So...Ebay!?
XD

I like the 20's style here. Very cool.

Why to advertise porny YCH to SWF-filter users anyway? It's kinda counter-productive.

Because this submission here IS SFW; there's a censored preview in there instead of just click-baiting and it's not my fault if someone has the filters turned on? To be fair, if the preview ain't enough, i'm gonna tag the YCH's link as NSFW.

Guess using journals to advertise porny YCH are counter-productive too, eh?

Welp, considering acceptable upload policy, preview isn't enough - "Mature" filter relates to any implied or advertised sexual activity (including porny YCHs) rather than just "naked boobs". Aside of that - yeah, submission itself isn't porny, but it's not like because it's porny that "clean" users would instantly, like, "Oh, I don't look out for porn, but since this dude has clean tumbnails for his porn, I should definitely check his porn out and order something - after all, it's CLEAN ADVERTISED porn, not just any other kind of porn". It really doesn't make any difference no matter if you advertise it in "general" or "mature" category. That's why I'm kinda curious, it's something I can't really comprehend .з.
Also yeah, journals have their own set of rules and basically "general" by default - it's fair to use them as a "mirror" to YCH as long as YCH itself is "mature"-labeled. But you can still be banned for implying or outright posting lewdness in your journal (I saw a couple users being "ticketed" for placing porn story examples in their journals). I hope that explains stuff. Sorry for being a prune anyway

"Nudity: Free of nudity of any kind, as well as outlines of genitalia, female nipples, or bulges. Nudity is defined as the open display of genitalia or exposed female nipples.
Sexual Situations: Free of sexual themes with exception of brief displays of affection, such as a kiss or hug."

While it's commendable that you are using the upload policy as a base for your argument, i want you to know that the submission can fall just as easily into the general rating as well into mature territory; as there are no bulges or exposed genitalia, and even your argument as suggesting it as porny is blurry, at what point something can go from tame to porny, in your point of view? Should i ever draw David of Michelangelo or Adam and Eve with the artistic censorship of leaves; i will have to rate it as something "porny" because of censorship? Does the pose looks provocative to you?

"Oh, I don't look out for porn, but since this dude has clean tumbnails for his porn, I should definitely check his porn out and order something - after all, it's CLEAN ADVERTISED porn, not just any other kind of porn" : you are speaking like i thumbnail every mature/adult thing i do as clean or something in order to get more views/comissioners, while i literally don't do it since the content tags do the job just fine; the message of this piece IS to advertise something mature, the submission itself is not. In the end wether this should be mature or not is completely subjective and trivial.

You saw, you saw, you saw. It's not uncommon to see either genitalia-less or censored pieces in extremely lewd poses and still be labeled as general. If i erase the censorship and make it nipple-less, would it be right to rate it as general? It DE-PENDS.

And, it's fine.

TL;DR: Every opinion is different, if you think you are completely right, i'm gonna get punished accordingly, if not, let's stop making a storm in a teacup, ok?

For me this argument is over, i'm not right and sadly so aren't you; and i will not reply anymore, good day.
