Time for a rant. Yeas, I keep getting images blocked by 'moderators' and ultimately, there's nothing offensive about said picture... yet it gets blocked. Is it an overzealous moderator or a bot?
I've been pondering that question a lot. Perhaps the answer is neither, but rather a user reporting images for a cheap and easy 50 buzz? Just a thought, though if that is one the mark, then perhaps the system is in desperate need over an overhaul?
Art is subjective and beauty is in the eye of the beholder... as is what one takes offense with. Now... I see harmless images that suggest nothing insidious as all. Take for example one I generated not more than an hour ago.
A girl, in her school uniform, laying on her bed. Nothing more than that. Was putting the model through its paces to see if it was rigid or malleable in the poses it could offer... in this case, wanted to see if the model could do more than simply stand, looking towards the viewer... So I did one walking, one sitting, one from behind and one laying... and the laying one got blocked? Why?
Was it at all lewd? No. Underwear? No. Pajamas? No. The horizontal mambo!?! NO, NO, NO!!!
Utterly absurd.
Now, I don't really don't know the ins and outs of the whole reporting system as I haven't needed to use it, but I suspect it's about as sophisticated and baseless as the report function on youtube... though unlike the later, you also get a fistful of buzz for your groundless claim.
But I want to know your thoughts... I've looked into ToS shenanigans in the past and most seem to agree that it's due to bots and scripts... but what if it isn't? Share your thoughts below and thanks for reading! <3
PS - Yes, the cover image is the one that was flagged. Share your thoughts in regards to that too!
...And yes, I realize that it's on the nose to pose something that has been flagged already, but I remain steadfast and defiant in the face of nonsense. >.>
PSS - Seems like the cover is flagged for review, so no one will see it unless it passes regardless. ^^;
