Gelbooru is a Japanese-themed sitePosted on: 12/03/10 12:09PM
Since Gelbooru's creation it has been a Japanese-themed website. This fact has never changed. New written rules that further define this theme have been created, yes, but again: it further defines the theme. They are not arbitrary and are not an abuse of power.
So please, read the Terms of Service.
gelbooru.com/tos.php(Comment: this is to serve as a pre-written response to those accusations that we are "abusing our power" when we delete images for reasons such as "Not anime" or "Non-Japanese artist", etc. This also does not excuse actual mod abuse; if it should occur -- and please check the Terms of Service beforehand to make sure it just wasn't your misunderstanding -- please PM the admin Lozer.)
EDIT: The reason for the enforcement of the non-Japanese artists is because there were people claiming that "anime-style" makes it acceptable even when the art itself was vaguely "anime-style".
