NSFW & Uncensored Pages on Patreon
Added 2024-12-14 23:10:49 +0000 UTCHey Y'all!
Two of SoL's recent posts (Pages 466-470 and Timelapse 465-470) crossed Patreon's rules for NSFW content and during that time had suspended my entire account here, which was scary to say the least! (My bills, rent, groceries... everything's paid for by y'alls support I get here)
For the security of my account I won't be posting anything NSFW here anymore, so at the moment I'm looking for an alternative way to share uncensored pages with y'all. Thanks for hangin on while I sort this out <:)c

AH yeah, while Patreon does allow NSFW content, it's under strict circumstances. Basically if it's illegal IRL, it's illegal in fiction too.

2024-12-29 04:30:02 +0000 UTCItβs interesting because Iβve seen other patreon pages have NSFW posted on it, unless you need a specific type of page or it crossed another rule?

2024-12-25 00:44:37 +0000 UTCi do have an idea you cloud create a discord server and depending on the subscription user could have acces to some channel there bot that can go and verify the subcription of user on discord depending on that they could give or remove role and those role would be used to gain acces to channel

2024-12-22 18:03:00 +0000 UTCYeah, its ridiculous. If 'NSFW' is restricted for being unappropriate than they should remove all works with boxing, wrestling, showing cleavage, cursing... Like HOLY CRAP this is fiction! Nothing wrong with showing 'adult content'. If it was real life then yes, I completely understand why they should restrict it.

Federica Stagi
2024-12-17 19:23:14 +0000 UTCYou could try putting them onto a google drive and just post the external link to Patreon. It might be less work than the suggestions regarding your own website or managing another Discord server.

2024-12-16 15:49:51 +0000 UTCBut it's strange. Patreon should allow publications of all kinds because it is not a social π€ In case it should allow the author to put the option for mature content. You know the phrase, you are 18+? and you put "yes" and see the post

2024-12-16 02:14:14 +0000 UTCIt's ironic really how the phrase "struggling artist" is still so relevant and much more complex. I think that the invasion of A.I into artwork has had a fair amount to do with it aswell, blurring those lines even further. I get what you mean in terms of of people draw it then they're 'into it'. It's all down to context, isn't it? I mean, people who draw things that really excite them (NSFW or otherwise) is a personal interest so they're likely into what they're drawing to some degree right? I mean, doing any kind of art where you have no personal investment in it is such a struggle!! But in your case, you're drawing from prompts and bringing written word into something graphic. Your preferences aren't even relevant in this case (not to say that they don't matter obviously!! π) god it's such a tricky thing this, isn't it? I honestly admire your tenacity ontop of your amazing artworks. I'm sure this has been a blow to you but I really hope this hasn't completely deterred you from continuing. Your art style fits this story like a glove and so many people adore it ^_^ β€οΈ

