New policy and such
2 years ago
So everyone has already talked about the policy and I have the same worries as other. I doubt I'll be able to say anything profound on it that others haven't already said so I'm gonna skip the preamble and just refer you to
Jaki-kun's post on it if you want a better understanding of the controversy.
In general, I'm both not that effected but also destroyed by this policy. Of my current gallery I think about 10% of it is going to be effected. regardless, I have a ton of things planned and a lot of what I enjoy is straight up gone now. The fact that we don't have guidelines and are subjected to how the reviewer feels about the art makes this place much more hostile to the things I want to do. Regardless of the guidelines, it's very likely I'm just not going to post any pokemon/digimon art here, tf or otherwise. The same may be true for a good majority of tf as well. Along with this, a majority of my characters are essentially bullied off the site. I just know they're gonna twist the rules to hit Morgan so there goes AB, the upcoming comic "moovin on up" is SFW but once again, no guidelines means I cant trust they wont twist them to find something banworthy, and I am not going to change my character's/comics to comply to a frivolous rule that wasn't a problem until someone in power decided to make it one.
I apologize if this sounds unorganized but I've honestly just been pushed out of my role and what I enjoy. Even if i can salvage my work and do a shift to comply with the policy, I've already lost so much and I refuse to walk on eggshells over this of all things.
With that being said, I'm not gonna say "in case I disappear here" I am going to say It is very likely that I will not continue doing my services on FA as long as this policy is in force. I may post some stuff here and there but eventually it will be too much of a lost cause to continue here or i will get hit by a ban for something that I created with no intentions of breaking the policy but, once again with no guidelines, its not in my control whether I intended to or not.
I don't know where I'm gonna go to from here but here's a quick look at other places
- Twitter isn't my favorite place and as of now, I'm only posting sketches there but with this policy, it very much might become the only place I can post. I would very much suggest following me there https://twitter.com/ArtUplift
- IB I am not too sure on. I am not gonna link it yet, as I truly want to avoid moving there but it seems like the last place I can post pokemon stuff. if it comes to that, I may focus just pokemon and digimon there.
- E6 I am also not sure about but it might be the only place to find pokemon tf since there's no other place I can think of
Quick things to keep in mind of
1. If you got a comm from me that you haven't saved, Do so now. I don't know what will or wont be removed, let alone if I'll be banned so don't assume its safe, with no guidelines, assume it isn't
2. I am not quitting art but I am likely to quit FA as this policy is a landmine and I can only blame myself for trusting it with this little clarification and admins who are already breaking their own rules.
3. Twitter is currently my only reliable source right now. I will either be bullied out of FA or forced out so don't expect you can reach me here in the next month, I may find a better place than twitter later but for now, twitter is going to be my main line for now.

OP
Oh yeah forgot to mention that as a downside. If I must, IB would probably be specifically just pokemon and digimon content. I'll have to find another place for poke TF and since most of those will be comics, I doubt twitter will meet the cut and E6 doesn't really have a follow feature so kinda stuck in a conundrum there.
