So, we'll be making more distinctions between the Mature Filter that any creator can utilize and the Mature Section, which will have its own set of content policy guidelines.
The Mature section for the foreseeable future will be reserved for premium stories only, but we will have a submission process set up for any creator to apply. This isn't going to be reserved for already existing premium story creators only.
Hm, the Mature section was in the conceptual phase before the app store fiasco, but the necessity for it became expedited due to that. As for utilizing the Mature section to feature stories that were made inaccessible by Apple, I would personally love to do that, but for now, the section will be used for premium stories only. The series made inaccessible by Apple are more than welcome to apply for the Mature section when submissions become available.
Sorry about that.
Hm, I guess I have some questions for you and for everyone else. I check the forums every morning and evening, but I am hesitant to jump into these topics too early. I kind of want to see what organic discussions take place before jumping in and trying to answer anything. Would you all prefer that I jump in sooner? This is off the assumption that I don't address the issues preemptively.
Potentially. We're focusing most of our efforts of erotica for the section currently. I... I personally don't really want to create a section that glamorizes violence as I feel there are a lot of platforms or avenues to explore those stories while there are less platforms or avenues to tell mature stories dealing with sex, sexuality, erotica, etc.
We currently have a pop up when trying to access any banned stories that prompt readers to navigate to the mobile web version. Does that answer the question? I wasn't sure.
