In some of my older creations I used exaggerated filters and never had any problems, like this one , This one or this one, So what is fair on this site?
@crazyplaness, can you just restore the damn build, you pretty much made up this law on the spot, this isn't what the "misleading thumbnail" rule refers to.
Maybe some strict rules for shaders should be added, clear rules actually improves creativity, as game IP copyright areas have found out.
My opinion is that your drawing-style shader pack is too far off the build
@DARZAVIATION the 1st and 3rd still look fairly obviously simpleplanes, since the colors are retained. The 2nd one is definitely going too far, i think it's enough for mods to remove.
32's example is also enough to remove
The only difference is the color, like, whats in the thumbnail is the plane it’s the same thing it’s not misleading at all it’s just too cool for school I guess
I believe that the rules only state that a plane will be removed if the thumbnail is misleading, so there’s not really any precedent. If it doesn’t show any fine details or colors guess that black-and-white images taken from a distance aren’t allowed. The only think I can think of is I vaguely remember a mod saying it did have to be a game screenshot and not a blender render but crazyplanes should have said that and not made it up retroactively after being told it was just a filter.
@crazyplaness
Now let me ask this, are you gonna enforce this rule to everyone? Cause the only reason I thought this was okay is that fact that I've seen others do it, otherwise I wouldn't have tried. So why am I getting penalized if they're not?
While the thumbnail does show the craft and is based on an in-game screenshot, it isn’t representative of the actual craft since it doesn’t show the fine details, colors, and can’t be replicated in game.

this one also prolly needs to be taken down if that’s the rule we’re following
@crazyplaness it might interest you to take a look at this user's posts, if you're going to police people's thumbnails don't do it partially
@ToeTips Yes
@crazyplaness
Can I re-upload with another thumbnail?
@CaptainNoble, I’ve discussed this with other moderators, and we’ve decided to keep it removed.

@hpgbproductions
Alright then, if it's a function of vague and obscure rules, can I have my post back or do I re-upload?

I do not agree with the mods verdict on this one.
@ToeTips I like your way of thinking 😈
@32
Well then, if I really wanted to, I could scour the site for similar thumbnails they let slide and make a new forum post about each one I find.
Plus if I were to re-upload, I'd be breaking another rule.
@ToeTips I like my plane game drama like I like my Thai food… spicy
@32
Very good point.
So is it possible we reinstate the post so I can delete this forum post and we can all move past this?

@crazyplaness
Well now you know it's not, there's proof that it is actually a filter of a screenshot in SP. Can I have my post back?
@Bugati87 @ToeTips I probably could have explained it more clearly. I removed it because it looks like a pencil drawing, and not a simpleplanes craft.
@crazyplaness So my theory was correct
@crazyplaness So... Delete all my creations
@CaptainNoble
God bless!
If that's the rule then fine, but it should be enforced for all.

@CaptainNoble
Exactly, cause I don't have beef with anyone... At least as far as I know.