2024-12-16 01:57:49 +0000 UTCI've heard of them! I don't have plans on moving, but I do agree that it'd be wise not to put all of my eggs in one basket!
Melikas
2024-12-16 01:48:54 +0000 UTCArtists being policed over what they draw is a tale as old as time, lmao!
Melikas
2024-12-16 01:47:51 +0000 UTCOH Gee, horror, you're sweet <:)c dw I'm thinking of a way where nobody has to do any moving around and y'all can still access all the content conveniently : ) Thanks sm for your support!! <3 <3
Melikas
2024-12-16 01:47:09 +0000 UTCit was only about a day long, but I wasn't able to process my income for a week because of it.
Melikas
2024-12-16 01:45:57 +0000 UTCThanks Madeyes! I'm hoping to find an easy solution so nobody has to do any moving around and y'all can still access content easy
Melikas
2024-12-16 01:44:57 +0000 UTCI hadn't thought of that! thank you for the suggestion Junbug <3
Melikas
2024-12-16 01:44:17 +0000 UTCAsh, you're awesome!! An external website I've definitely considered!! I do think I ought to create a website of my own. For now, I might use a barebones discord server to post nsfw to in the meantime. Thank you for these wonderful resources, Ash! I'll go ahead and give it a look!!! xoxo
Melikas
2024-12-16 01:28:30 +0000 UTCMe too! Que a training montage!
Melikas
2024-12-16 01:26:40 +0000 UTCI agree! Glad to have my account back! Can you imagine having your job revoked from you, suddenly? And for what? A frisky cartoon skeleton.
Melikas
2024-12-16 01:26:00 +0000 UTCI couldn't agree more with you. Yeah, we'll figure something out!
Melikas
2024-12-16 01:24:28 +0000 UTCIt's true! Although NSFW is still technically allowed on Patreon, I don't feel safe posting it when such a mild scene had resulted in threatening my livelihood.
Melikas
2024-12-16 01:23:55 +0000 UTCI appreciate your sympathy so much you don't even know, Beth! Yeah, censorship in art has been a rising issue. More and more the line between fiction and reality is getting blurred again, which is a boomeranging issue that keeps coming back in history. A popular belief taking over the online space again is that if an artist draws it, they condone it/practice it IRL. While Patreon still allows nsfw, it's only within the strict guidelines that follows real life principles/laws. This SoL scene was flagged likely because Sans was using hypnotism on Frisk's soul, leading her into an act she wouldn't have normally consented to-- Nevermind it simply being a daydream of his. I feel ridiculous having to explain the actions of cartoon characters
Melikas
2024-12-16 01:22:31 +0000 UTCI think a reader had reported me based on the context of the scene, because the scene itself is fine but with context Sans was "hypnotizing" Frisk into a nonconsensual act, which Patreon doesn't allow. (Nevermind that the scene was just a daydream.)
Melikas
2024-12-16 01:12:51 +0000 UTCThank you Tara, you're sweet! Don't worry, I don't have plans on moving perse, more just providing a third party that y'all can access specifically for nsfw content. So far, I'm thinking of making another discord server, with the sole purpose of posting content there that I wouldn't want on Patreon. And yeah! There are a lot of nsfw channels on Patreon, but the email I had gotten in regard to the suspension had stated "hypnosis/blackmail" as factors in noncon content, which they don't allow. And in the SoL scene, Sans was using magic on Frisk's soul. God, I feel like a child having to explain the actions of a couple of cartoons as if it's a real life crime scene xD LMAO!
Melikas
2024-12-16 01:10:34 +0000 UTCI'm sorry too! I've been on here over a decade and caused no issues. I'm disappointed that patreon made a move to disable my entire account and not just blind the posts themselves!
Melikas
2024-12-16 01:06:05 +0000 UTCI think it was a reader who reported it, because on the surface it was pretty straight forward nsfw but with context it's nonconsensual. Immean I hate arguing semantics over *cartoons* but if I really have to, then it wasn't even *real* in the context of the story itself, either. It was a daydream. OTL
Melikas
2024-12-16 01:05:00 +0000 UTCI couldn't agree more! Me, a person in real life, having their financial stability threatened over a... cartoon skeleton getting too rowdy.
Melikas
2024-12-16 00:54:51 +0000 UTCWowβ¦ you canβt post legal NSFW on patreon!!? I am so sick of this crap.
adsweety sweety
2024-12-15 22:10:19 +0000 UTCWish you the best in resolving the issue! Really sucks that happened.
Milaki
2024-12-15 17:47:22 +0000 UTCHey Melikas, it really sucks that they suspended your account. I think it would be best if you link the NSFW through external links or just censor your work? Don't beat yourself over it! We'll always support you!
Lessens
2024-12-15 09:32:38 +0000 UTCI'm sorry about what happened to you Melikas why don't you try to publish tapas on your channel since you didn't have any problems there it's just a suggestion I thought of greetings from Federica
Federica Stagi
2024-12-15 09:03:53 +0000 UTCCould try subscribstar! They're nsfw friendly ^^ Glad you got this sorted though!

