I hate the administration.
Now that I have your attention, I want to complain about the approval process, it is much easier to have your uploads taken away than to have them given to you, there are no clear criteria for uploading "quality" content, simply if the approvers who saw your posts did not like it, they will delete it, to reach the level of approver you have to upload 1000 posts, something extremely difficult, it even seems like they do it on purpose so that there are no more approvers.
I will continue uploading works until I no longer have places, and when that happens I will go to other pages, because my goal is only to share works from my favorite franchise. Besides, in this forum, at least for me, no administrator or approver has ever responded to me.

You know what? You make a very good argument there, mate. I too, am in the same position as you. Being a newbie here, it kinda hurts that when try to post something that you're passionate about, most approvers just tend to brush it off, either from a lack of interest, or worse, having a unfair bias or favoritism towards other stuff. Not gonna point any fingers to anybody, but it's pretty frustrating when this happens, A LOT.

Most recently, some of my posts failed to get approved, which nearly made me want to quit being on the site altogether.
And when I even try to upload what they want/what's trending with folks today, it still doesn't get noticed, or approved, which makes me scratch my head. It makes me wonder, does this site really expect the best of the best, or are they expecting a lil' too much?

But despite that, I pressed on, hoping that things can change, for the better, or am I just being too hopeful?

Let's just hope our responses doesn't fall on deaf ears.

Since the holiday season is almost over and some time has passed, guess it's my turn:

https://danbooru.donmai.us/posts/8597443?q=status%3Adeleted+user%3ANoIdea4GoodName: Lots of good details on her gear/weapons, shame it didn't get approved.
https://danbooru.donmai.us/posts/8480950?q=status%3Adeleted+user%3ANoIdea4GoodName: Part of a series of Touhou girls with cars, 2 similar artworks got approved already.
https://danbooru.donmai.us/posts/8480608?q=mikhail_n762+status%3Adeleted: Only deleted post from an otherwise consistently high quality artist.
https://danbooru.donmai.us/posts/8465893?q=status%3Adeleted+user%3ANoIdea4GoodName: Ditto.
https://danbooru.donmai.us/posts/8510777?q=status%3Adeleted+user%3ANoIdea4GoodName: Similar commissioned OC artworks were approved in the past.
https://danbooru.donmai.us/posts/8445545?q=status%3Adeleted+user%3ANoIdea4GoodName: Failed on ion's appeal, there's nothing really major I can point out.
https://danbooru.donmai.us/posts/8610885?q=status%3Adeleted+user%3ANoIdea4GoodName: Not sure about this one either.

Hello administrators/censors, I don't mean to offend danbooru's rules, but could I be allowed to upload these entries? According to the rules, there are no clear criteria for uploading ‘high quality’ content, and unfortunately the approver who approved my posts didn't like the posts I uploaded and they deleted them. I recognise that everyone's sexuality is different and I respect everyone. But sadly, not everyone does. You can take a look at my posts and they should all be allowed to be uploaded: because there are posts just like them and similar to them that have been successfully uploaded! And there are posts even explicit and questionable on danbooru! (Common sense, non-subjective, posts with exposed nipples and other r18 sensitive parts), even if you don't like the ones I've uploaded, you shouldn't double standardise. Of course, I am not targeting you, as you have not reviewed my uploaded posts. I'm taking things at face value. I've already complained about all the posts below, so I'll just have to put them here. Hopefully you can get them in line with the rules and uploaded.

This is the example (not me upload):
post #8580877
post #8499891
post #8430809
post #8404563
post #7692875

Those are my upload but delete:

they include R18, but i think they should be upload

Hey there, this thread is for experienced users (supposedly approver+) to look at and provide feedback. It's not for you to provide feedback.

Took a look at the disapproved uploads you listed, and for most of them the issue is bad perspective for the legs/feet. This can result in either the legs appearing broken, or the feet appearing disjointed, which are all types of bad anatomy. Bad anatomy is very difficult to get approved, while being very easy to flag at the same time.

I see, but I don't think it's exactly bad anatomy, there's a lot going on with the perspective and the artist's drawing. You doesn't need allow all have to be uploaded, can I get a few of them uploaded as successfully as possible? After all, I personally don't think it's so bad that all of them have to be deleted.

Here are a few of my other deleted entries that don't have any obvious bad anatomy in them:

(There is some tickling in there, not bad anatomy)

I would approve none of them. The perspective is pretty bad, with the feet appearing way to large.

Approvers approve uploads based on quality, not only rule-abiding. The uploads you mentioned above are all fine quality-wise, while also not breaking any rules. Explicit images are allowed on Danbooru. There are no double standars going on on here.

ok

Hey! If it's been a couple of days and my posts haven't been approved but also not deleted, is this the right place to talk about it? I have a few posts that I'm kinda confused on why it's been so long. Is it just that approvers haven't seen it yet?

i wouldn't worry about it too much, sometimes it can take a long time for posts to get approved. i've personally had a few posts expire, get appealed by someone, then get successfully approved. if your posts don't get approved, you can always link them here to get feedback.
