What dictates bad quality

So, I attempted my first upload on this website. it's your typical Bleachededit, raceplay and such. I uploaded on other platforms like twitter and rule34 and it was received well, however for some reason here I can't upload my edits due to unapproving mods. Now I don't mean to sound arrogant, nor do I want to sound rude since there are a lot of amazing edits on this site. However it just doesn't make sense that my edits are being rejected for posting meanwhile there are posts iv'e seen on this site that are the equivalent to slop. Like I said, I'm not trying to be rude, but everywhere else I've posted, its received really well.

I feel this, I upload basically niche content in terms of artstyle (basically since its homestuck lmao) and after gettinglike 4 post deleted i decide to ask in a forum post and basically got this from an admin:

"Not liked = Skip on our side. That's just how the coding is. Skipping something queue means a mod just did not care about it for any reason under the sun. There is no way to input a reason why we skipped, we just skip. An item sitting in queue is basically unlisted from the booru. Contributors (purple names) can see them though and so can anyone with a direct link. Hence why it has favorites on it."

"Whenever a post is uploaded mods are told to compare it to other works that have been recently. So for an edit, my area of expertise, I'll compare it to the edits I've seen around on the booru. I look at objective things that every editor needs to understand. Warping, blending, tat placement, and the art they chose. If the tats are aliased, badly warped, or even blended I, along with many others on the mod team, consider that low quality.

The art you choose to edit also plays a big factor in your chances. The booru doesn't need to be filled with MSpaint tier drawings, even if the editor did a good job. Now obviously as the curve narrows there is some personal bias that comes into play. A mod may simply just not like the piece or feel it toes the line too much. In a situation like that they either tend to skip it or share it within mod chat to let someone else look over it. When something less personalized comes through the queue, reuploading an artist's work for instance, we have to go by what the original piece is.

I'll use you as an example. Looking at your non approved uploads you have 6 different videos of Super Deep Throat gameplay. There is nothing unique about it, no storyline associated with it, or Bleached focused additions. It's just unmodified SDT gameplay. So it was considered low effort which easily falls under poor quality. The next two items were of a standard doggy style sex scene. Though it was skipped over by everyone probably because the guy in the gif had a poorly drawn dick. Finally you had a generic AI piece. To be honest I would consider that to fall under our "Plain AI" rule which depending on your interpretation doesn't allow unmodified AI pieces. Though, I do know some mods view it more as a "no badly done AI" rule.

Going by OPs work. The first one was just a tragic case of the only mod getting a chance to see it in 3 days skipped it. Second piece though the art itself was just not very good. I understand Homestuck is supposed to be reliant on it's absurdist art style but there are much better pieces. As evident by what they have uploaded.

Though let's be fair and look at the last two deleted entries (that just isn't people trolling). First we have (post #91649) this piece which was deleted because it's a sample image. The mod team prefers the original because then it's not a compressed version of what already exists. Second one is (post #91585). We have a anime girl, yes in a SS outfit, staring ahead and nothing else. This violates our plain pinup rule."

So yeah, modding here is a bit "biased" since if it isnt liked by the mod it wont be validated which kinda sucks ig. hope you get your posts back up tho

The tattoos in your upload are abnormally bright. What blending mode do you have your layers set too?
