That you don't write smut but like to read it?

I hear ya there. Looking at MINE is bad enough but yours ... oh wait, not supposed to admit that am I...

This was somehow posted to the wrong thread - but is even funnier in context here so it stays...

If you keep editing posts I already replied to, the Moderator John will come and steal your story

They work in mysterious ways.

Turning her into this is how you get their approval.

No it's not, I at least have never seen such a cover but many like the threadmakers that were less sexual.

There was nothing sexual about my cover. Like I told John, if someone thinks its sexual in nature, they are projecting. Some Women have bigger bodies. What they are doing is banning certain body types and body shapes.

As I told John in a support ticket:

Well John,
Lets keep in mind that you are calling a non-sexualized image of a woman who is fully clothed and fully covered who is standing in a neutral pose "incredibly sexual," which is very strange.

If a curvier woman or a woman who was slightly overweight saw this I think they would agree with me. Like if we posted a pic on facebook and someone said that, I'd genuinely think they were a pervert. Its pretty weird after all.

I cant imagine Facebook banning Women from posting fully clothed pictures of themselves because their bodily dimensions exceed the allowed parameters along with rejection responses such as: "not skinny enough" "breasts too big" "hips too wide" or maybe "not enough thigh gap" ?

As such I find this absurd."

wow, RR's gone even more down hill since it went pseudo-corporate in the last year. feels like they hire new mods who are deliberately antagonistic and hate the types of stories posted on RR.... unless it's something that the owner can cash in on.

i remember when RR was mostly good, the occasional random crazy mod aside,.

The only difference I notice between this cover and the rest of covers with female figures are

1 Your character has bigger breast than the average female on a RR cover, there are covers with what I estimate are similar large breast.
2 Your female character is foreward facing and the center of the cover, which is more rare
3 The breast are clearly accentuated and the shape is clearly seeable,

This combination of factors that would have been alone okay are together not okay apparently, yes big stories like that chest one have similar pictures but the only cove more sexual on RR than yours is (in my opinion) this

Apparently is that the size you need to have to get away.

Royal road hates its authors. Moderator John is just a code name. His real name is Moderator Womp because he's crying all of the time.

RR loves its lolis confirmed.

It's a legacy story. It is more than 2 years old and was subject to different rules back then (i.e. it was before Google contract which dictate this)

Keep in mind, the site doesn't have active moderation to comb through all the content, so leaves older stories alone and focuses on bullying the new ones instead, as they are most likely to be displayed along with the ads.

You could report that story, and they would delete it.

 

[Zagaroth]

Even if you publish it on RR, you will get comments that complain about romance. I have the romance tag on, I added clearly to the synopsis what the story is about, still get reviews and comments that say it is bad because there is romance.

You will only enjoy RR only if you are doing a murderhobo LitRPG.

There must be something about your story that draws in people who are not looking for romance to start reading it anyway.

I've had my romantic story on there for two years and I have never received a complaint about the romance or similar content.

Just remember, a story called "he who fights monstrs" did well on RR.
That is a story about some guy who preaches communist ideals over and over.

A story that provides a substantial income to the site?

If I were to buy the series on the Amazon right now, the site owners would earn 8 dollars without even leaving their beds. It sold over 20 thousand copies, which, for the Censorship Road, there was 160,000 $ of income without them even lifting their finger.

What in the world are you people writing about? I have human sacrifice, cannibalize, sex slavery, public executions, and even a scene where goblins ate a little girl in graphic detail in my novel and no one over there has batted an eye.

Thats exactly the point myself and the others were making.

They are making a big deal about my cover and refusing to approve it because they claim it is 'incredibly sexual' in nature, when the girl on my cover is fully covered and clothed. She just had big breasts and hips. She was curvy...and that was it.

Meanwhile, they allow the things you mentioned on their site. So cannibalism, murder, mutilation etc are okay, but a fully clothed woman who has big boobs is not.

Its really insane. Thats why this thread got so big; people are tired of the censorship and double standards over there.

We understand that. Yes, she has big boobs. You don't need to explain that since that was understood already. But like I said earlier many times, her big boobs are fully covered, as is the rest of her body.

I refuse to bend the knee to their bullshit, as do a lot of other people on here apparently.

That's really odd, I saw your cover and it didn't seem to bad to me I mean this is mine.

As you can see Anna's not to far off of your cover and they approved it almost instantly. The only thing I can think of is that everything about my story was approved almost three years ago so maybe they were different back then.
