My Personal Beef with FA... by Pyra Jya-Luquay

Personally, I'm firmly against CP and always have been. That's not the issue I personally have with FA right now. On top of a laundry list of various issues I've had with FA over the years, the thing that actually set me over the edge was basically being told my characters could be considered underage because of 1. my art style and 2. their species. Pyra (my Vulpix) is canonically 37-55 depending on the time setting, but she looks way younger because I go off the thousand-year lifespan Ninetales are supposed to have (i.e. that implies a very slow aging process). Her husband Kent (a Zoroark) is five years younger than her, but always looks way older due to him "aging normally". While I never had anything "intimate" drawn up with them, I did have some rather...risque short stories planned. Now I can't even post them there with this ban because I literally describe Pyra's Vulpix form as "looking like a 12-y.o. girl despite being much older". While it may get off on being a written description and not a visual depiction, fact is FA would still likely say "OMG, IT'S A KID VULPIX GETTING F-ED IN THE A BY A MIDDLE-AGED ZOROARK!" despite Pyra being a full-grown adult. The whole "We don't care about mental/emotional maturity" thing doesn't fly with me. Full-grown adult means full-grown adult, regardless of how they look! There are literally adults who are stuck with a perpetual baby-face and kid-looking bodies irl, but they're still allowed to freaking drink when asked for an ID. I can say this because I know several people like that personally. That's why I'm irate still...

    I agree with you there, I don't like how they're considering every single chibi, even if they're fullgrown adults, to all be "mInOrS". and I don't like how they're banning species like eevee, riolu, gatomon, veemon, impmon, etc just because they're cute and chibi looking. I've seen plenty adult eevees and vulpixes out there, and even gatomons and impmons. and I've heard that these characters, even other chibis that aren't those species, are often taking part in adult situations. what next, they gonna ban aggretsuko for being adult chibis too? you even get people irl such as myself that looks alot younger than their age. heck i'm almost 24 now and i still look like (and often get mistaken as) a teenager. like just because I look 15 doesn't mean that I am D: furaffinity is really messed up, their whole species and chibi nsfw ban is not cool, cos like what you mentioned, adults can still be adults no matter how young and cute they look. they're still allowed to do adult things and not be bossed around and treated like a little kid. because they're the legal age, and they're old enough to do what they like. and I don't just mean characters, I also mean it happens irl too, like myself and anyone else who looks younger than their age. let us have our freedom please.. X.X /nay sorry if any of this came off rude, if I was then it wasn't at you don't worry. just wanted to say that I totally agree with it all, that's all ^-^;

    In pokemon there is literally the everstone to prevent evolution and also the old treecko thing too. Heck it is in theory for pokemon that have stone based evolution to literally only be a day old and fully evolved as well and FA would turn around and count it as an adult with their new policy. And don't even get me started on how digimon are literally able to jump all over their evo lines. I may just be trying to hit the major points I'd make vs the full page rant of my own I'd have just on that part of it because there are oh so many flaws with what they are doing and it really does not help that one of the people in charge of it called mew an embryo.

    Yeah, I'm in full agreement about how they determine what is an adult extremely flawed especially with how many canonical counter points from series they are trying to blanket ban on model species from and also censoring people for their art styles too.

    Furaffinity, as much as we complain, it's for fun, few people respond to tickets, mine literally left it as seen, they didn't respond either despite my concern about having pokemons that are literally abdl and I spoke with furaffinity and he never responded to the ticket and I wrote to them on Twitter, the only thing that matters to them is the money that we leave them at the service of the Fa and they are not there for us artists, that is what they have made clear by allowing various communities of babyfur artists, pokemons and digimons to leave furaffinity when they feel their entire page is at risk
