I don't think an outright purge is warranted. There are some pretty decent works of his here.

If you guys think that some of the stuff falls under the grotesque rule you're fully entitled to delete it, we did decide that posts don't get exempt from the rules for any reason. I just don't think that deleting everything is necessary. But that's just me.

Those all look terrible to me.

His work has been here for 2 years. And now you guys have a problem with it?
I hadn't really noticed it before. He has barely 30 posts, 0.0094% of the posts on danbooru.

guys, i heard randou is actually white... we need to delete all his stuff posthaste
The point is not that he's white (is he?), the point is that his art is for the most part bad, at least IMO, and most of his posts are not anime-related or in an anime-style, which is stipulated in the TOS, I believe.

I think his style's close enough. He does do quite a few videogame/anime characters. His stuff has been up here for a long time. A full purge would be overkill. As you had said, he doesn't even have that many posts; It's at ~30 right now. In other words, it's not like his work is taking up some huge amount of diskspace or interfering with your danbooru experience.
Some of the people posting in here seem to be for deleting his work just because they don't like it. In general, I'm very anti-deletionism. No one is going to like all the posts on danbooru. There are going to be plenty you don't like that other people do like. If someone really doesn't like dmitry's work, they can just add him to their blacklist.

Also opposing a mass deletion. Most of his stuff went through the mod queue and was approved by at least one mod. It seems pretty iffy to go back and reverse those decisions without good reason. I thought that in general mods were supposed to respect each other's differences in opinion.

Some users don't have to go through the mod queue. However, the "going back and changing things" does somewhat apply since dmitry's pictures have been up for a long time.