2024-12-15 02:03:57 +0000 UTCI buy the patreon again and I find out you got suspended because patreon is stupid π
Zeta C
2024-12-15 01:46:13 +0000 UTCAw man, it sucks that patreon took it down, but its really scary that they suspended your account, please take it easy, your well being is more important to us then a few comic pages.
HorrorHM
2024-12-15 01:30:04 +0000 UTCOh really? I'm honestly surprised - and worried - that there's even a noncon flag reason for takedowns. It's a conundrum for sure...do they get angry if you post links to other sites? I can't imagine they'd be able to because people do that all the time and it's not like you're posting anything like a scam or similar...who knew art had to have so much red tape to it! I really sympathise m'dear.
Beth D
2024-12-15 01:23:04 +0000 UTCBS! How long is the suspension?
Elisabeth Puck
2024-12-15 00:59:19 +0000 UTCThat stinks, I hope that you find a method that works for you. Thank you for sharing.
Madeyes
2024-12-15 00:22:40 +0000 UTCOh no! You may want to look at putting them as a Google drive that you have access only too and sharing.
SkitteringJunBug
2024-12-15 00:01:17 +0000 UTCi guess you would have to use external links for the NSFW pages i remember i did a comic website once on wix so maybe creating a website there can help though i think you need a tutorial for protection of images so that the comic pages arent downloaded which hopefully is not a hassle to make or another way is creating your own website and pay the domain name but you would have to hire people though i study front end dev so i already created a basic comic website code here is the preview: https://marylu6.github.io/Comic-website/Cast_3/cast.html Here is the code: https://github.com/Marylu6/Comic-website?tab=readme-ov-file note: the archive doesnt work and the comments section is funky but with this what you need is a back end dev and domain the code i created is for free for everyone so hopefully this help you a lot!! Cheers!!

Stupid kitty
2024-12-14 23:39:13 +0000 UTCOH SHI-! I hope everything got/gets sorted I love your art and don't want this to happen again!
Opp Lol
2024-12-14 23:34:43 +0000 UTCGlad your account is back. Sometimes I wonder why the systems or the algorithms of certain platforms are too... catholic style... As I said to ya on Bluesky: there are people who post worse and they suspend your account?!β¦ *sigh :/β¦ Btw, glad itβs all ok now, and above all you are ok, and you find this alternative opt ππ«Ά

2024-12-14 23:23:58 +0000 UTCWell, there's discord. Maybe? That is bs. There's waaay more NSFW stuff posted on here...

2024-12-14 23:23:40 +0000 UTCThats weak scauce, and sorry to hear it happened his is a place that should have artistic liberty so that's really sad to hear
Humangoldin
2024-12-14 23:22:40 +0000 UTCBut it doesnβt make any sense how come yours was taken down but other creators literally just make a living drawing nsfw art without anything happening to them π₯²

2024-12-14 23:22:03 +0000 UTCI can understand you, thank you for the information π I'm sorry that your account was in danger π’

2024-12-14 23:20:24 +0000 UTCBro thats so wierd! There are so many creators who make NSFW content on Patreon and suddenly that just gets ignored instead? I hope you can find anything that can work like Patreon to post more darker or NSFW content wish you good lucksππ₯Ήβ₯οΈ (PS: Lemme know if you found anything or made any new accounts because i wanna keep supporting you in every wayπππ»β¨)

2024-12-14 23:19:15 +0000 UTCAh yeah I'm hoping so too! Trying to think of something that isn't a direct link to nsfw content n respectful of Patreon's guidelines. (I agree, I do think the scene posted was rather tame, but it was flagged as noncon)
Melikas
2024-12-14 23:19:08 +0000 UTCWhat but how, Iβve seen many contact creators upload NSFW content and nothing ever happens.
Dania Palestino
2024-12-14 23:17:45 +0000 UTCSeriously?? I imagine that there are far worse things being uploaded to Patreon every minute...oh well. I get why they did it and all but still... I'm glad you got your account back at the very least. Fingers crossed there's an alternative option that won't cause you problems in future π€
