Hey everyone. So the recent Shin Hati and Ashley Graham were temporarily hidden by Patreon for being too hyperrealistic. I ended up removing them, along with Grace Ashcroft and Nico, as a preemptive measure.

I have to try and be better in the future to not let the images become too "realistic" looking. Sometimes I just want the images to look good and high quality, which inadvertently makes them look more realistic. So I need to find a good balance.

Luckily, so far, Patreon has been very lenient and merely informing me of these posts instead of outright suspending/banning my account. And for that, I'm grateful. But I'm also going to do my best to avoid it from happening as much as possible in the future, out of chance that they may not play nice anymore and just straight up ban the account instead.

I know people who draw/paint themselves so good it's indistinguishable from a photo. Should they stop as well because it's hyperrealistic? I'd say perhaps it's time for a different platform for those pictures in all honesty.

The biggest issue is knowing beforehand which "those pictures" are. Since I never intend to make any piece hyperrealistic. Some were obvious in hindsight, like the Ashley one I probably should've known. But as I'm making them, that's not generally something I have in mind. I just need to get better at not pushing the realism too far.

Was looking at the shin hati one. That's not even your highest realism one. It just looks very good but it's clearly art in every way.

naikedart

Yeah. That's why it gets very confusing. Like I don't believe the Shin Hati one would've confused a person into thinking it was real. My guess, is that it's not an actual person that reviews these, but rather it's some sort of AI moderation that detects it and looks for signs of hyperrealism.

WindsingerEU

Yeah it is, not AI but an older system. Which they don't control very well.

Any way to post in a way that doesn't incur the wrath of Patreon? Like a Safe for Patreon version on Patreon but the actual Pic on Discord or X?

naikedart

Unsure. They review off-site behavior. So I will think about it before doing something impulsive. But I guess also make a habit of saving any image you like, in case they may get deleted for whatever reason.

I like the hyperrealistic pics. We need a way to view them as well. Whether or not you intended for them to be like that.

Do you really want to be on a platform that watches what you do off platform? It's none of their business.

Patreon is by far the best platform for being able to generate an income. As much as I may dislike a lot of decisions Patreon does, the alternatives are still much worse. So it's not really a matter of which platform I "want" to be on.

And The GTA Girl? Can you at least give us a link or something to download it?

As mentioned in another comment, they review off-site behavior. Especially if I'm directly directing people to certain content that isn't allowed on Patreon. So providing a link would essentially be the same as posting it directly on Patreon.
