DeviantArt's over-sensitivity to "Mature Content"
a year ago
Introduction (Why I posted this)
DA deleted more than 10 of my story works set as "MATURE CONTENT" (since I write erotic stuff there). Even so, I've abided by DA's rules to set as "MATURE" if erotic as stated, but they still shot down most of my best works.
Lack of Communication
DA never communicates or even warn (with specific reasons) before straight up deleting your works, which is something lacking. Even the "Contact Us" does not work, since you can't "NOTE" the Admins on DA or have any means of contact with DA staff. (More below)
Contact
The only way to contact a DA Admin/Staff is to report a Deviant post as "SEXUALLY EXPLICIT" which isn't a good way of communication toward the platform. This, I find awfully infuriating as I can't get my point across that I post erotic content marked "MATURE" and they don't bother checking with the writers/artists before they cut them down for being "erotic".
Moving Forward (Future Content Uploads for HFF)
Moving forward, I may stop posting for this DA account (deviantart.com/hadesfriskyfox) due to the DA staff's over-sensitivity to content posted on this DA. This site has no freedom anymore, and just as user "NaughtyCatNick" had gone through, I'm migrating most content over. I'm not going to waste time on a platform that doesn't let you contact the staff and just kills joy over and over. I'm done.
*Where to find my future content (after June 2024)
I've decided, after this batch of content is uploaded (until Mid-June), I will post everything here on FA.

Thank you.
Although, I must say this, you're too much of a deviant for Deviant Art. Sorry, I had to get that bad joke out of my system. It was there, and I took the shot.
