Hi all!

My unemployment is ending soon and I’m still looking for a job, so any support or shares help a lot as these commissions will soon become my only source of income.

Currently taking DND/OC commissions on V-Gen!

Thanks a bunch 💜

(Well, everyone should be kept away from VLTs. They're terrible and designed to create gambling addictions)

I like to think that it wasn't the porn, it was the AI-generated stuff because the DoE supports independent commissions and tipping your favorite artists

I've always suspected that the "AI Art is great" and "Should be kept away from VLTs" venn diagram is nearly a circle

You have a real talent in this style, and were a pleasure to work with :)

Still one of the best pieces of art I had commissioned. You took the concept, expanded on it in your style, and it is *incredible*

Why is the answer to Firage not just giving him the ol' Richard Spencer?

Hey dumbshits, this photo is like 33 years old

Yeah, I agree, the number is a low ball

Hi! It's Jase-o-lantern! 🏳️‍⚧️ @itsherby.bsky.social · 8d

I mean... technically that's fine by the rule :D

We just want to know the house rules, and that everyone is playing with the same rules.

Thanks if you took the time to read this.

Moderation is a tightrope walk, for sure. But when people wonder if they'll be punished for something they made today in a week, that frustration is going to start getting people to say "Just put the throttle to the floor"

Hi! It's Jase-o-lantern! 🏳️‍⚧️ @itsherby.bsky.social · 8d

A lot of the frustration right now is that a lot of us perceive the rules as hard to identify. "Why is that okay, but this isn't?", which is why a lot of original content posters just assume that we're gunna get perma'd at some point.

I agree that personal attacks on staff are NOT okay though.

If I may, if hundreds of people keep saying "This is a person who has actively said that he wants us dead, and wants to bring other people that want us dead to the site, and this is the context of this post", maybe have an escalation procedure?

Mistakes will happen, and moderation is difficult

It seems like the smart response would've been "Hey, that one's not cool because of <x>. Delete it, and we'll give you a 1 timeout and you're back"

If you just message me with "Hi", I'm not gunna answer. That's obviously a trap

Yeah, the bigots and AI spam bots are doing a great job getting those numbers up. This is a sustainable business model.

Now who else who actually creates and helps can we ban in the name of self-moderation...

fix it.

A typewritten note that reads:

Link is, literally, the reason we sell our art.
He talked us into it and insisted on showing us financial support.

In 25 years of being active online, we've never encountered a better voice.

If I started off writing a protocol, and somehow timed the production launch to create a popular social media site, I think I could probably find someone to help spin it off and run it instead of being mad people showed up
