So... What Happened?
10 years ago
"Under(her)tale"; the first part of the adult comic parody I did was deleted from my gallery due to the fact that "Frisky", the aged-up male version of the original Frisk, appeared to still hold a child-like appearance. A few people did warn me about this, but me or someone else clarified that "Frisky" was not the same relative age of the child Frisk. In hindsight, it would've saved me and the FA admins a lot of time if I made that clarification a lot more clear.
So was I given a warning in my note box, giving me 48 hours to respond before out-right deleting all 22 pictures and suspending my account? Nope. Went straight for the suspension. Alright, fine, I'm not going let it get to me. So I emailed for an appeal on their mailing address, stating that I would've clarified about the age of the parody character. After posting "Frisky's" reference sheet, the response I received was;
"The character that you have shown me still appears to be a child."
Looking back, I can see why the admins would think this, "Frisky's" Head/Body ratio is that similar that to Sonic the Hedgehog. Usually child characters are drawn with large heads on small bodies. Okay, my mistake on that.
So now what? I got my account back, but is Under(her)tale cancelled? I not sure yet. I still need to sort things out with the admins through the ticket system. I'll let everyone know what the verdict is afterwards. I might re-upload an edited version on FA, or I might just uploaded to a different site. I don't know yet, but I'll let you know later.
If you have any questions/suggestions, let me know. I'm not going leave my FA account over this, but I will try to be more active on other sites;

Shame it had to happen to you, though.
Seriously, if minors porn is going to be deleted, then a more consistent job should done about it, not done on what seems like on a "selective" basis. I feel like in this case, the comic got deleted more readily because Undertale's popularity as a whole made the community here in this site, and in effect, the mods more wary of fanart and otherwise associated with it...just my theory/assumption on the matter though.
Upload image
Wait for approval
??????
Profit
Im pretty sure someone else covered uploading the first part though.
But thanks for explaining how IB works. It was very emlightening.
Only thing I can think of is adjusting the design, though wonder how to do that but keep the responsibility as a Frisk representative.
Playing with the ratio, in tiny ways I guess. Maybe slight stuble, darker eyes. When everyone calls him kid, have him correct them begrudgingly
Then get everything approved before next time.
As others had stated above me, e621.net and/or pixiv.net might be your best bets if you decided to repost the current pages of Under(her)Tail comic elsewhere. In the meantime, wishing you best of luck with the mods on the current issue, that things might get resolved smoothly.
I'd hate to see it cancelled, since that's how I found you. Would love to see more of it somehow, like having it just directly posted on E621 or something, but I ain't gonna unwatch you if you don't continue. Rather, I'll be looking forward to your other artwork instead~!
...Still though, I loved how you drew Frisk in every panel of Under(her)tail, they were all cartoony gold.
Site being a dick or not you got fans following you regardless.
i reported another personfor having a 14 year old character (they even stated it) being completely nude doing the nasty, i never got a reply from the wonderful administration nor did they remove said art :U
I'm so sorry that the admins are giving you hell.
Just pull a Bender; make your own art site, with blackjack and hookers!
Oh yes, pull out the bigot card and scream it loud.
In seriousness, though, just move to some place like Inkbunny, or get to tumblr. They tend to let people slide if you make it clear all characters are of consenting age. A lot of people have been leaving FA in droves, or so I've heard. Mind you, I've not been paying attention to that, as the current political issues in America, I'm sure you know what I mean, are holding my attention with annoyance and worry.
Anyways, good luck to you. I hope whichever admin is flexing his or her power wises up quickly, or at least is prepared to face some ungodly wrath. Lord knows with how restless the world's getting, people are just looking for a reason to snap.
I'd obviously recommend e621.
If you don't want to deal with the sites structure and tagging, feel free to ask a friend to submit your comics (after sending it to their email) for you on the site and tag it as well. I'd recommend myself if nobody comes to mind, which I doubt will happen by the way, but just putting it out there.
I never really liked Furaffinity, I only came here for two authors in particular, anyway. People are great, but sites searching capabilities are as terrible as Rule 34's.
(You and Slypone are the authors of which I speak by the way, if anyone was curious.)
(They could post the link your patreon, if you have one, in the description as well, and credit you even. It's all pretty easy to do, especially if you know how.)
I wouldn't see any patreon work personally because i'm cheap, but it's an idea.
Just a suggestion.
I believe it's similar to Inkbunny but allows human stuff as well
They also seem really lax about things that appear underage from what I've seen
I woulda thought that was an 18+ character, just based on personality and cock-size alone, but yeah, better to be safe than sorry, I spose. Still one of the funniest damn comics I've seen in a longlong time. Stay up Will!
but seriously... it is clear this is not a child... its a teenager...
but we all have had trouble with admins because of stuff like that at least once...
7 of my friends had to leave FA allready cause their art was "pedophile"...
but actually all teh chars where over 30... it was just the art style of the game they where based of, mayde them look underage...
but before checking that fakt, they wher banned...
some really sad things are happening around here
