Topic: Are These Allowed?

Posted under General

In regards to posts https://e621.net/posts/5459280 and https://e621.net/posts/5459286.

Lincoln Loud is 11 years old, canonically.
I flagged then as 'young human-like character'; They were unflagged.
I PM'd the approver of the posts 3 days ago, on 2025-03-27; Have yet to get a reply.
I flagged then again; They were unflagged.

Nothing in the images marks Lincoln as an adult in either post; No facial hair. No proportions. No tags.
And since e6 is 'tag what you see', and I presume that also applies to flagging posts; That would make those posts against the rules, yeah?
So why has my flagging been quietly removed twice? Why have I been ignored?

Edit: I should add that I am asking to clear up my own confusion, and avoid making any mistakes in reporting posts in the future. Not to call anyone out. Hence why I did not name the mod I PM'd; It could be that they have not been online in 3 days or something else.

If your flag is removed don't reflag the post, that's Abuse Of Site Tools

The young human-like character rule is applied on a per-post basis, outside lore does not matter
Nothing in the image makes the characters look underage, thus they are assumed to be adults

I would not call that "being ignored". NotMeNotYou is the one who unflagged it first, and his decisions are final.
Aside from that, nothing marks them as young either. Canon has no effect on determining if they are "young human/like"

I guess that's my answer. It just seems odd to assume a character is adult if the canon says otherwise.
Like, if someone drew Chara from Undertale the same way; Would we assume Chara was adult when the canon says they are a kid?

That answers my question right as I posted. Thank you :)

Add young_(lore) and be done with it. You make a show of saying they are young by twys standards and now you're arguing about canon

If the result is indeterminate we assume they're adults, paying no heed to lore.

I was simply puzzled.
If we assume all characters are adult unless clearly not, then that's how I will proceed.

Yes, I recommend you do so
