Update on Pixiv Account Status 😢
(This is a reupload of the post since I forgot to give access to everyone, oops)
So I did want to inform the community that my Pixiv account is unfortunately suspended at the moment. From what I read about the specific violation, it seems that providing Twitter or Iwara video links in the posts violated the terms of use since the videos were uncensored forms of content. Not sure why it's happening now since I've been doing it for many years, though I'm assuming the guidelines changed recently and I didn't read up on it. Anyways, I pretty much deleted all Twitter and Iwara associated links on my Pixiv account and I'm hoping they lift the suspension on my account. I am also concerned that the main issue could also be linking the Patreon content, if that is the case, I will most likely not be able to use Pixiv as a place to post my content and will just focus on posting it on Twitter and Iwara. I am a bit saddened since Pixiv was where I first started out on, but I fortunately have other platforms that I can continue on. I am just confused since I've mainly just copied what other Pixiv creators have done and assumed it did not violate the terms of use, I've seen so many other fellow creators linking their Twitter or Patreon so I assumed I would be able to do the same. 😢
I do appreciate those that have stuck by my side and supported me in these past years and I'm hoping I'll still be able to strive and become a great Asstrologist on other platforms even if my Pixiv account remains suspended, thank you all and I'll update you all on if the suspension ends up being lifted or not! 💜
Here is the specific violation if you guys are curious:

Damn man i'm sorry. A lot of pixiv is just about luck and seeing how long you can go until one of the mods catches you in violation of one of their many archaic rules. Hopefully you can clear it up though.
Hoping I am able to as well. I got rid of all and any external links on all my posts so I'm hoping they will unsuspend the account. If they don't respond and it ends up remaining suspended, I'll most likely transition to focusing on Twitter and Iwara being my main platforms. Very sad though since Pixiv was a big target audience for scene data... 😢
Sucks but yea thats how Pivix can be. Not sure how links work, some people post them but might depend on the content. Some Scene creator don't, maybe a way around. Still understandable, do what you gotta do.
Wow that sucks turbo ass, really hope your account gets reinstated.
That's Unfortunate. Pixiv recently got stricter with their rules this year. I got suspeneded for mentioning twitter + uncensored content in a post (I didnt even have a twitter at that time), but after removing that it was fine.
I see, I removed all links to Patreon, Iwara, and Twitter on all my posts so hopefully they review my account again and unsuspend it. 😢
That's just pixiv... Had to censor the penis and vaginal parts (on my posts) to get my pixiv account restored.. weirdly enough had to remove links to my twt before re-adding them back in
I had dealt with censorship problems in the past on Pixiv so all my posts are always censored. For now, I did remove all links to Patreon, Iwara, and Twitter on every post so hopefully it will get unsuspended. 😢
