FUCK YOU, DEVIANTART!
I'm afraid to bitch over at DA, so I'm gonna bitch here.
I just got a note saying that my R/Hr fanart "Moonlight" [link] has been deleted because someone "reported" it, and: Upon review a member of staff determined that the characters depicted in a nude or erotic fashion in this deviation are established as being underage. Removed as violation of policy.
I'll just say it right now: WHAT. THE . FUCK?!!!!!!!!!!!!! The picture in question depicts Ron and Hermione spooning naked. Now, I was unaware that these characters were completely frozen in time and were not capable of being depicted at different ages! I mean, this is ridiculous. I was NOT intending for the characters to be underage in that picture. I was drawing them as adults. End of story.
I don't know what perverted moron saw it and was like, "Ooooh, they... they must be fourteen! Yeah, that's hot right. I'd better report this so I can compensate for my own shameful thoughts." Whoever you are: congratulations, you're an idiot! :-D Fuck you very much.
You can BET I'm contesting this. You should have seen me trying to write a calm and collected letter to the DA help desk. I think I succeeded (no expletives at all!), so let's hope someone over there has a brain cell.
I mean, you want an age? Fine. Hermione is 23 in the picture and Ron is 22. There's your fucking age. They're not minors. They never were minors. And you know what else, DA? I don't know if you realized this, but they're also a series of lines and colors on a two-dimensional surface -- aka, a drawing. Even if they were minors, I personally wouldn't give a fucking shit. They're not real; it would affect society in no way whatsoever. That rule is so fucking stupid, especially since I didn't even break it in the first place!
