On NSFW posts and public service announcements in general ... (Patreon)

OK, so a heads up that there's going to be a number of text updates about what's going on with the logistics sides of things with the production of Exiern including overhauling as much as possible as well as the realities of the funding sides of things but before we launch into all of that (it'll be over subsequent future updates in the days ahead), just a head's up about the nature of the content.

I went to set up the latest Exiern page (Last Request) in its public version form to release on the Patreon at the same time as the page on the site. However, the AI filter blocked it being a free page (as opposed to be locked behind a paying tier) because of "implied nudity". Which admittedly is actually pretty obvious as it's clearly obviously actual nudity hidden behind the minimum amount of speech balloons that still qualifies as one.

Anyway, it's all a bit hit and miss. Fist of the North Star (the latest Dark Reflections: Chaos chapter cover) got picked up by the AI NSFW filter even though there's no nudity even implied (unless bare midriffs now count and I missed the memo) but the Victoria's Secret one's public version did not and that's not so much implied as flat out all but out there bar some desperate attempts of the speech balloons to try and preserve a modicum of decency (and likely failing).

So that's why there's no post of this week's page for open access here, you'll have to go to this link in order to see it.

More on this subject in the days ahead but I promise there won't be more of these kinds of posts than we absolutely need in the next few weeks.
