I think his account is frozen right now, he can't really access it now so we have to wait and seeWouldn't it be possible for him to turn substar into a subscription service and post his actual updates via a members-only channel
Incognitymous said:I am first announcing that I will be taking the week off from drawing to take care of important matters. Earlier this morning the worst has come to pass and I have received a notice from SubscribeStar that my current content is no longer allowed on the platform. SubscribeStar now no longer allows bestiality, rape or incest, among other things. I'm unsure on other specifics though and am awaiting a response for more clarification as to how some of their prohibited content rules apply, therefore I will not be commenting on that further at this time.
Certain features of my account are now locked, which includes my ability to post content, which is pretty standard for such a situation. I will have to remove all of my posts before I can regain full functionality. Once removed I will be moving the latest pages and illustrations to my website, since I can't keep them available to subscribers anyway.
Since SubscribeStar does not have any tools for bulk deletion, they will have to be removed one by one before I can regain full use of my account. This process will clearly take a while. It seems I can still currently make text-only posts, so I will try and post this announcement there as well, but I am receiving messages from users about inconsistent access to my page so I am unsure how well that will work.
This comes right after I also just lost my Patreon page, so technically I have no income and need to come up with what I will do to resolve this problem. SubscribeStar really seemed like the final remaining option to fund my content, so I really have to contemplate what I can do now. I will be maintaining communication with SubscribeStar to figure out my options with them moving forward, but I don't communicate with them regularly, so I have no idea at what rate they will respond to my messages.
The reason I'm taking the week off is I've been pushing myself too hard to keep up on updates with everything else going on. First I lost Disqus on my website, then as I was trying to resolve that I lost access to my .com domain which I had to replace with a .moe domain, then I lost my Patreon page, and now my SubscribeStar is locked. I've been trying to maintain my normal upload schedule while resolving all of these issues and it's just become too much. I need to be able to focus entirely on these problems so I can address them properly.
Incognitymous said:I have received a response back from SubscribeStar, and it appears that underage characters are in fact covered under the newer content policies, so I have removed all of my content from the platform and will not be able to republish any of it there. I believe I should have account functionality back, but if anyone still has trouble accessing or subscribing to my page, who was not having any issues prior to this change, then please let me know so I can contact SubscribeStar about it.
I will not be canceling Sultry Summer nor Chain Reaction, but this does mean that anything related to these comics will be posted only on my website. Because I also lost my Patreon, if my income continues to drop it is possible that I will have to slow down production of my main comics to do something else alongside them that is more sustainable, but I don't know at this time what that would be.
"SubscribeStar now no longer allows bestiality, rape or incest, among other things."SubscribeStar is banning Incest.
What SubscribeStar doesn't seem to realize is that the only reason people used their platform instead of Patreon is because they were allowing exactly what Patreon banned people for, so, with this move they are only going kill their own company.It was only a matter of time until SubscriberStar fall like the rest.

incognitymous said:SubscribeStar finally unlocked my account for real. This was supposed to have been done sooner, but there was seemingly a technical issue at play that has finally been resolved.
As such I just uploaded a Kim Possible illustration with Kim, Ron and Shego to SubscribeStar. It's actually something I did over the weekend while I was experimenting with stylization after reading modern updated platform policies, I just didn't have a legitimate means to upload it until my account was fixed.
I hope his work in the future doesn't get worst since he had to change it drastically by recent TOS. Having to deal with BS policy changes can mess up the flow of many artists. Leaving them paranoid or treating their art as an afterthought than passion. People probably notice this already by now.incognitymous said:Since I can no longer upload them to SubscribeStar, I just uploaded the sketch for page 167 of Chain Reaction to my website. While uploading these to my website I will just upload the sketch and then the colors.
I think yes. He also made the first page pf a new work based on gravity falls.Is there only one page of Chain Reaction this week?
Jack has definitely been the star of this Chapter so far, I am really enjoying it.Jack being assertive is... doing something![]()
