care. If the purity trolls want to ban me, purging my account of every image featuring one Pokemon acting like a parent to another won't stop them from just expanding their definition of "underage" even further to include something else in my gallery.
What's next, purity trolls? Will you consider kangaroos to be pedophile-by-default because of all the pouch stuff on F.A.?
Chances are absolutely nothing will happen since I wasn't one of their original targets. I'm not significant -- if I'm suspended for a period of time, it will not result in entire droves of F.A. users demanding answers like when they went after Strega and Charem.
But now they'll have to purge my account in its entirety -- to leave no corpse behind over which the rest of their hellspawn brethren can gloat -- if they want to erase the record of what they've done.
I am the Papa Pelipper. I carry kids in my beak because I love them, because I protect them, and because it's part of the fucking canon!

This and previous problems caused by FA mods, is the reason why a lot people changed to other sites like https://inkbunny.net/ or https://www.pixiv.net/en/ that are more friendly and respectful of your artstyle choices. Some popular artists already changed from FA to those sites like Zaush did long ago.
