Wrongful Flag - Tumblr Posts
Guess What I Just Found Out?
You know that picture I reblogged for Endemic Evolution Chapter 6?
The one the moderators decided to say was too adult because something in my post was deemed adult under their guidelines?
I went back to the original poster’s link for the image in question.
And guess what?
It’s still there.
It’s not flagged.
Which means that I wasn’t censored for the image.
I was censored for written content in CLEAR VIOLATION of Tumblr’s own guidelines.
Tumblr is at fault. They broke their own guidelines.
So here’s how it’s going to go down. I’m going to make a new post tomorrow morning when I won’t have to worry about whatever moderators thought they could get away with censoring my written work, which said writing is clearly covered as NOT BEING CONSIDERED PORNOGRAPHIC by their OWN GUIDELINES, using the original image by copying the link and pasting it. Then I’ll copy the text to make the new post. Finally, I will delete the original post.
Of course, I’ll credit the original poster of the image in question as the source material.
But, yeah. Tumblr or whatever moderators were responsible for this censorship, y’all screwed up big time. And if I were of a mind to and had the funds, I could drag you all to court for it to prove my case. And I’m confident I’d win.
So do me a favor, moderators. Get off my back, and trust my judgement. Or barring that, actually TALK TO ME about what violated, how, and why, instead of FREAKING STONEWALLING ME or pointing me back to guidelines that clearly don’t answer my questions sufficiently! Honestly, why else do you think I contacted the help desk in the first place?
Rant over. Victory party shall commence tomorrow morning when y’all get to read the chapter again and I breathe life once more into a series that has long been in hibernation.
Omni out!
