Auto-deletion appeal?

Posted under General

This topic has been locked.

I don't mind a mod or Janitor deleting a post because it's bad but it's a little uncalled for when the reason is annoyingly rude such as "stupid post" or "fuck no" as a reason.
Instead I think it should be "not good" or "no".
But that's just me, I don't know what anyone else thinks of it.

Well, anyone can flag a post for deletion, whether the reason is valid or not. It's not actually going to be deleted if it's a stupid reason, though, and the person the flagged it is likely to be banned.

But from how I understand it, when it's flagged for deletion it's treated like other posts in the moderation queue. So if a mod doesn't "rescue" it, it'll be auto-deleted after three days.

I will likely have more in the future. Here is a couple quick, I feel important ones.

post #339592 was deleted. post #339588 was accepted. These two images are the EXACT same artist, same style, same pose, et cetera. The only difference between them is the character shown. I would like post #339592 brought back.

There are also two posts that are part of a series of comics/4koma that were not accepted: post #334750 and post #338689 .

Lastly, there are a few posts that I feel are of a good enough quality for re-evaluation. I didn't go through all of the posts deleted since the last time I asked in this topic, these are only a few I saw on the first page of deleted posts.

post #338550
post #335730
post #338555
post #335880

Thank you for your time.

Undeleted the 4koma. Didn't do anything with the first two because I wouldn't have approved either personally, and specifically remember seeing them in the queue and passing.

I would have undeleted one of the last four but someone already did.

Thanks.

If the Rosa one isn't brought back, I'm going to self-delete the Barbariccia one if a janitor doesn't do it first. I see no reason for both not to be up if one of them is allowed.

For once, I don't see anything wrong with the first two images there. I don't see why they have a negative score and I'm guessing those are from people who just want to spite you.

Eh? It's not like that sort of x-ray/visible insides is a universally accepted or liked thing, so it doesn't seem very odd that people might have voted it down (or up, for that matter). Anything that's a fairly specific fetish will have both fans and detractors.

Well even then, some x-rays are nice but I don't particularly care for either of those two images.

Not that I mind in this case, but generally speaking you shouldn't do this. Whether you intend it or not, some people might see this and think they can hold good images hostage and threaten to delete them if their less good uploads don't get accepted. Granted mods have the power to fix such situations, but only if made aware of them. It's better to just not go there.

If something gets accepted, just leave it as is. It's not like the two images were part of a series, or that you had to have one to understand the other.

Let me just say, after reading what you said, I took the time to look through the first 5 to 6 pages of posts tagged with cross section, and they all have positive scores.

Even post #288821 has a score of 30.

I don't think that argument is gonna work here.

In this special case, I see leaving one and letting the other die as entirely, unequivocally biased. It's not like they're vastly different images. The only thing about them that makes them unique is the character portrayed. They're the EXACT same style, EXACT same colors (none), EXACT same artist, EXACT same everything. If one is acceptable, the other should be acceptable as well. If one is not acceptable, the other should not be acceptable as well.

I could be arguing up a storm about this issue. Instead, I'm letting it die by deleting the one that got a pass. You guys have to do absolutely nothing here. If people look at this as "holding an image hostage" (which it isn't, I'm simply treating these two fairly equal images on fairly equal terms), you've just proven you don't bow to threats.

I don't care anymore, because it's done.
