about being featured then banned and then getting my account back again~

I think the title say all, right?

 

I got featured on Saturday/Sunday and with my first feature, it was the comic that really frustrated me when I was drawing it. Pensieri e Parole – Thoughts and Words, I had a lot of inspiration when I first started out on it, and it disappeared half way through, but I eventually completed it just last week.

 

When it was finally completed, I received so much love from you guys that I felt so happy. I didn’t want to leave it uncompleted, and I even forced myself to get it over and done with at the end. I hated myself for doing that, but it’s still my baby, my hard work; and I’m proud of it despite it lacking.

But after a day, what happened…?

 

Someone reported me.

 

I really don't want to blame anyone since I knew this could happen from the beginning when I started posting rated pics. But what could I do? I had no other alternative; no other option to my rated comics legally on AFF.

 

All of you know that I’m sorta unique here. I don’t want to say I’m special, but I really don’t think anyone had ever posted a comic on AFF, so even the staff didn’t know how to handle my situation and I didn’t know how to deal with the rules and policies stated on the site.

 

Anyways after my comics were reported, I was banned from the site. It wasn’t possible for me to communicate or contact anyone.

 

Within a day, I rise from Heaven and dropped back into hell.

 

I was shocked and was kinda in a mess, but thanks everyone one of you, crime-tsumi and Donghaeyah especially, for helping me to gain back my composure and getting me standing again during that period of time. I really felt like I fell for real for the second time in a year, but I got back up eventually.

 

I got back my account, my hard work, my comics, my readers, and most importantly my friends. I received so much love and concern, it’s only right me for me to call you all that.

 

Thanks for standing by me, to complaint to AFF to get my account back, and giving me hope!

 

I love you all!

 

A big hug to Min and gnagna_onni, who helped me doing by their ways<3<3<3

 

However, despite getting my account back, some things have been changed!

 

I can't post rated stuff here anymore, so my comics now are kind of censored(?)

 

Instead of viewing the rated pages from AFF itself, a link will be provided for those pages which include or . The link will be to my LJ ( http://myfreesinging.livejournal.com/), which is friend-locked. This would mean that you have to add me as a friend, and I will have to add you back, before you can really see those pages. I'll try as much as possible to add direct links of the images so you don't need to add me on LJ.

 

I hope that even if I am censored, you all will still stay with me!

 

I will try to finish the PDF of Pensieri e Parole – Thoughts and Words soon, and will share in the comic, so you all can read it with the and the censored pages. I will finish up Conversations too , if Tinay wants ahahah ( <3)

 

After that, I will probably take a small break during June. I'll be leaving for Korea on the 11th of june and will return to Italy on the 24th. This is a holiday, I really need to get inspiration, to think about my future, to cheer up and leave all my nightmares behind.

 

I could still try to update the first chapter of the new comic, but i don't think so I would...  I still some work to do, and a lot to prepare before leaving.

 

Anyways, I'll not go anywhere. I will still stick with AFF.  I really hope for all to  keep on support my stuff even if i am (half) censured!

 

Thanks again <3

Omg , how could someone do that *.* , it's your opinion to post what ever you want and you made it obviously rated , so they don't have to be bossy around and just reported you :/ :/
You are definitely unique not only here , but your way in your comics is so unique
Never care about them , just continue what you are doing here or in any other sites ;)
