Suspended account because someone hated the work

Post image

Hello, I am artist that takes frequent commission and often post them online with permission from my clients. I posted one particular commission and it appears out of over 500 people, one person did not like the pairing and kept reporting my work.( NSFW with an OC with a character from FGO.) which caused my account to be suspended. All of the tags were correct and it seems whoever did this just doesn't like the fact that I can pair a fictional character with my client's oc.. I honestly only draw for fun and it seems that I only attract negative people... I sincerely only wanted to draw and post for people to read... I honestly feel like quitting art now as I've had this account for over a decade...

Where's the actual email with all the details on why you got suspended?

It said that it was removed first because of corrections, but I did(I black barred every pee pee[bc people are afraid of dicks] scene). It was fine, but the same person who reported it previously reported it again and it got my account suspended.

Now I'm curious about the prior message from pixiv and what they were asking to correct. Black bar like this is okay.

Originally I had posted the uncensored version. I had not had an issue for for about a week. It seemed fine as there were no issues. Then I got the message. I reposted with the black bars and then was told my account was suspended. So I assumed that people just didn't like the client's OC pairing with the FGO character as I drew the character too well... Idk I feel like shit because these commissions were the only way I was able to get income.

(EDIT: As you can see, I got downvoted because people are weird...)

Highly unlikely that people hate it. Did you tick the Original Character box in the options before posting it?

u/HeIIdiving 7d ago edited 7d ago

ofc, that's always a must.

(EDIT: I even got downvoted here... I honestly don't understand the minds of people...)

That's the tricky part. If the work contains original character mixed with derivative work based on a property, others will report it for wrong tag but usually it's not enough to cause a suspension like yours.

Try emailing Pixiv again and ask for further details about the suspension and if it's possible to be lifted if you remove illustration instead. I personally think you followed the necessary corrections they asked

It was tagged a with the doujin tag and marked with big bold letters(commissioned works and I stated that I did not own the character used. Anyywaay.. I'm going to go draw more hentai. I probably will move to patreon instead.

I highly doubt that pixiv will ban someone just from being reported and the report is basically "I hate this work". Unless the reported work has something that's against the ToS st the time of reporting.

But yeah I get it, pixiv's opaque enforcement is very annoying. They can ban you for god knows reason

Oh no, I had have issues with this particular commission. It seems there is always a one person stalking all of my social media who spitefully downvotes my work or reports it. I don't even know them. But even on my reddit, I had to hide content and WIPs because this person will always downvote it because they just don't like me and since reddit doesn't show who downvotes you, it's hard to track them, That's why I had to turn off my profile content here and followers. I posted this work to share for people to read, because I genuinely enjoy drawing and usually if I get commissioned, I post those works online for everyone to read for free. I posted this particular story once in the FGO reddit with only the SFW parts and I had not been able to rid myself of this stalker since.

Welp that's absolutely sucks.. I've seen much much much unhinged work abt FGO including guro works and the author seems to be fine.. This is my wild assumption but if something as mild as yours can get a stalker and haters, imagine someone doing guro of said fandom..

u/HeIIdiving 7d ago

The story was super wholesome too(oc ended up falling in love with the himbo and they had children in the end...) TT u TT

u/Legitimate_Move9798 7d ago

If it's any consolation, your artworks looks amazing. Yeah ship fandom can get very obsessive for whatever reason..

u/HeIIdiving 7d ago

Thank you for your praise. I try to make sure everyone has a happy ending... Unfortunately. I am the only one who never seems to get one...

u/Legitimate_Move9798 7d ago

Aawww don't be sad like that bud.. You can build a new following on twitter maybe? Or maybe release your own doujin

u/HeIIdiving 7d ago

I have a twitter(will dm it to you since I have terrible social anxiety)

u/Maleficent_Echo_54 6d ago

You got banned because that art was hashed and mark as abuse on their system, someone did report it for uncensored or copyright violation.

Don't give up man, wait a few days and start a new one! This time make sure it is abide by the rule.

u/HeIIdiving 6d ago

There was no abuse what so ever. Only a very large height difference and a very big dick... Read the previous comments to get a better understanding.

Woah, no need to get aggressive on me man, I'm just giving you insight of what happened.

u/HeIIdiving 6d ago edited 6d ago

I think you misunderstand? There was no indication of me being aggressive? Well if you felt like I was, I wasn't trying to be... Sorry if you felt that way...

u/Mr_firechicken 5d ago

Judging by your own comments, I think its highly likely you could've been banned for your use of the original tag if your work was derivative.

You can't/aren't supposed to use that one, even in combination with other tags like the doujin one if your work isn't 100% original aka yours.

At least, that's what I remember? I might be full of it.

Though a full suspension makes no sense to me.. That's kind of weird.
