The last five years I have tried to make a nice blog with all kinds of things that I like to see, and that was mostly paintings, graphic art and drawings. It has resulted in more than 20,000 followers.

All posts are things that everyone can see, from young to old without shame, even the drawings and paintings of nudes were no different than those that you find in the great museums of the world.

Unfortunately, since December 17, Tumblr has changed the rules, causing a large amount of suddenly ‘so-called’ adult content ’.

However, they have changed game rules, but they do not know how to maintain them. The result is that all kinds of things from my Tumblr and from others are tagged as 'adult content’, you can see above 'why’ !!! 

And this is only a very, very small part of what has been wrongly censored.

ADULT CONTENT ? there is nothing indecent or immoral about an academic study of a male half nude ! but it is being Flagged as not being accepted by the community guidelines. ( who are they ? a computer ?)                                      http://hadrian6.tumblr.com

I don't know who or what they are, but it's ridiculous and they've taken away my fun in Tumblr.

It is sad that more than a year after the new rules, I still have to submit requests to review the images incorrectly labeled on my Tumblr.
