There is one thing I wanted to question but forgot till now! What are anthro fluffies? I don’t mean like “ what does this mean?” I am subscribed to both tags (and will miss the furry bait rest in pepperronies go back to e63 where you belong ) but as in “what is a properly done anthro fluffy” I can be trusted with this knowledge I swear.

I ask cause I may or may not have a small anthro fluffies idea akin to happy tree friends and want my anthems to look and feel right

He what
Marakasaya1 included a multi-panel scene of drawn child rape in one of his comics.
I don’t mean to be smug and I’m trying not to be, but I’ve been told that my Bluebell & co characters are sort of a benchmark for how far the “anthro” idea can reach. Go farther than that and you’re going off-limits into “furry” territory. Lord only knows its taken me (and mods like @Virgil and @Mr_Owl) a LONG time and lots of trial-and-error to tweak my anthros into their present state.

I’m kind of curious if my anthros will pass, they do use fluff speak although I’ve never actually made any art of them speaking, and I do my best to make them look like fluffies and not just generic anthros but I’m still a bit worried. I know one of my anthro pieces is a bit suggestive looking just because of the pose I used and the lack of proper clothing because I didn’t have an idea for an outfit yet so I just put some type of bra and underwear type thing on her so I can definitely understand if a piece like that may be pushing it but hopefully as things go on I’ll be able to understand the new rule better I’m just a bit unclear on it currently lol, one of my anthros is a maid so I hope that wouldn’t be considered too like sexually undertoned? Not sure of the correct term, but I just know sometimes maid outfits are viewed as a bit of a sexy thing. Anyway I do understand the purpose of the rule, I just hope I don’t make any mistakes when it comes to following it! I’ll definitely do my best!

From what I’ve seen of your anthros they all look OK.
I would say your anthros are recognizable as fluffies

Are there any examples of anthros that didnt count as fluffies and were bsically just fursonas (not that theres anything wrong with that, jerry)

SO MANY. Some creators see a ready-made small community where they can gain quick notoriety so they slap the word “fluffy” on their oh so cool and edgy furry character, make them drop an L or an R here and there, and call it a day.
And there’s plenty wrong with that, Newman

Sorry I didn’t mention you or your epic anthro-work, but I didn’t want to speak for you.

Alright, barring any unforeseen edits from this point forward, we currently believe Rule 6 will read:
6: No Pornography - Since “pornography” is a very broad term that can be construed in a number of ways, it is defined hereafter as photographs or videos of human beings wearing so little clothing that they would be arrested for being seen thusly clothed on most public beaches in the United States.
Furthermore, artwork and stories that are made for the sole purpose of being porn are not allowed on this site and will be removed.
Posts that violate this rule include, but are not limited to:
Nude pinup art
Sexual activity that is not in service to a story or joke
Blatant Fetish art

There is another rule that we are looking at editing, but if we do choose to edit this one it will actually loosen some restrictions on storytelling, so the changes we propose there shouldn’t negatively effect anyone.

Well that seems more than reasonable. Glad things that are in service to stories will be unaffected.

What happened to the grandfather clause? So much art has been deleted.

Which works were you wanting to be exceptions?
We’re still debating what needs to be removed.
