"Why was this pic deleted?"

ITS LITERALLY UP IN THE GALLERY NOW WHAT THE HELL MAN

I just took a look at it, and it appears blurry when trying to look at the muscles.

I took the image directly from the source via snapinsta like everyone does. I find this really unfair, I try to take care to selectively post good quality muscle. Yes it's just image uploading on a website about girls with muscle, but I've had several instances where I have unfairly been denied, when the exact same thing is happening (sometimes at the same time) and they go unpunished.

Let me finish by saying you're all doing well running a site that is probably difficult, but I think I'll just spectate from now on.

Sometimes the original is not of good quality, so this is really an issue of the source image (I've seen plenty of poor images on Instagram). Also having an image removed is not a punishment, but part of the "semi-curated" process of ensuring the better images are kept (I appreciate this is subjective). I myself have had images removed, both from before being a mod and as a mod, but accept it is just part of the process - it can be frustrating.

Also as mods we may not always agree with each other, but this is the side effect of being humans with different opinions and interpretations of the guidelines (though we do try to keep in sync). At the same time, throwing AI at the task would result in far worse decisions.

is AI making calls on our uploads?

speaking of AI, was this really morphed? If so, then she needs to be put on notice.

No it isn’t. Humans are doing this as volunteers, in their spare time.

I’m going to need to trust the mod who made the judgement, since I don’t usually have the best eye for morphs. At the same time, was this from the model’s Instagram or somewhere else? Would need to work if she is morphing her own images or if someone else is.

It looks like it's from her Instagram:

It doesn't look morphed too me. Seems in line with her other pictures. She has amazing legs.

it's back. from another user.

I just saw it. Name is Karliz Torres, uploaded by "Faith." Should be easy to check her other recent pictures.

It does look somewhat artificial, but I think that may be due to a combination of lens distortion stretching everything away from the center, and a contrast & sharpness filter, instead of something like AI "enhancement".

Possible distortion aside, her legs look similar in some of her actual videos, so I'd be inclined to restore this one, and keep an eye on her stuff (some women, or at least the people running their social media, can get a little too "retouch-happy" even when they already look great).

The lines of the paving stones behind her are not straight so it might be her waist has been pinched but hard to be sure - she already had a recent pic removed for suspected morphing look at the wavy lines to her right (more waist pitching?) and compare with other pic though don't know the source of the morphed one :

Compare it with this one which is still on the site:

This isn't even the 1st time this month I've had an upload removed, only to be uploaded by another user and it being perfectly fine. Do you see where my grievances are coming from? I've lost several valid uploads and quite a few points as a result.

If there's any editing, maybe it's around where the pavement line seems to distort at her waist?

Yeah, looking closer at some of her other pics, I've decided to put Karliz Torres on the soft blacklist for self-morphing. A lot of it looks like waist-shrinking, note that in none of her videos does her waist appear as impossibly tiny as it does in some of her pics:

She seems to have something of a thing for wanting her waist to appear smaller, either by squeezing the sides of it or hiding the sides with clothing in videos, or in the case of the still photos nudging some areas in with photoshop. Like I said, I think she looks amazing without tricks (her videos alone seem worth leaving her allowed on the site in some form), but I guess bodybuilding lends itself to pursuing unrealistic standards.

Anyway, I restored the photo in question and a few others of hers that were removed for similar suspicions. butterflybooty's version of it was lower in quality than Faith's, so it still ended up merged.

If the other person uploaded directly instead of it going into the queue, it likely wasn't even seen by a mod. If you upload anything that's in a grey area in terms of "discouraged" categories, then there's a subjective judgement call on whether it gets removed or not, and we tend to place more emphasis on filtering out subpar uploads in the queue than removing every questionable pic that's already on the site. If you really can't stand the thought of one of your uploads being rejected, I would recommend staying away from anything of questionable quality and/or in the discouraged categories, since those have a much higher chance of being removed.

where's that goob guy when you need him lmao
