This is 100% accurate. lol

FEELS.

Thanks again for letting us know and being a part of our community! :D

xDDDDDDDDD

But now im not sure if keep reporting after basically telling me "fuck your evidence, it isnt accepted, dont do that again pls thnx" xD

can't express the amount of inner rage this triggers for me.

FA staff likes to pick and choose what rules they wanna enforce and whom they will enforce them on.

The "For clarification" bit really got me, like was that even a necessary thing to say? >w>
That's like the equivalent of saying "Yeah well the issue was resolved, but not because YOU told me to do it"
It's really not all that hard to run stuff by your colleagues because hey, sometimes clarification is needed and misunderstandings happen
But no, I guess it's easier for them to just dig their heels in and be belligerent

I reported stuff that directly violated multiple sections of AUP, and all I got was "changed report to different type" within a couple hours, then "submission doesn't exist anymore closing ticket" almost a week later, because I contacted the person a couple days later and got them to remove it after explaining where it violated AUP.

So seeing this is kinda a massive zero surprise :/

literal doo doo water

> Asks you to use an archiving site to snapshot a Mature/Adult rating submission.
> Crawler sites can't "view/access" these submissions without an active login token with NSFW permissive settings.

?????
Why even tell someone to do such a thing if you don't even know how such archiving sites work yourself?

FA staff is dumb. I know EXACTLY how it feels for them to inconsistently apply their own rules at your expense.

Yeah there's been a lot of artists spamming their ych's lately. Seems to be flavour of the year, and I hate it, it fills up the "New Submissions" so easily when ya follow a handful of artists that does it =d

You thought FA staff was smart is the issue

Did you try buying more Ads? You have to [BUY MORE ADS] to get premium treatment.

Sir, I got 2 ADS with 1 year of duration. where is my premium treatment (?)

You gotta support the company for 2 years before the premium treatment kicks in.
Soz fam.

fucc

Don't forget the Dragoneer special. $694.20 for a additional ad and maybe some support when we feel like it.

Buy $GME

Smh

Still a good reference
And yes, the site sucks

Just wait for entail to be released.

whats that

Interesting

I can't wait for it to crash and burn, just like Weasyl, and FurryNetwork, and FurryLife.Online. And I guarantee you it will, because the furry community is at a point where even the slightest trigger will cause it to tear any site apart.

Perhaps. History tends to repeat itself.

Its very likely xD, but i lose nothing if it gets added to postybirb

I thought things were supposed to get better post IMVU.

I'm a little out of the loop on imvu, what happened with it?

I don't really know the details, aside from that FA is independent from them now.

This was literally my experience. Granted, this was before the new policy. I'm still holding out hope that the new policy comes with tools to let staff review.

My story is, two users I follow were posting "YCH Reminder!" images. they would delete them as soon as they fell off the "New Submissions" box, and repost them. I had screenshots with timestamps, links to all the deleted submissions, and clearly explained to the staff what they were doing.

"The content you have reported is no longer in our database. It may have been removed by the user or another member of site staff; however, if this issue persists and you have more evidence concerning it, please RE-OPEN this ticket so that I may assist you further."

Most of times i get that response too, until i tell them "bruh check 2.1" sometimes they accept the evidence and other times they are like this.

Uhm...what was the issue, exactly? I don't know where to find these rules or what the "holy fook" issue was at

https://www.furaffinity.net/aup
Check 2.1

The users i've been reporting have been spamming reminders, usually like 5 or more in less than an hour. And its a lot of users doing the same.

Ohhhh, I see that bout once an hour, never THAT bad. Ouch

Go to Support. Under Rules & Policies you can find Upload Policy

Appreciate the clue in

Yup, FA in a nutshell.

Another symptom of this site being cobbled together. Most applications don't delete data, but internally mark it as deleted, if you do it that way, you can at least see what things got deleted. Or even better, why not just log user actions? If you see a lot of activity, something may be up.

Not so much cobbled together as still running on an ancient code base. FA's core was designed back in 2005, and despite a couple of attempts to rewrite the code, they never managed to get it modernized. Since then it's had patches on top of patches applied to keep it going.

That's fucking bullshit, its legit just add a column with "isDeleted" and you update queries.

Afternoon of work that FA staff is just too fucking lazy to deal with.

It's not BS. Not only do you need to add the column, but now you need to add it to the appropriate indexes and reindex, which will double memory since you need to duplicate these indexes to accommodate for the overlapping time when the indexes are present but the site software hasn't been updated. The reindexing itself will take up a good amount of resources, just based on the number of IDs FA has given out being in the tens of millions, which will slow their database down in the process. And that's not to mention that the code base probably doesn't have good hygene, in that they probably didn't use DAO objects and instead just made SQL calls directly where needed, which means updating the query is going to be a much larger affair.

This is what I mean about patches on top of patches. FA is an ancient code base, and as someone who's worked on ancient code bases, seemingly innocuous changes tend to have huge sprawling effects that can easily cause problems elsewhere.

2007-2010 RIP proper FA with actual caring staff that deal with problems like this. Your services will be missed. (I'm only 40% serious here)

And yet if you said, "I think I saw some child porn over *there*!" they'd lock the account and ban anyone who even looked at it, without even checking it themselves within seconds.

Thank you for your ticket "F*** this bulls***!" You're concerns have been noted, ticket closed.

Not gonna lie, I had a laugh. FA we meme you like this because we care about what may as well be the official home of furries.

This xD, at least thanks to this meme could talk directly to Dragoneer to share some feedback. Hopefully soon this stuff will improve. For now the staff told me that with usernames, links to submissions will suffice with their new tools in development

This right here is why I gave up reporting the spammers. No matter how much proof you give, some of the staff just doesn't do jack about it- update a ticket 13 times with archive and submission links, plus lightshot screenshots with the mouse hovering over the submission time so they can see exactly when every submission was submitted? Oh, the submission was deleted so there's no problem here! Sigh.
