@Stalliarus!
If it is all part of a comic, that’s a great tag to use.
But a lot of people also use the “Series:*” tag. That might be more appropriate if they don’t have a narrative connecting them, and the relationship between them can be what you define it to be yourself.

@Stalliarus!
If you’d like to add a description to the tag, something that points to a website if there is one for what you’re doing or provides more information about the series itself, and maybe even includes a cover image for it if that’s appropriate, please feel free to PM me and I’ll help you set it up.

I’ll keep that in mind, thanks ✨

Hi I submitted a report against a concerning user almost a week ago for serious poor/bad safety tagging and nothing still has been done and the report still hasn’t been viewed/closed.
They are still continuing to mark/upload uncensored fetish/R34 content and mark them as safe/suggestive instead of “questionable” or “explicit”(aka the correct rating that it should be tagged as; unless someone actually goes onto their profile and fixes the safety tag themselves.
Could a moderator please look into this when they can? (I’m asking about it as it has took longer than usual for a report to be done/closed & I’m getting concerned it hasn’t been seen & it is a safety concern for the site.)
I was going to link their account but decided not to for the users own protection so only moderators know and can look into my reports for the user & the issue.

Can I upvote the artwork of a certain user with all my accounts? He’s my friend and I would like to support him as much as I can but I really don’t want to break rule 6# with upvoting images multiple times with different accounts. (If it’s needed I can hyperlink his user here)

Please pick only one of your accounts per each artwork you’d like to vote on, otherwise you’d be breaking Rule #6 (for instance, I upvote Celestia pictures from this admin account, while upvoting any other content from my normal user account).

How come the dedupe report from >>2596552 to >>1728753 was rejected? From what I can tell, the former is lower res, cropped, lossy format, with an alteration to contrast only and no changes in the content (eg. no touched-up brushwork).

They’re both images the artist has still present on their respective sources. If the artist had replaced the image at the source, it would be understood as an update; as the artist has both images still active, it’s understood as alternate versions. Alterations in contrast and cropping are changes to the content, as they definitely affect mood and focus.

(Foil Hat)
Out of curiosity, about how many image deletions per rule have been reversed? I figure it’s not particularly high for some rules (1 and 5 specifically), and I wonder if there are any rules that no images have been deleted for breaking?
EDIT: Of the 289,485 deleted images, how many were deleted in the past 18 months? Or would you not be willing to answer that question?

It’s a modern corollary to Murphy’s Law. Regardless of where you live and how warped your sleep schedule gets, if it’s possible to be online at the wrong time, it shall be so.

Can someone pitch in to the comment sections for comic:fix ?
It’s mostly defensive fans arguing about people disliking the comic’s content. It usually results in dogpiling any negative commentary.
