Description
For those that do not know. Curia-DD is one of the artists here at Deviant Art is a victim of Cyberbullying. curia-dd.deviantart.com/ (The majority of the month of January 2018)CYBERBULLYING IS ALIVE AND STRONG IN DEVIANTART AND SUPPORTED BY THE MODERATORS AND OWNERS.
DeviantArt was aware of the situation. Denise was harassed repeatedly while Moderators and Owners of DA did nothing to stop or curb the problems and now they side with the bully and his gang of thug puritans.
Who now by the way still abuse the REPORT button to attack other artists without care or concern if the said images are or are not within standards of the Term of Service. (I've given my solution and suggestion to fix this problem.. go to the bottom of this section for a repeat.)
Denise in the mean time has been banded from DA for 30 days because of this harassment and the Puritans push to have her removed from DA. Meanwhile the owners of DA enjoy the fruits of a paid membership and benefits of Denise's (Curia-DD's) DEVIANT ART and the people it once drew in.
Question: What does Deviant Art stand for. Deviant in the name itself means : departing from usual or accepted standards, especially in social or sexual behavior. (Quoted right from Google folks)
Question: What is the purpose of the Mature button is the Purtins are going to push their social and political views on DA's moderators and owners if the Mature button is going to be ignored.
Question: I'm a retired member of the U.S. Navy Jag Corp. I know bad law when I see it. DeviantArt's TOS is garbage. Not even the moderators are able to agree from one person to the next on what each line item stands for. Rewrite it and get it up to date...I wouldn't ask three 14 year olds to explain them...they'd each have a different answer.
My solution....
ALLOW THE ACCUSED TO FACE THEIR ACCUSER!
NO MORE HIDING!
IF AN IMAGE IS REPORTED THE NAME OF THE REPORTEE IS POSTED TO THE ACCUSED
hang on...only if the reporting is shown to be false.
Reason being I think if someone over steps the rule, and uses the REPORT button as an attack
they should be forced to come forward or DA bans them for a week. I'm hard core like that.
I leave a notes. It's get's people talking again.
And it's the polite thing to do.

I agree!!! Sadly this is still going on! I just had a story deleted after having been posted more than 18 months ago! No answer from the Admins except it did not meet TOS!
Setting was "Strict Mature"!!! Denise has also had a few more deleted, after she went through all her deleted stories and attempted to "fix" them!

i love your picture, and i agree with everything you've said about DA. what pisses me off the most is when DA takes, any material that curia-dd had posted for longer than 3+ years, and now they decide its against the rules? i love it here, i'm just fed up with these jerks.

The only way to win against them is simple. Buy them out and make the Powers that be unemployed.

I had my account removed due to someone elses violations over eight years ago...DA is changing, just not at a very forgiving speed or are using common sense. (I still think their new DA icon is a piece of shit over their last one.)

It makes me of the temple from the last season of Lost. (Though hopefully happier things are taking place there).

I agree, the right to confront your accusers is a US Constitutional Right. By extension, so is the right to call them out for being bullies. I've started a favorites section titled WeLoveCuria, but that's my initial response. I'm working on brainstorming ideas to use my creative writing to express my outrage, that's where my art strengths are.

Your words and looking at Curia 's face in your image raises tears in my eyes. This smile reaches my heart directly.
btw. for the case that you didn't noticed it: The try from a friend to get an answer from dA-support about this case:
Rate The Results of SupportHow would you rate the support you received?
Good, I'm satisfied
Bad, I'm unsatisfied
I chose "Bad, I'm unsatisfied" and was redirected to: https://support.deviantart.com/requests/933230/satisfaction/new/GPWYSLeIxtDW2omOEOkjHrS0b?locale=1&intention=4#/satisfaction
where I commented:
Curia-dd was "reported" by some anonymous troll. She was working to correct any TOS violations when DA abruptly suspended her account. I find it difficult to belied that a "trained member of the DA team" would act so precipitously to such a long time Core member.
Here's a reminder of what your ticket was about:

I have to say out of all the tributes to Curia this one is my absolute favorite.
The Bright side is that after a month she can come back .. (which is getting pretty close now isn't it?)
but I agree with you. Deviantart does need to do something about the false flaggers and also be on the same page as other mods. I hate the fact that 1 mod will be fine with something hardcore sex and another mod will say "nope against the rules". No one on the staff is on the same page.. and it's seriously irritating.
Great work . I'd like to see more images like this..

Thank you. I never interacted with Curia, but Shadowhawkone gave me the full story as he's talking with her off line from DA and got the full scoop.
DA seriously put their foot in their mouth with this. They made a mistake and need to step up and make sure it doesn't happen.
Cyberbullying is, as I said alive and well and DA is doing little to stop it. The weapon of choice is the REPORT button.
False reporting is like that old story of the kid who cried wolf, only DA still believes the kid.

Yes, it is sad. I'm in the discord with her too, so have heard it all. It really is very very sad. People who just can't leave others to their own devices, but have to stick their noses in. Internet Warriors. Ugh.

Thank you, and thank you for filling me in on the B.S. injustice. Not much bugs me, but violence to women (DA allows images of hanging, decapitation, and cannibalism), slavery (DA allows wiping of women images with blood splatters in the context of women as nothing more than ISIS trinkets to be traded.), Rape (it's all over the place), and Cyberbullies.
But apparently consensual sex is the worst sin on DA.
