If I won a bid for a YCH or similar auction, message me on Discord at Shrike#9999, I am just simply not active enough here to respond to messages. I have no intent to screw anyone, or give the impression I'm screwing anyone.

My suggestion for FA (automod blocked from feedback disco...
2 years ago
I did attempt to post this to Furaffinity's feedback channel when it opened a couple minutes ago.
Unfortunately, Discord's amazing automod system autoblocked it and now the message will not be heard.
I will post it here, because even though this account gets no reach, I would like to attempt to add to the voices that want to truly protect kids.
UPDATE: The mods allowed my post through. I wanna clarify that this was Discord's fault and not the mod team's fault. However, I do think this message is important so I will leave it here for those that don't have discord or aren't in the FA Discord.
Anyway, here's what I tried to post:
________________________________________________________________________________
The ban on content is well intentioned though flawed.
My approach may be different from many other people here, as I wish to take the intention seriously and fight it at the root.
If the ban on content is indeed motivated by a desire to protect kids from groomers on the site, then I wish to be heard on this proposal.
A summary of my wishlist:
Kids should not be on Furaffinity. (18+ or even higher requirement)
And failing that:
Penalties for mistagging NSFW as SFW should be increased significantly (doing this knowingly exposes kids to pornography, and should be taken more seriously). Tickets for mistagging NSFW vs. SFW should be prioritized higher than everything else. NSFW should be updated to encompass **all** the things you can't show kids, such as big bulge work intended to arouse.
An explanation:
A common practice in various NSFW communities is to block all minors irregardless of whether porn is gated or not by role restriction. It is baffling that Furaffinity still allows minors on the site considering that the furry community has grown to become a porn dominated fandom.
Kids should not be on a site that hosts NSFW content. That this should even be something to be argued is baffling. Whatever ideals of a Furry fandom that is not about porn on the surface level have been dead for a decade, and have no sign of ever coming back to life. However, the groomer problem is far more serious and needs to be addressed at its roots.
Furaffinity, by being a site that allows kids, also becomes a site that is like a beacon for groomers. Potentially sexually curious kids all in one place? Talk about a groomer's wet dream!
This site has had a really bad history with groomers. To put it very bluntly, it doesn't matter what boundaries you put in content availability; kids being on the site encourages grooming. There is a reason kids are hard banned from most sites that host porn. While this absolutely does not 100% solve the problem, it does prevent most of it and keeps kids out of harms way (simply by not lying to them about the safety of the site).
If Furaffinity still decides to double down on kids being allowed on the site, I offer another solution. It will not solve the problem, it will only bandaid a much larger problem, but it's still something that at the minimum should be done to protect kids. Many people I talk to complain about how NSFW content gets published, mistagged as SFW, and that tickets regarding the content don't get resolved in a timely fashion at all. Moreover, there is a bit of a discrepency on how Furaffinity defines "NSFW" and what is actually not appropriate for kids.
My solution is threefold, and I will repeat what I said above in detail.
-Mistagging NSFW content as SFW should have a significantly higher penalty. It is inexcusable to post NSFW content unfiltered when you know full well kids are on the site, knowingly exposing them to pornography.
-Tickets that call out mistagged SFW posts should be significantly higher priority if not top priority. If a a pornographic image is tagged SFW, there needs to be next to no red tape in the way of tagging it NSFW and punishing the uploader for not being careful.
-NSFW should be redefined to include questionable content. Content such as bulges, vore, and so on should not be in front of the kids eyes on this site. Therefore, it is NSFW content. Period.
Of course, the true solution to prevent grooming would be to ban kids altogether. With how often the site allows known pedos and groomers to roam around, kids are literally not safe on the site at all and many users including myself take massive issue with this.
