Why do they do this?
>>
>>7155116
Sometimes it's just too damn embarrassing, and I'm not mentally healthy enough to cope with the idea of my trash being seen by people with good taste.
I'm not saying it's right. I'm saying if given a choice between deleting a drawing I don't like and undergoing ten years of psychotherapy for an unhealed childhood wound I'm choosing delete every goddamn time.

>Why do they do this?
Personally, I waver between wanting to engage with social media but not being able to psychologically handle it. I find it relatively easy to gain new followers with my art, but once I have them I feel a mixture of embarrassment, shame, and obsession with growing the number. When I realize I still can't interact with social media in a healthy way, I delete everything and the bad feelings I have around it go away.

Rather than social media, I'm planning going forward to make personal gallery that doesn't have any way for viewers to interact with it. That way, I have a link to share when someone wants to see my work, but no view count or favorites or anything else for me to develop unhealthy feelings around.

True story, is they found a real job in the indrustry, anon
It's not uncommon

>>7155213
I don't know sounds kind of based.

>>7155116
The ones I don't get are when they will purge or do a takedown of a specific booru, but leave the others up.
It would make sense if you were at least consistent.

gloss? I'm sure there are a lot that have stopped doing nsfw.

This. Knew of a fetish art chick who got a "real" job, deleted her gallery and asked everyone who ever commissioned her not to share it. Cucks went along with it of course because all coomers are simps.
>>
>>7155213
Every single one?
>>
>>7155116
I know this might be a foreign concept to you since you're attention starved, but having thousands of eyeballs on your work can be very embarrassing some times
>>
>>7155116
Japan has a society based on shame.
R-18 artists deleting their work from time to time can be cause by them being ashamed of their current art or because they (mistakenly) blamed drawing porn as the source of all the bad things in their lives (instead of the ACTUAL reasons, e.g. being lazy outside of drawing, being too shy or a pushover to socialize, etc).

It's no different from anyone of us deleting our porn and game folders in a moment of depression.
>>
>>7155116
in this case its because image scrappers are using the boorus
>>
Always download.
Always save.
Always reupload.
Always tell the moralfags to fuck off.
>>
>>7156008
Literally said what I was going to say. Always obnoxious that these normalfags always blame the producer of the content for not leaving it online forever, when it's YOUR job to fucking save everything you like. It's no one else's responsibility to be your hard drive.

Then don't post the shit online you projecting attention whore? The entire point of anyone posting art on IG or Twitter is to get eyeballs on it. If you don't want people seeing your shit but one at archived, organize it in a folder. You're a special kind of mentally ill if you beg for attention and then Go ape shit when you actually get it. I'm starting to see white geriatric boomers think of us as weak andpathetic. The tiniest inconvenience and it's the end of the world for you guys

Leave it alone,it is either a tranny or worse, a woman
>>
>>7156006
The only way to truly avoid AI scrapers is to keep your shit locked up forever behind a paywall come up which most of them will not do because the entire point of posting your shit on lineup to get more eyeballs on it. If they go completely off the grid, then they will be forgotten. This is especially true for Western artists that are obsessed with cloud and likes and shares and updoots

5yr+ stagnation /begs/ will never understand the concept of looking back on your old work and cringing violently.
>>
>>7156138
I still don't understand why you need to delete the shit though? If your art style improves drastically and looks way better than the cringy shit than why not just showcase that? That just shows that you are able to improve and shows others that they can improve if they actually try. Deleting your shit because "it's cringe" is just normal fag insecurity

The baking occurs at the beginning. Going ape shit refers to going nuclear and deleting all of your work because of a small inconvenience, you weak child. Should I dumb it down even further since I struck suck a nerve?

everyone has their own reasons and giving a reason would just be projecting your own reason

This literally isn't any sort of cultural component of Japan. You're projecting your western idea of shame onto them
>>
Why are you so interested in art made by people you think are stupid mentally ill attention whores? And why should they keep their work online for the amusement of people who think of them like that?
>>
>>7155116
Usually this is pedoshit or fujoshit baggage the artist can't carry around anymore due to employment

I often think about deleting my social media. I'm sick of it. It's all so meaningless and superficial. It's embarrassing to see that my art shifted to pretty girls posing in a void, this is not what I want to be known for. In fact, I don't want to be know at all, I hate being the center of attention. It used to be comfy to share my work and interact with a few people every now and then. But at some point my followers became just a number and interactions superficial compliments. People pandering to you to repost their stuff. I don't care about these petty social games. It's meaningless.

I saw this happen to one nip i was following for a long time. His case was that he freaked the f out when some other nip copied his artstyle. Idk why he freaked out that much about it that he deleted his entire gallery.. youd think the guy got raped or something.

It's what some people think they have to do when they "go legit". Got to look clean cut professional and pretend the NSFW art never ever happened. The thing is anything posted on the internet in the first place will get copied and archived somewhere.
>>
It's usually that they became too popular and they don't know how to handle people "stealing" from them by reposting and sharing images or it's because people, usually gaijin, asking them for free requests and shit. In the case of the latter you might see them pop up on more japanese oriented sites like nijie or their own blog under a new name

Internet content is always getting deleted, ESPECIALLY these last years thanks to DMCA and AI shit.
You should always save shit you don't want to lose, don't expect other to do it for you

>deleting your shit off social media is almost considered like suicide
>of course the thread is actually about porn and more about if they didn't save it
I dunno, i also get disillusioned when my only works that gets any kind of attention, praise, engagement or appreciation is anything with tits.
Sure, i get it, but my kokujin in christ there is more to life than just jerking off.

It's hard to imagine anyone but nutjobs and kiddies, feeling any kind of accomplishment because they pander to the lowest common denominator and get praised for it.
People like tits n sex? wowers Who would've thunk lol and lmao so zased n cultured fr fr

You start to become aware of this, and start to think:
>Does my work really matter or is it because people just like jerking off? Does it make my work my own at all, or is it just fapping material to kids and addicts? Does my effort really matter or is it genuinely just tits n pussy that carry anything i do?
Imagine baking a cake, and people just want to buy the decorations, but they won't buy the decorations if there is no cake with it.
You are basically wasting energy and time to make a whole cake just to be able to sell decorations.
And the waste adds over time, so once you reach the critical point, you just delete shit.

If you want robots that should feel nothing and produce porn non-stop and for free, just use AI already and stay in your cum plastered basements.

I don't get how people are still this clueless about the internet or getting offended over people's reactions to their art. Don't bother posting in the first place.

Yeah, how dare they expect decency on the internet. Don't they know humans are trash? Let's all be trash. Let's eat trash, and talk trash, and sleep in trash, and treat each other like trash.
