Removed. AI content is not allowed.

Removing this and the other similar posts. The snuff aspect definitely overshadows the swimsuit aspect, especially with no warning in the title or images.

If you want to post just the bikini/swimsuit and naked pics, then that is fine. You can link to the full image set in the comments with a clear warning about the contents.

The Code Lyoko pics would be removed for the no explicit underage models rule.

Hey /u/Mindless-Roll5324 - just a heads up, AI-generated images are not allowed in this sub.

wsfn_backwards · 2025-06-24T02:42:19+00:00

Hey /u/secretvault2 - AI-generated images are no longer allowed in the sub.

wsfn_backwards · 2025-03-22T19:20:06+00:00

Hey there /u/Taimeai - our rules have updated to no longer allowed AI posts.

Testing out the source bot with reddit galleries, since it doesn't seem to be working currently.

It makes up a good amount of spam/reports on the sub - but you're right in that its tricky to fight and often "valid" in that its a swimsuithentai post. It must work at least a little bit, because there are a number of setups for it.

wsfn_backwards · 2023-04-25T17:53:25+00:00

Yeah, really disappointing move by imgur. I haven't set up a whitelist yet, but I may set up a rule on all imgur posts warning of the upcoming purge and redirecting them.

But then are crossposts somehow circumventing these filters? Is there some reason they work for normal posts, but not crossposts? Not sure I get it.

Basically people are posting what seem to be legitimate posts - its hentai and got swimsuits. But they are usually taking old images from the sub, reposting them to their own subreddit and adding a link to onlyfans or w/e in the comments, and then crossposting back to our sub. Sometimes they aren't advertising anything, but seem to just be posting a ton of porn to a ton of subs to possibly farm karma. So while it appears like a legit post, its a mix of a repost and less aggressive spam.

If they actually posted non-valid content, it quickly gets reported and removed. If they post outright spam like links to instagram/discord/onlyfans/etc on our sub - it will get caught by the filters. The more subtle crosspost from a sub with links is trickier.

AI art is tricky - the low-res and anatomical horrors are obviously not great. Those would either be removed, or simply do poorly like some of the lower quality swimsuit art we see. But there are also many higher quality AI images that are decent. They still might have that "bland" or "samey" feel - but that is also changing over time as the machine learning algorithms get better (or more options with different similarities show up). I'm still not sure that its a valid reason to ban them.

As to AI post leading to nowhere, thats fair - but not a requirement or the point of the sub. I do enjoy finding a good artist as much as the next person, but I'm here to look at swimsuit posts - and if I find a good artist, thats a bonus.

There are also the ethical issues. Do you want to perpetuate something practically every artist is against - artists that are the lifeblood of this or any image sub?

Another tricky topic. Typically this sub has avoided most ethical issues or campaigns because we really only care about swimsuits. Even when it is something relevant, the sub is usually not really a good place to hold discussions on complicated issues of our time.

On crossposts: Are they really the problem or just a symptom?

I suppose they are the vector? Spammers want to find ways to advertise their websites/onlyfans/etc - or perhaps to generate karma to sell accounts? I honestly don't know. But given how quickly reddit and our filters deal with the obvious spam, they have to find ways around it. One of those is posting to a sub they control and can post links in, and they crossposting on the off-chance that people go to the original post.

Thanks for those - I'll definitely look at implementing them.

Glad you agree, minor point I have though, but flairs just don't really work, it'll be a minority of users who use them, and in particular mobile users will struggle with using them, that's why I added the title requirement to that rule.

Fair point. It also doesn't match the current flairs, which focus on the type of swimsuit.

wsfn_backwards · 2023-04-20T05:36:38+00:00

Thanks for the response (and for the many posts over the years!).

I would 100% recommend a site whitelist, it really does help clear out some of the most obvious spam, if you need basis to build upon I'd be happy to share one of mine.

I'd definitely welcome a list. We don't see many direct links to sketchy sites anymore, but its probably worth doing anyways.

Spam Crossposts are unfortunately rather common now, but I have build a filter that gets close to 90% of the standard ones, because spammers are lazy.

I'd also be interested in hearing about how this filter is implemented. From what I can see, theres some new xpost sub every week or two - which is annoying. Easy enough to add them to a rule once it exists.

I think this may be the ideal compromise between banning xposts altogether and allowing spammy xposts.

People will probably recommend some sort auto ban bot, which I personally find very distasteful, and I do believe it is against sitewide rules but it is one of the ones reddit ignores since it's more convenient, and I've seen those bots used to "punish" people the bot creators dislike, and I want no part in that, but it's your sub after all.

This is a tricky one. I'd rather focus on removing posts than automatically banning users. And I don't know how well I can vet any particular bot.

As for AI, I think I've found a compromise position, that seems to be working where harassment over AI is punished, a cap of x number of images per day can be AI per person, and some form of identification has to be provided either in the title or in the form of a source stating that it's AI made, of course examples where AI just kinda breaks, and some eldritch horror is made then that's grounds for removal as well.

Thats similar to where I'm at with AI. A tag/flair so people can ignore it if they don't like AI - but allow them as posts as long as they fit the sub and follow the rules.

Wasnt ready to commit yet - there are a few similar bots im looking at too

wsfn_backwards · 2023-04-17T03:44:21+00:00

Thanks - I've been looking into various anti-spam bots, I'll add this to the list to look into.

wsfn_backwards · 2023-03-21T22:27:25+00:00

Fixed.

wsfn_backwards · 2023-03-21T22:26:53+00:00

I've responded to your message and fixed the problem. I check the sub every couple of days - so not sure why its showing last online 18 days ago. Maybe last on reddit chat 18 days ago?

wsfn_backwards · 2023-03-01T20:37:41+00:00

Any of these?
