Paid Reward Ban Request Thread

Posted under General

Hello everyone.
It's not entirely clear to me what does and doesn't classify as a "paid reward", and have a few questions.

For example: post #11568157 (NSFW) - a CG rip from a VN - was uploaded from e-hentai.
The gallery there was taken down and now resides in exhentai, for obvious piracy reasons.

Is this allowed on Danbooru nonetheless?
There are loads of VN CGs on here after all, how is that different from uploading a paid reward from Fanbox or Patreon?
Where exactly does Danbooru draw the line?

I found the same full asset rip gallery still publicly available on hitomi(.la) as well, so can anyone who sees it there and might not be aware of the takedown from e-hentai upload the entire gallery to here still?
If that is allowed, since hitomi is pretty much exclusively pirated content, how would an approver differentiate between something like a VN CG and a Fanbox reupload?

Personal note: I'm not anti-piracy and would be uploading Fanbox posts if allowed, I just don't want to collect denied uploads and warnings, so I want to properly understand site policy on this matter.

Thanks.
