Newgrounds Doesn't Like Yakko
8 months ago
Or someone went out of their way to flag a bunch of the Yakko pics and they're currently in a state of unpublished limbo. No notification that they violated a TOS law, or what to do in order to unflag them. Some other newgrounds dude said "a cub threw you under the bus" because even the Wakko and Dot pics are still up without so much of an issue.
I REALLY hate this struggle with these characters and I kinda want to push people who still insist the Warners are kids in 2005. We're struggling with so much bullshit, and you call yourself a liberal and have an issue with "underage fictional characters". Oh No, the kids from Deltarune. Oh Not the TMNT. OH NO the teen titans. I'm tired of it. Of all the things I'm tired of, this is the stupidest one to still be an issue within the online artist sphere.
And I've done my best to pretty much know what is an isn't allowed. It's very obvious when someone is doing sketchy shit and pushing the boundary. Or someone deliberately ONLY enjoys a character that is WAY too young and doesn't even attempt to age them up or create an AU that makes them more mature. And I'm aware of how this artwork was used to attract young artists, which is why I'm in the mess I'm in now. I was the youth who wanted to draw smut when I was barely legal, but here I am, still drawing what I want to draw. I'm also surrounding myself with other adults who are equally all messed up because of being big ol pervs all our lives.
I think anyone who's ever had issue with my art in the modern times, are those who were caught by their parents looking porn when they shouldn't have to sort of cover their ass. The Earthbound stuff really was like that, if it wasn't for a few people who just made it their vendetta to spread hate against me because they were insecure. The normal thing to do is just "ew, block/mute" and move on with your life. I'll be sad, but I accept it, at least you're protecting yourself and I'm happy my work won't be hurting you anymore. But the worst contenders are those who decide to go out and take down my platforms as if I've found a way into their house and will eat their brains if they don't try and ruin me in some way.
"Why don't you accept responsibility" what crime? Thought crimes? What I have learned is to 1) tag my shit so people don't see the triggering topic 2) draw more OCs which noone cares about to try and block. Most people know that I don't interact with many people, so I don't draw this stuff to "groom" people. It's just stuff that sits in my brain because it amuses me, and I get people equally happy that i drew it. I appreciate it.
I just really don't know why it's such a pain to have to just make art of these three and it will always be a struggle to let it be free online for those who need to know, it's ok to be a pervert. As the Warner's themselves said "we like drawing naked people."
I mean i guess if Tom Ruggar is going around these websites and reporting them himself, that's really petty of him, but I've only ever heard of him shit talking fanfictions because of how OOC they are. I'd be very sad if any of the staff were reporting my work (like how WB took down that Meat Canyon cartoon of Bugs Bunny raping Elmer Fudd), but I'm not gonna stop doing it, and I would encourage the rest of you to normalize this shit. Draw more cartoon porn! Don't commit real crimes, but please just draw more porn while you can. Don't let the purity bastards take this away from us.

same here. Warners are form 1920 or 1930s and I don't know why this idiots don't know that? Even Dot saying I am old enough to be your grandmother


Yakko is the one that everyone wants to fuck; they clearly don't get the character.



Seriously this


Just wanted to say, you're one of my favorite artist and I'm sorry to hear you going through this! I hope things stabilize soon, there is nothing wrong with aged up characters! One thing I'd suggest is maybe adding a personal website to your platforms? This is what I did and don't regret it one bit. It can offer some peace of mind that it's a sanctuary you can retreat to that nobody can take away just because they potentially misjudged something you drew. Anyhow, best of luck and hope things get better for you soon!

OP
Thanks for the nice comments. I know a personal website would solve a lot but I would loose any sort of interconnection between different artists if I got completely solo. Either way. Thanks. I'll get this figured out.
