This is true, if theres one thing I will give to them is their grandfathering of the rules. Something I already praised them for, especially because some do calls for a total purge.


 
Despite my many posts, and while I like Aryanne, I also think like you that this ban would be extremely minimal and, if the spotlight wasn't brought to it, would only affect a tiny fraction of pictures in the future. (The streisand effect is bound to affect it though, and it is also starting to create troll/taunting pictures like "[this":](/images/2385187) .)


 
The reason I personally debate and protest this is because after this (and the lack of responsability/community discussion by the administration regarding this) I do NOT have any trust at all in the administration for the future. I also believe this is the case for a lot of the artists currently issuing DNPs. Wether the slippery slope is real or not, there is absolutely nothing to guarantee us that a random trash article in the future won't be used to add more rules to that list, considering that again, they said 3 weeks ago that nothing would be done.


 
I would love to see the thought process for this decision or any clear message about it. So far everything that happened this month on this side has been handled with the PR level of a potato and it is sad to see.
Reason: formatting and stuff.
