TL;DR: I'm banning all AI art from the sub. It is gone and no longer allowed. You can use this thread to discuss the AI art issue here and only here. I will delete any post about elsewhere on the sub.

In the last couple of days I have been inundated with messages about reports and user harassment. All related to AI art. Look, I get that people are really passionate about AI art- whether that passion is for or against it is up to the individual, but the level of toxicity has made me feel like Rule 3 of this subreddit should become sentient and just start banning people of its own accord.

I have said in the past I really just don't care about the AI art thing. We are a furry porn subreddit, we post stuff that we find sexually gratifying. This is not the place for the "AI Art War," and I was hoping the very simple "downvote and move on" rule of thumb would work for those that were anti-AI.

Boy was I wrong. The level of harassment I'm getting messages about on both sides is honestly embarrassing. I have been a part of this sub since its earliest days and I have never seen so much toxicity.

So I am bringing the hammer down and banning all AI art.

Some of you are cheering right now, some of you are booing. I don't care, I just want a return to normalcy where I'm not receiving dozens of messages about rampant harassment over the creation method of a piece of porn. I have removed the AI art that has popped up over the last few days. I have updated the sidebar rules to include the ban.

If you want to discuss AI art on this server, use this post. If I see posts on the issue outside this one, I will delete them. If I see people attacking each other over this ban, you will be banned. Rule 3 is still in effect. Be fucking civil about this please.

Now stop arguing over what made the shark tits and get back to salivating over them you filthy animals!
