Should I post on DA again?

Oh dear an opinion catered you a node bleed 😍🥰😁 hugs and thanks

Your material is suitable for anywhere, and stuff DA or those fools who complain on DA, if they can't see that. Now having a nosebleed for having said what I think :), Now safely back on my fence, you do what you want, but do so in the knowledge your content is loved by lots of people :3

LOL :D Yeah for a moment there I thought you were going to make a stand :) LOL Yeah I am feeling pretty burnt by them and still don't trust them... so I am really thinking I do want to make sure people know I am posting, and where to find me, but I really don't want to share my work fully there anymore... I just don't want to go through all the pain and hell I did with them if someone decides they think my stuff is "not suitable" for DA.

As you can tell, I find fences comfortable :D, though the fact you're 5-2 against it and still feel burned by your previous experience, suggests you don't want to. That is a bit too close to me giving a thought, I'll climb back on that comfortable fence:) LOL

Okay Pro and Con... Blame Karen for making me think more about it :) Posting to DA PRO 1) More exposure to public of my work, as right now my work is mostly hidden on sites people might not be going to. 2) Hopefully getting more fans of my work, which might mean they will join Patreon CON 1) Have to create different versions of the pictures which show nakedness 2) I have no control anymore over if something is acceptable or not on the DA site, and someone can complain and get my stuff banned if they don't like it 3) To get the most out of the functionality I would have to buy a Full Membership - additional costs 4) Additional work for posting panels. 5) I really don't want to give DA money for what they did to me, they were rude and crude, and the people who dealt with my pictures being banned showed they didn't care for Transformation/TG art at all, so were bias. And they ignored my complaints about the issue when I sent to their complaint department. Um - there is more Cons and to be honest I do still feel bitter about how they treated me, and the things they said. Um...

Thanks Karen, I have in fact already been doing that but that has really not made much of an impact. which is where people state that I should be posting the stories there, but delayed and then links to what I have the full thing, or Patreon. I think the thing that I have now is I have control over my material, I can post what I want on my site, and there are some rules I have to follow here, but they are not going to really cause me issues. In DA, the rules seem to change depending on who complains, or who reviews your work. I want to get more Patreons - not really for money but for fans :) Because it is nice to know lots of people are viewing my stuff and hopefully enjoying it :) I will admit something - I got more comments on DA :) LOL :) But while I like comments, I know people are enjoying my stuff here because they are supporting me - and that is awesome. Argh - I think I am overthinking it.... really it is "Do I want to post my material again to DA in Panel releases, or do I not." I feel a Pro and Con Coming up :)

Goldendawn

Wow coming from you - so on the fence :) LOL - Mostly it is just trying to find out what people think more than making the decision for me :) LOL

Goldendawn

Consider posting on DA as an advertisement. Use links to the sites where you want to have your true renderings.

It has to be up to you, and anything we think is just opinion, so do or don't, stellar advice as usual, really coming off that fence :D

Thanks Alex (hugs) and you are right, I will still decide what to do even no matter the vote, but I wanted to hear your lovely points of view, because I have realised I do tend to make rash decisions :P LOL

Goldendawn

I think regardless of how the votes end, you should do what you feel is best. Im sure you could get more patreons if you do decide to post there again as well but this is a decision you will know what is best as it pertains to you. Regardless, ill still support whatever you choose, i still go on DA, Raider-99 there btw, and have been a fan of yours for quite some time because of DA

Alex Flores

thanks Hun - and yeah... the last experience would be why I would basically not allow sexual stuff to be shown... just don't want to go through that hassle and rubbish I had last time.

Goldendawn

I think this comes down to what you're comfortable with. Posting to DA does provide the chance for new followers and fans...but at the same time, if you're having reservations, then I would tend to listen to them (at least for now) If you happy with your status quo, then I'd be inclined to hold off. If you're keen to get your work back out there and DA is the best way to do that, then I'd say go far it, and use your previous experience as a guide on how to proceed. (Not ideal advice, but basically, follow your intuition)
