Patreon Upgrade: Hoping this is not another Tumblr Purge

Posted by AdventVoice - September 17th, 2019


I have a new banner on Patreon at the moment.

The mask will stand in until I devise a better theme. I recieved a nasty little email yesterday: the Trust and Safety team of Patreon, may apply a temporary suspension to my page if they don't hear from me.

Why? Good Question: I think I might have something to do with https://www.newgrounds.com/art/view/adventvoice/maleficent-fantasies-dreams-dirty-version which used to be my banner, before the new upgrade for the sake of safety and the ability to continue publishing.

I was really fond of my Maleficent piece being the banner and now I have to change some things around. All good things must come to an end.


I don't mind sharing the email cause I think it is good information to warn other NSFW artists with: Don't make my mistake:

You can view the entire article on my discord account:


Please update any public posts with adult content to patron only, as well as review your banner, avatar, and reward tier images and remove any adult content. You can review your public posts by navigating to "Posts" and clicking "Public" on the left under your tags. <<< (This part of the letter I am having trouble with because The Trust and Safety Team think my posts are public and people can view my work without having to pay to view it....That is news to me. I posted my work on Patreon for the privacy factor and idea that I could write or draw what I wanted without the Tumblr Effect bothering, without the Twitter censoring team going crazy, or the constant denials of Hentai Foundry about the level of detail put into my work. Now I beginning to feel the availability of charging people to view NSFW material has been diminished by this idea that even if you are not a Paying Patreon or a consuming customer asking for commissioned work, you can just go around viewing and critiquing and infringing upon my copy rights. What a joke if that has been going on and this is there way of saving face by suggesting I am in the wrong because I posted a picture of a giant ejaculating dick or lactating tits.


That is a small issue compared to people not paying me to view my content. I am really hoping this is not another excuse to pull a Tumblr Purge and suggest I am violating public laws when the entire system of Patreon is built on the notion that you have to pay to view my content, if you don't pay, there should be some kind of blurring, God awful barrier put on the image so not to offend anyone. I am hoping it was just the banner that was the issue, which I am sure Mask-Face makes for an easy fix. Sigh...the job of a NSFW producer is needlessly filled with irritating emails threatening to violate my rights to the first Amendment of the American f-ing constitution which at this point in our lives should be mandatory acceptance of all platform providers.

It is a wonderful clause and should be adopted everywhere. It should just be understood and excepted.

We all have the right to say what we want, to write what we like, and to express ourselves as we see fit. I open those rights to the Confederate flag waving weirdo's as well, with the wonderful hope of ever seeing it being made mandatory for a person to pledge allegiance to that thing, just so I can burn it down.

That is how free-thinking institutions are supposed to work. That is how the real world operates and to seek to suppress anyone's right to free speech, freedom of press, freedom of assembly and the right to due process or expression, will only backfire on those seeking to scrub out what they believe should not be. Especially if they find themselves on the wrong side of the questioning panel.

I don't just food for thought.


Felt like adding this in there after thinking about it for a while. I am really glad I have kept all of my journals. I probably should do a better job of saving files digitally, just so when one platform deletes my content, there is another to take it's place in a moments notice. I would hate to have to type everything up all over again. Thank God for wordpress.com. I am not ready to publish "Bad Guy," there yet, but I will have to put what I have there now, just to hold onto what I have written and filed away, since Patreon is not really a safe space for NSFW material anymore.


Comments

I got also caught by Patreon's safety team two times already. Both are annoying news but i understand their reasons...i just look things on the good side. I replied to them with kindness and sincerity and remove those violated their rules and guidelines. I then follow their terms and conditions. They lifted the ban once all those mistakes corrected. I am now working rhings happily but now careful and abidding to the patreon rules.

Same here. I am just happy that I am allowed to continue publishing there.
