The not quite mega Krystal mailing list.


Sabre

Recommended Posts

Things have gotten quite mad in the Krystal fanart thread. Flamewars, ever decreasing art standards and inconsitant, seemingly random censorship.

All stuff I've ranted about before, granted. So, I propose a mailing list. Reply saying you want to be added to the list, and from time to time we'll send our pick of the Krystal arts, as well as any that were banned from the main thread, along with any other high end SF art.

Just to be clear, this is NOT a Krystal filth exchance. Sending smut will get you struck off the list.

The first act of quality control, no poser, no traces, and no render composates unless there are something really special. Anyone up for this?

Current list:

Sabre, Julius Quasar, Yorokobi-Ageru, Z!FF, Kursed, Vydrach

Yes, but it's not in the thread. It's via PM.

You add your name to the list, then every so often each member sends there favourites to the other members and vice versa. This way, if you don't like the way it's being run, you can unlist yourself, or pursaude others to not include certain stuff. As the meercat says "Simples".

I try to be consistent in what I moderate. Granted, I can't catch everything. But calling it "Random" is intellectually dishonest. I do not remove images unless they are image policy violations. As I said, I can't catch everything (I have a life besides, SFO, you know).

To be honest, I'd love to have a no censorship policy. But sadly, that doesn't work. Such places become nests of porn, guro, and trolls.

Though I do agree with you that the flamewars within that thread are getting out of hand. The original intent of the fanart board was for artists to post their work, though that thread has become a clearinghouse for all art of a single character regardless of whether or not the artist is a member here.

I have given serious consideration to locking that thread on numerous occasions.

I would rather you not use the PM system for this, but I won't stop you. Also, don't expect me to disable the 45sec flood control.

If there was a way to actually find out which members are lying about their age, we could create a more artistic mature forum and it would also be restricted to people that are obviously immature. Then again, we have, for what I know, no way to do that, since 13 kids could sneak up saying they are 18 years old. And opening forums for people that have 1000+ posts is also unfair. I know this is going to be against the "no pointing other sites" behavior , but KLA suffers from what DZ just pointed out, or at least suffered from that last time I was there (2 years ago).

To comment on that, Im 15 and have seen all there is to be seen, which is unfortunant in my case. So whatever you do, keep the image policy in place. Cause some of the stuff I've seen, cant be unseen.

Good thing I think like an artist, or I would never be able to live with myself after seeing some "different" artwork of Krystal on DeviantArt.

That was just a far away idea, don't worry, we won't turn this place out with mature content anytime soon. And remember, there's a difference between artistic nude and porn.

Trust me, I can tell the difference. One step into my school, you know porn. One step into the renniasance era, you know art.

I have to go with sabre on this one. A naked body, doing NOTHING but a pose (artistic), it's considered a nude, not porn. There are a lot of ways to make a picture mature, without making it porn.

There will never be porn here, in any form.

The reason is as simple as it is important. Putting porn here will reduce our possible audience.

Is your art the best of krystal art?

Well, the Krystal Art thread is gone. 4 years of stuff ended by pillocs. No matter. (It's all digital you see) we can still pick the bones of thread clean, and keep up to date the old fasioned way.

Here's how it will work. You can

A- send me pm of any krystal stuff you find, I'll pick my faves and send it to the member on a semi regular basis. (put KA in the subject bar)

B- Make your own best off to all, put BoKA in the subject field. Try to limit yourself to 1 list a week though if you're doing that. I'll sort out the details for ease of use a bit later.
