You know the drill.

It looks perfectly good to me.
We REALLY need more approvers or something, because so much good stuff gets ignored. Once the thing has been pending for at least 24 hours, chances are, no approver is ever going to see it.
And this thread usually gets ignored too, mostly.

It won't matter in the end. It's like adding more lanes to a freeway but there's still traffic. Adding more approvers won't change the way stuff gets approved, the new ones will just do the same thing the current ones are doing. Good stuff will continue getting deleted, it's all vibes based and dependent on their taste and what they feel like approving at the time. That's just the way this site fundamentally works. It's sad, really.

someone please approve these

In that case, I will ask for the following to be re-reviewed, as they were deleted:

post #9955796
post #9955738
post #9919764
post #9919724
post #9919676 (already approved, thanks NiceLittleDan)
post #9919671
post #9919662 (already approved, thanks Shibi)
post #9919642 (already approved, thanks NiceLittleDan)

And pre-emptively ask for approvals for these pending ones, since they are going to be deleted if nobody looks at them (which they won't, since they are all over a day old - how would an approver even notice them?)

Now, as much as I feel tempted to lash out against our beloved approvers for... ahem.... disagreements over what is worthy of being approved or not, let's operate on a good-faith assumption: a lot of time, a given approver simply won't see what you uploaded. At all. That's just the nature of the site: too many uploaders, too few curators (approvers). Ironically, the low upload limits are intended to prevent this.... but it's still a problem.

If your upload won't get noticed fast, chances are, it's going down the drain. And from what I was told, privately messaging a given approver - I tried this once under the assumption that "that approver who keeps approving my stuff is my pal" - is rude and heavily discouraged.

Either way, complaining - which is what we are doing - won't get us far. If anything, chances are, they are going to ignore our uploads as a petty revenge.

can I ask why this was Unapproved?
post #9906952

my first upload for that X post was for some reason only a snapshot of the video despite me putting the same link in, probably something wrong with how danbooru fetches X posts but that one got approved but the actual live2d video isn't approved!?

I assume there are periods of time where the Approvers are quite busy or inactive, is my guess

A few more failed appeals for now.

post #9700330 - SFW; not seeing what's poor quality about it or what warranted someone's comment to check the othe rposts by the artist Thanks!

post #9808197 - Questionable; someone did point out "Based on boobs and ass her spine would be bent quite harshly.". I admit I'm not entirely sure wha thte pose is either, but I'm assuming from context that this is intentional. Regardless, I'm mainly including it here for completeness. Thanks!

Thanks!

We need more Approvers, methinks.
There are not enough Approvers to reasonable curate the sheer volume of stuff that gets uploaded in real-time on the site.
