Hey y'all,


I gotta inform everyone about these upcoming changes.


Today Pixiv announced changes to the Fanbox service which will come into effect on December 15th 2022. Here's a snippet:

-------------------

Many transactions take place on BOOTH, pixivFANBOX, and the pixiv Requests feature.

Some were found to violate the pixiv Terms of Use, Article 14 "Prohibited Conduct", Item 26 "Using the Services to display, sell, purchase, register, or engage in other transactions involving the products set forth below".


Furthermore, the rules or policies of Brand Protection for Card Networks transactions for content that is patently offensive, unethical, or promote criminal activity; such as, by way of example and not limitation:

・Sexual exploitation of a minor

・Incest

・Bestiality

・Rape (or any other non-consensual sexual behavior)

・Non-consensual mutilation of a person or body part 


Under the Service Master Terms of Use, we ask that all users check for items that include the above content on BOOTH, pixivFANBOX, and the pixiv Requests feature, and if such content is found, delete the items or set them to private.

-------------------

So yeah, what does that mean for my Fanbox?

For now I'll have to wait for the new ToS and see what they exactly will be like. I already have 1-2 backup plans in case I gotta remove everything on here.


I was planning to close my Fanbox for one month in january anyway to update some things.


I'll try and release 2-3 animations and the December calendar picture set until the 15th December, just so you know in case you aren't sure about staying subscribed til that date and if it's worth your money.


Gonna keep you up-to-date once I know more. I'll most likely make all posts on my Fanbox hidden one day before and see how things go.


If you have questions, leave them in the comments.

Sad news today but I hope I can still support and enjoy your animations after next month. Thanks for the update.

Hope you make it through this disaster and let me know what other sites you're going to.

Thanks for the update. Fanbox is dead now, far as I’m concerned. I’d recommend subscribestar if they didn’t take a year to approve accounts. Hope a good alternative presents itself. Will follow wherever you end up going.

I have an approved Substar account but it's not really an option cause they don't allow Paypal, pretty sure the majority here is using Paypal.

Max

Yes, that is correct. I also use PayPal and would be very reluctant to pay fees in any other way. It's not only the subscription fees, but also the fees for Pixiv if you have a fan box. And with another provider it would probably be similar.

its sad. but even if people moved to substar? that doesn't mean mastercard won't come for them next as well. I hope this stuff is rescinded or at least given more strict guidelines but for now we can only wait.

Yeah this has been big news. Noble from Lost Pause did a video on it on YouTube. FANBOX is gonna go the way of Patreon and Instagram. By the time they pivot a 180. They will have lost more than half they business.

Just FYI I already have a Substar account. And will sub to you there if that is one course you choose.

Are you still taking requests?

Post a censored image on here, and then link to Mega for the actual content. I frankly prefer Mega. You can change the access code to the archive each month for subs only.

chris

nope, my old Mega archives were being reported within one week usually and it's a waste of time reuploading it again and again, I have my own server to host content. Also, any loli content, censored or not, won't be allowed from what it seems.
