I brought it up in Artist Recruiter, and we held a vote that ultimately led to the decision to remove your artist role. I apologize for not informing you sooner—I take full responsibility for that oversight.
That said, I believe the reasons I presented for the vote were fair, and others seemed to agree. Please know that this decision was purely based on artistic criteria and not personal in any way.
The reasons why your role was removed are:
- You rarely post art in the art topic.
- The art you have posted has gotten moved to other topics or doesn’t clearly fit in the art topic.
- Your posts in the art topic are infrequent and lack the level of detail and polish we’re looking for.
- You used one of your art posts (which was later moved) as a way to get moderators’ attention after your suggestion posts were removed (see here: Late-game effects).
These are the two topics that were posted in the art topic but got moved:
- Moved to off-topic: Experimental Powers
- Moved to game-discussion: Late-game effects
A topic you created in game-discussion includes a doodle with a similar level of detail and quality as the other artwork you’ve posted in the art topic.
These are art pieces that you have posted in art-topic (besides the ones that were moved):
This is your most recent post, which would be a better fit in the writing or game discussion topics, as the artwork itself doesn’t quite stand on its own and appears more like a quick illustration intended as a visual aid for your writing.

If you’d like to submit a new artist request, you’re welcome to do so. If you feel this decision wasn’t made on fair grounds, I’m open to discussing it further, and I can bring it up with the artist recruiters.
I agree that you should have been informed; however, I would point out that you’ve received two prior warnings through having your topics moved.
I wouldn’t say artist recruiters are stricter now; rather, there are simply more people involved in handling and voting on requests. Previously, it was on one or two people to make decisions, but now there’s a wider discussion about what meets the standard. With more voices in the process, the quality bar has naturally aligned with what it ideally should have been. This doesn’t mean that existing artists will lose their roles, but if an artist’s work consistently lacks quality, misuses the art topic, causes issues, or doesn’t fit the topic, recruiters have the option to bring it up with other recruiters and hold a vote.
