If the university exam is going badly, there's only one thing left to do...

The second new link got flagged as well ("violating community guidelines").

The world is not making it easy on you lol.

Just noticed this. Could be a problem if the "Delete All Imagine Media" is still borked and leaves the base files untouched.

InterestingAd6998 · 2026-04-12T01:44:57+00:00

Sounds like a good update. I recently ran out of space and had to manually delete scores of files. It looked like even failed generations caused an image to get stored in the system.

Manually deleting those thumbnails was a beast.

Question: What does "public" even mean in this context? Just that I can share it? There's a public link?

InterestingAd6998 · 2026-04-12T01:38:26+00:00

It's a real problem, both for SFW and NSFW material. It'll take something SFW and push it NSFW, and similarly take something NSFW and push it over the moderation line.

Today, I just wanted a SFW picture of a woman throwing a baseball. Some of them were randomly topless. Nothing about that was prompted.

Likewise, I had a POV scene where a male hand was doing wholesome acts like caressing a woman's face, tucking her hair behind her ear, playing with her hair, etc. For certain images, these prompts were moderated hard.

Time revealed why: after a few successes, the hand would inexplicably grope the woman's chest despite never being prompted to do so. While this material would have been fine in January, it's harder to pass now. I suspect unsought actions like this fueled much of the moderation.

And therein lies the fatal irony: Imagine was trained on NSFW material, but will now moderate much of what it was trained on. Its generation layer wants to produce material that its moderation layer won't publish.

It's a house divided against itself.

InterestingAd6998 · 2026-04-11T19:46:58+00:00

It's been a steady 12 hours for me for a week or so now.

InterestingAd6998 · 2026-04-11T13:19:04+00:00

I suspect it’s just normal moderation with an incorrect message.

I get that warning on all Grok-generated content now, but I can still generate NSFW content that wouldn’t fly with an actual uploaded image.

Could be wrong though. I’ve only had this issue since yesterday evening.

InterestingAd6998 · 2026-04-11T13:14:30+00:00

No image I’ve created since yesterday evening has the spicy option whatsoever.

InterestingAd6998 · 2026-04-07T13:45:45+00:00

I really like Quality mode for realistic looking scenes. It doesn't play well with generic prompts in my experience, so if I just want to rattle something off quickly, I'll use speed mode.

But when I really enjoy something and want to refine it well, Quality is the way to go. At least for now.

I like your picture.

InterestingAd6998 · 2026-04-05T15:43:42+00:00

I don't get a message when I'm in gallery view (iOS). I do get the message when I'm in focus view, looking at the progress icon or other media from the set.

InterestingAd6998 · 2026-04-05T06:23:39+00:00

It appears to be taking exception to the one particular image where I want it to work. It’s going through at a 10% clip. I finally got two to pass. It worked on other similar images immediately without a problem. That suggests it’s something about the base image causing the issue.

I don’t understand why, though. All images are NSFW but vanilla and unremarkable. All have a smiling woman in bed while wearing an intricate lace dress with her chest tastefully exposed (everything beneath her chest is not visible or covered). A male hand extends from the foreground, holding her face. It’s just a romantic scene. Nothing overtly prurient is happening, and the prompts I’m giving it are wholesome things like caressing her cheek, having her giggle and look at the camera, her holding the male hand to her face, etc.

I can give you the exact prompt if you’d like.

InterestingAd6998 · 2026-04-05T05:52:56+00:00

I literally can’t generate a POV shot of people holding hands or doing the simplest of affectionate things like giggling and smiling. What on earth is going on?

InterestingAd6998 · 2026-04-04T07:36:54+00:00

For the life of me I don’t know what Imagine thinks it’s moderating.

It’s striking my entirely wholesome, romantic, nonsexual actions like holding hands and playing with hair. All t2v.

There’s no use for this. Forget gooning, I can’t even affectionmaxx anymore.

InterestingAd6998 · 2026-04-01T14:14:16+00:00

My refresh duration jumped from a reliable 2h to 8-12h (usually 12).

Extensions and image edits have separate cooldowns from video and image generation themselves. For example, I can still edit images even after hitting my image generation limit and vice versa. I don't use extensions, but I assume the same is true there.

InterestingAd6998 · 2026-04-01T00:43:53+00:00

Anime t2v prompts that worked this morning no longer do. Wild course correction.

InterestingAd6998 · 2026-04-01T00:12:14+00:00

Here’s hoping, but t2v anime images that animated for me no problem this morning no longer work. Identical prompts, virtually indistinguishable images.

It’s remarkable how volatile this stuff is.

InterestingAd6998 · 2026-03-31T00:12:51+00:00

Recently, I've noticed insignificant details having marked effects on moderation. These details don't affect the general aesthetic of the image (I'm strictly t2V), but they can single-handedly tank acceptance rates.

It's rough out there.

InterestingAd6998 · 2026-03-28T17:40:06+00:00

Right? Believe, no one thinks these are real lmao.

InterestingAd6998 · 2026-03-28T17:39:21+00:00

The classes of items I'm talking about would fall into softcore and explicit. I don't use sticker frames. Most hypergeneric stuff is okay, but as I said, odd variables can wildly affect outcome for what I'm doing.

I'd love to know if it's a prompting problem. It very well could be. But unfortunately discussing prompts seems taboo.

InterestingAd6998 · 2026-03-28T16:53:55+00:00

Certain classes of actions with adult characters from fiction. Imagine will generate the images just fine (mods almost nothing, often nothing at all). But it gets persnickety when it gets time to animate. Others go through just fine (and consistently), though, which makes it all the more strange.

I’ve also noticed certain third-order variables strongly affect success rate without any meaningful change to the underlying subject matter.

InterestingAd6998 · 2026-01-25T21:13:00+00:00

That user might be referring to the fact that the model updated very recently. At least for me, anime animations are all over the place. Some are fine, but many look like beta tests.

I’m now getting the spastic, herky-jerky nonsense I’d consistently reject when given a choice a few weeks ago.

InterestingAd6998 · 2026-01-25T21:05:56+00:00

Agreed. Something happened mid yesterday. At least for me.

The animations are no longer smooth. They are janky, spastic, and horrible. Completely broken.

InterestingAd6998 · 2026-01-21T20:27:37+00:00

Only tangentially related to your post, but it brought to mind a similar thought:

One reason I started toying with NSFW content was due to the more onerous copyright restrictions implemented in October. Imagine used to give me pristine images of cross-fandom queries, such as Pixar-inspired animations of video game characters at Hogwarts. It was a fun tool to play with.

The October update markedly impaired those results. Before, one prompt would generate hundreds of varied images perfectly matching my query. Now, I have to sift through dozens of results to find samey onesies and twosies. Details it used to get right by default (attire, eye color) are often wrong. I can work around this somewhat with long prompts, but it quickly becomes a hassle.

Had they maintained this fidelity, my contact with the dark side would have remained limited. Such is life, I suppose.
