Hello,

I’ve been trying to log into my main account on Lemmy.world (same username) and eventually through enough Googles discovered the account has been banned for CSAM. I’ve just been posting popular content from Reddit and Danbooru to the Lemmy.nsfw federation. I wasn’t aware what CSAM even meant before today or that those sites allowed that. I’m just trying to add (supposedly popular) content to the community, not break rules because some artist made a piece that crossed the line. I can switch to this lemmy.nsfw profile if you wish it of course, but I don’t want future posts to be getting the community defederated either. With anime characters the artists always are pulling the whole “Oh yeah they’re over 18” card and those communities I’m reposting from clearly buy it. What standards are you looking for to define CSAM? I’ll be sure to avoid reposting that content on lemmyNSFW in the future. If petite gals are too much of a risk, users can find them elsewhere. Sorry to have grabbed undue attention.

Edit: I’ll just err on the side of caution and ensure future posts favor those on the curvier side of the spectrum unless clearer standards for guessing anime women ages are established. Should any of you have additional advice or want a specific future post removed please let me know. I want this place to replace Reddit. Not become a CP den

      How are they this out of touch? Either they think they’ll get sympathy for being banned or they don’t think they’ve done anything wrong.

      What the hell?

        I’m literally just reposting crap and I was hoping to get the account unbanned if possible. I wanted to ask the mods of lemmy.world what I should do so it wouldn’t happen again. I was trying to grow the site not play “Guess the anime characters” age. I figured the moderation on those sites was adequate. I was clearly incorrect. I’d personally prefer not to post at all but the communities are still small

      Exactly! I don’t even wanna have to make judgement calls on this stuff. I just came over with the Reddit Exodus and wanted to help grow the community by easy reposts. I literally just grab crap from the “hot/popular” pages, throw on a title and post. On Reddit I didn’t even have to post and deal with making age calls on fictional people. It sucks
