Other sites and deleting some old (pokemon) stuff
2 years ago
I thought thanks to my inability to draw cute my artworks were safe from the recent rule change especially since I normally made sure to don't stay too close (but still pretty close I guess) to the original design. However from reading other peoples experiences it seems that people also got banned for feral stuff since some moderators are unable to tell feral and semi feral creatures apart from anthro cubs (kinda understandable to some extend). This feels a bit like the ban on feral they tried to get away with once (older users might remember) but sneaking in through the back door this time.
Anyway, after recent news I simply deleted all my Pokemon stuff and pretty much all NSFW content that wasn't simply "human but with an animal head", just to be sure. Some things, I can't even reupload somewhere else anymore because I don't have the original files anymore. But that's not too bad since it was mostly very old and ugly stuff, from back when I was doodling stuff on AGNPHs Oekaki board with Insomniac and the gang in 2006 or whenever.
I probably keep all non-anthro stuff away from FA in the future, just to make sure. However since I heard about people getting banned just for having commissioned certain artists, maybe that wont be enough after all.
Unrelated (but also kinda not), here are other sites I post:
Social Media:

https://www.weasyl.com/~takiro (contains some of the deleted stuff)
https://takiro.sofurry.com/ (contains some of the deleted)
https://itaku.ee/profile/takiro (still empty but I will upload some selected works soon and then keep it up to date)

I try to post my works to multiple sites since many years since websites can go suddenly offline or get unusable for other reasons. I just yesterday learned that most of my deleted works would have probably ben fine but another moderator could just decide differently another month for the same artwork, since the rule is very subjective. I'd rather not risk it if I don't have to.
Personally I don't like e621. They disrespect artists right under the disguise of building an archive and anyone can upload everyone's artworks (also other things like cub art and nazi stuff). However most of my artworks are creative commons licensend for a reason (always visible on the artworks or in the description) so if someone else is going to upload them, that would be totally legal.
