5 uploads, 4 deleted with the incredibly vague and unhelpful 'does not meet minimum standards'.

This last one, I even put in effort to remove artifacts and even writing that should not exist on it; Still deleted, and I have no idea what needs fixing.

So IB and e6 both basically have this rule of "We allow AI art. But ONLY IF you meet some vague standard of quality that you have no way of knowing & failure to do so will result in removal. Have fun!"
Hell, in IB's case, I even got a warning for 'Content Policy Violation', even though every piece they deleted was clearly marked as AI in the keywords AND descriptions!

So yeah. It's too stressful and frustrating to see character pieces deleted for not following some vague, unstated standard. And even be given account warnings on IB ,when I did my best to clean up the art or post it was AI.
No wonder there's so little art here; It's an exclusive club where people like me: Newbies to AI art & art programs like Adobe, can't meet standards & are not told what was wrong upon deletion, so there's no way to improve or fix it.

Only experts need apply, apparently.

So yeah; No more submissions from me. I'm tired with being proud of a piece that then gets removed, and I don't want to tick off any mods by repeatedly failing to meet this vague standard of quality I have no idea how to meet.

Edit:I will add that 'Does not meet minimum quality standards' is vague to me because there's no feedback to that statement.
There's no room to improve. No idea what was wrong. No way to fix the image because clearly I do not see whatever the mod/janitor saw.
So a person may as well trash the deleted images, because there's no feedback on what to fix.

We have explained issues to you, and sent link to our picture guidelines.

But you can always post on our Discord, where user engagement is sometimes even better than here. There are even more images on our discord than on e6AI server, there’s nothing not to like about it! The Discord mods have turned it into the second biggest NSFW furry Discord server out there, and you're really missing out by not being there!

You have explained issues, yes. But it feels...I don't know how to put it...Like a waste of people's time to ask explicitly why x or y image was deleted, every time.
Simply because 'Does not meet minimum standards' is vague.

It also feels like an uploader can be trying to better themselves and be fearful of being hit with a grey or red note for too many bad uploads.

I'm not disagreeing with the janitor/mod who deleted them. Nor am I attacking them. They are just doing their duty as per the rules of the website.
It's the reason itself, 'Does not meet minimum standards', which is too vague.
How is a person supposed to know what to fix? Where to improve? What to look for? All to stop wasting mod's time with another bad upload.

I'll use myself as an example; I joined the discord. I asked what was wrong with the image.
I fixed everything I could. But I'm worried it STILL won't pass muster. That it will STILL have some flaw I missed, or some error outside my skills to fix, and then a mod will have to take time to delete it again.
And it will be my fifth upload. At what point am I wasting everyone's time and risking Notes?
