This is just insane, I received this note tonight:

devart said the following:

Your deviation Sleeve Burster was reported for Mature Tag Needed. The report was reviewed by a member of the Staff and action was taken, marking the report as Resolved. Additionally, the following comment was provided:

Immediate action taken.

First of all, whoever reported this needs to grow some ballz and deal with the fact that showing some skin isn't mature. In fact, the DA staffer who changed this should also get a pair and not kowtow to every little complaint on here.

What, should every artist on here drawing girls just automatically flag them for "mature" content. OH SHIT, BREASTS!! AAAHH MY EYES!! Why don't I just post black bars on here with fancy titles, would that then not offend anyone? This site is becoming f**king retarded. I'll draw my women in big burkas from now on to post on here.

Thanks DA for being a SUCH a haven of free expression!!

I think it was more because of the Nipples than the skin that was the problem. Many feel that nipples being visible from underneath clothing is a mature topic

You're lucky you even got to keep the piece. The DA admins are idiots who think if it isn't retarded fanart or faux-artsy photo-nudes that IT'S CROSSING THE LINE RAARGH and the whole system is just idiotic.

If nothing else, your work would always be welcomed at The Process...

Well great now I'm gonna be up all night trying to figure this one out. Oh well. For some reason I'm tempted to alter an old Frank Zappa quote for this one but I've already made a fool of meself so I'll quit while I'm ahead.

dude, people are stupid. First the report must talk with you, not do he want. On my opinion this is not mature. I hope things are going good

It seems there is some rumbling across different parts of banging on what is mature and not in dA. And with the disparity between the mods, these rules are brought down with a varying degree of results it gives no clear standard.

i've seen some of your work and i eenjoy it. i saw 0 mature content on sleeve burster. maybe the admin got offended by the chest showing a bit and if he was maybe if we send him a swimsuit edition of SI he'll explode

I have been getting the same thing! I was tagged 4 times yesterday for violations of not using the accursed mature tag!

~barretxiii Jun 9, 2008, 8:21:05 AM

That's total BS. It isn't nearly "mature" enough to warrant a tag.

Take a look at one of mine. [link]

If I said it myself it has more flash showing than yours and has no tag. 'Course not many have seen it but still.
