Just noticed how limited I was... and some of my posts are pending approval from many weeks ago. What delays that? Can I somehow delete some to get some slots back? And why hasn't some been approved?

In my experience, it is mostly the posts that look somewhat "young" that are just left pending forever, because no potential approver wants to be responsible for approving them.

On e621 it says that you may pm a mod/janitor when one of your posts is nearing auto-deletion. I guess the same applies here. At least that's what I'm doing after 3 weeks or so, when one of my posts is left pending.

Honestly I only had one that could be mistaken for that, and they deleted it. And everything else is sort of up to interpretation maybe. Guess I'll have to reach out to one.

When your posts are deleted they will permanently affect your slots. Had some images I removed to upload better versions of at a later time and they do in fact work to decreasing your upload limit.

I do that all the time when I missed some flaw or detail and notice only after uploading. That's why my limit will never go up. I would still invest the time and effort to improve some bad eyes or fix missing tails in my early posts, if there wasn't this terrible system in place.

First thing I did when starting to post here was to point out how unsuitable the e621 mechanics are for this site, but nobody cares, of course: https://e6ai.net/forum_topics/58

I start be annoyed by noticing that the approver is usually the same from months, and pictures that get lot of ups and fave, still wait to be aproved. It smells like that is approved only the thing that that one approver likes. And that is not fair.
It can be that a good and perfectedly fine picture maybe with many likes, can be deleted just because no one of the approvers look at it.

That is very stupid

What needs to be understood, is that the main purpose of e6ai is to be a buffer for e621 so that AI slop doesn't get there (or at least limit the ammount of it).
That's why nobody cares about developing it, it only really has to stay online to serve that function.

As for the same approver - yeah Lance is carrying the brunt of approving all the slop that doesn't cross any rules (though it's still beyond me why all the identical low effort slop of ulfur is getting approved - guess approving in thumbnail mode doesn't show the lack of effort of the slop) . Shadowstones and Draco18s usually approve whatever was left behind. Approval waves happen every 2-3 days, which might be on purpose because, what's the point of constantly shoveling in all the slop if nobody would even lok at it? Just let is stay in pending state for a few days to let it marinate in the upvotes/favs so that people actually see the images.

What's also important, is that e6ai is stricter in regards to young and realistic feral content (compared to e621). It's more likely that your posts in those topics will not get approved (from what i see, you have several Ralsei pics unaproved - isn't he like 13 canonically?). From what i heard, the reason for this, is that law regarding AI can change anytime, and e6ai (as a AI site) doesn't want to deal with lawsuits regarding collection of 'illegal' material that can be used to train 'illegal AI models'. If you ever want to upload questionably underage characters then make them look less "childlike" i guess.

On the other hand, if you're sure that your uploads are not in "problematic" territory - just sent Draco18s (Acro,Dr.) a PM on Discord, and he will approve selected posts for you quite quickly (late EU/early US hours).

As for trying to replace your posts when you spot mistakes - Just make sure to thoroughly check the image for any significant errors. Even i can miss some error in my uploads sometimes, but it's honestly just skill issue.

For the ralsei ones, i try to make it cute but not too young. Canonically his age never revealed, but he is a prince of his own realm, his is more than a young man than a children. Different thing is asriel not in godmode. So ralsei can have the appareance of a 19-20. In the game there are many "dating like" moments, so is more than a children, as the game developers dont want do that kind of things wiyh underaged characters. So in any case, ralsei never is under the age of 16, so at least is a teenager, but never under that, as romance is more than intended.

And anyway there are already lot of Ralsei Naked/explict pictures, i just try to make it more accurare about his fluffynes.

I can't just send a message here someway, instead of searching him on discord?

User profile -> send message
at the very top.

You can send it here as rantas said, but Draco is simply more active on Discord (everyone has it running in the background nowadays).
https://discord.gg/furrydiffusion
Either DM him directly or ask in the "e6ai-discussion" channel

Hey man, you posted an image i generated and tagged me as arahderg, i went on and fixed it. Name's just Arah.

It’s seems only one people approves images last time. I think is too hard to do that work alone with hundreds of new images especially if you see approver favorites, he likes cute females but he checks a content that is too different from cute females, making that process less fun. I think that should be more approvers with different tastes, so someone specialize on cute females because he has more raised feeling on that content, another one specializes on manly content because he likes feeling strong man power rather than cute females and etc. It’s should be less work and more enjoyment for approvers.
