Anyone have any clue as to whether it was just translations, or also AI generated stuff?

users openly advertise they write smut, futa, all kinds of stuff. The users nicknamed the place "smut hub". I labeled it adult. Its a crime noir. sex is almost a compulsory component of crime noir. ask my reader, its more of a romance. he can tell you that.

What I meant is, if it has too man sex scenes it might've been purged for that.

reading it? its a trilogy, and each of the three volumes is huge. Its over a million words, all together. *sheesh*

its a trilogy.
the first book? yeah, its smut-heavy.
but the second and third volumes in the series? aren't being questioned.
its... all one big story!
the smut content goes *way* down in second volume, as its the dark crime noir coming up.
then the third volume, is almost all hardboil crime noir, very little sex.
if you just look at volume one, it looks bad that way.
ignoring the second and third arcs (volumes) leaves out the tame parts that account for 2/3rds of the whole story!
thats cherrypicking one third of the story.
I call it a "genre morph"
starts out erotica, second volume is noir, third volume goes to all heavy dark noir.

never mind.
you act like that "email" link does anything. to tell anyone this.

Listen, the moderators are not under any obligation to provide links for every story that breaks rules and has to be taken down. Removing translations is the easiest and fastest way to prevent fraudulent people from stealing stories in other languages and trying to pass them off as their own story in English.

where did i write it has to be done by moderators? take a look at the thread explaining how to go about exposing translations.
it includes finding out about the original
so the link should be somewhere in the system to be implemented into a prompt. no workload for the mods...unless the mods r just rndly banning fictions without actually checking if the fiction is a translation or not, duh.

I'm not really complaining - I just stumbled onto this website from google yesterday, and seeing the rules against translations that makes perfect sense.

But god dang, I joined this website literally yesterday to read I Am Not A Goblin Slayer with a good way to keep track (a la reading list) and the next day the whole thing gets 404'd. Given the timing, it's only reasonable to assume that I am in fact to blame for the ban wave. I'm sorry everyone.

You wouldn't believe it, but I actually emailed Tony and he replied. Crazy what a little patience does to a man. You can get shit done.

cool.
Me?
I'm just nobody "another author here" 300 posts. I emailed weeks ago? no response for weeks and weeks.
You?
over 13,000 posts.
obviously in on this whole shadow banning, banning, translating, inner circle of all this.
yeah, of course you get an email back in minutes, you're a somebody.

but, thanks.
I appreciate it.

It's not 13000 posts actually, but the fact I live in Tony's basement.

oh. like "the gimp" in the movie "Pulp Fiction", huh. Gotcha. Hey, I try not to judge.
(come on, that was low hanging fruit, lol)

thanks wrath. I owe you one.

Wait... is this circling back to forming a cabal again...

nope!
if you people like letting bullied around and even off of RR by discord twits in their little circle jerks?
Keep doing nothing, you obviously like it. There's no helping you, to help you stand up for yourselves.
On that whole subject, whatever.

I'm reminded though, of a quote from the movie "Fight Club".

"I'd like to put a bullet between the eyes of every panda, that won't mate to save its own species."

some yuri discord, does not "allow" anyone to post yuri stories, without their consent or membership?
and that's on top of everything else. and that's the big market to shoot for, everyone knows it.
screw it. I don't care if you guys by and large don't. I'm not an author that has any pull to try to really make it there.
but what will you think when maybe next time its isekai, or whatever else some discord decides is "theirs".

everyone's basically not allowed on RR unless you let the discord fruitcakes give you a wedgie.
If you like it, that way? hey. you do you.

me, I got my own writing to worry about.
after all. a user claimed my writing is a shambles? said he looked.
funny, that was. I had a certain number of views that morning, before he said that.
I went after he said he read my stuff. Huh. I *still* had the same number of views.
he in fact, didn't read a thing, or it would have went up a view or two.
he looked at numbers and nothing else.

and even if he did read it.
same user? I just saw him. admitting, in a "review" thread. English, isn't his first language.
so... when he claimed my grammar and spelling and sentence structure was okay, but... I just didn't "give a good visduaslization" of the action?
I take *that* with a grain of salt.

what, ever.
I got other (writing) work to tend to.
enjoy getting wedgies on RR.
