Quitting Janitor AI
Stepping away from Janitor.
Short version: I can't upload images anymore. Everything I use is AI-generated — no real people, nothing explicit, nothing that breaks a single line of the published Image Guidelines. They get rejected anyway, for being photorealistic. That rule isn't in the guidelines. It's just what the filter decided.
Moderation should be enforcing the rules a platform actually wrote down. When the rulebook says one thing and the filter says another, creators are the ones left guessing.
The suggested fix is to convert everything to illustration or anime. I'm not doing that. My characters are grounded and contemporary, and photoreal is doing real work in how they land. Stylised art wouldn't be a compromise, it would be a different character.
So, no new cards from me. If they fix it, I'll be back. I don't expect they will.
Everything else about this place has been great. The care people put into a persona, a scenario, a single opening message — for free, for strangers — is rare on the internet. Thanks to everyone who read my bots, commented, followed. You made a hobby feel like it mattered.
I lead a busy life out here. This was a good escape from the chaos for a while.
Cheers. Good times. Peace out.
