GLBStrange declined-resubmit problem (CLOSED)
399
Ok. The product was declined because of the wrong category.
The first category was Morphs. The subcategory was Matches.
Yes. This product is just two full morphs for matching the base Genesis 9 figure to the base Genesis 8 figure.
Also, in editor, I noticed that the age category has been changed to "sexy or suggestive."
This is just a morph for pose and scale for the base Genesis 9 figure. It does not morph any gender elements. The morph can only match (yes, match, hence the "Match" category) the base G9 figure to the base G8F or to the base G8M.
I am confused and don't know why moderators made decision to change the category. There is no nudity in any promo. In all images I used the base clothes for Genesis 8.
Can someone explain this to me? At the moment I am not trying to edit this product because I have no idea why the product was declined.

"The subcategory was Matches"
You should choose a category and subcategory for what your product is - and not what it does.
When a user types a search for "matches" - this is what they will be expecting to see:
"I noticed that the age category has been changed to "sexy or suggestive"
When you're submitting a product, there are little question mark / info icons for all of the sections.
If you hover over, or click on them, you'll see a popup with some general guidelines.
For Content Rating, it says this for the "Everyone" choice:
"Promo images are safe for all audiences"
And it says this for the "Sexy or Suggestive" choice:
"Promo images contain sexy or suggestive themes"
This is the main thumbnail that I see you submitted:
"I am confused and don't know why moderators made decision to change the category"
Sorry, but I don't see how that could be confusing in the least bit.
Topless guys and girls in bikinis or underwear sure seem sexy to me.
"There is no nudity in any promo"
That's exactly why the reviewer did not change it to "Contains Nudity".
-----
FYI - I can see on your screenshot that the product was also declined for an improper name / title.
Your current "G9 to G8" title isn't very descriptive or helpful at all.
You title should contain information about what your product is, so it will appear in search results when users are looking for "that thing".
I see that you had the right idea when you created your product thumbnail image.
You should probably carry that idea through to your product title.
"Genesis 9 to Genesis 8 Morph Pack" seems about right to me.

Well, I didn't expect that it could be considered nudity, because it's normal attire at the pool or on the beach. But I thought about it, and I think you're right. I will try to keep this rule for future products.
I see that you want to help me. Thank you for your time. This is a small free product. I just don't want to make more renders now, and I would like users to be able to use it already. I have followed your instructions. If I have time before Christmas, I will try to do a new promo and edit this product.
Thank you for your help.

Mon, Dec 19, 2022I think you might be misunderstanding the content rating.
There's nothing wrong with "sexy content" (or more) here at RenderHub.
You don't need to make new promo images. The ones you have are just fine.
A product with a "Sexy or Suggestive" content rating will only affect your product visibility if a user has their SafeSite set to Strict.
SafeSite Strict is for teachers, architects, and other people that wouldn't be interested in products like this anyway.
You'll be just fine leaving it the way it is now.

This explains a very lot. Thank you. It's true that I compared it to restrictions on other popular sites. Now I feel like an argumentative person in a store queue 
Now I have a devilish idea to use these rating for product showcase themes here on the forum and play with words. Is this allowed? Is it allowed but at least unwelcome?

Tue, Dec 20, 2022You're welcome. I try to help people totally understand why things are the way they are here.
And it might help others who stumble across your post.
"Now I feel like an argumentative person in a store queue"
LOL - I didn't take it that way at all.
"...product showcase themes here on the forum and play with words. Is this allowed?"
Since the forum doesn't have a content filter, we try to keep it SFW as much as we can.
But I'm not exactly sure what you mean. What are you thinking? I'll let you know...

- Oh, nothing bad I'm not trying to skirt the rules. I thought such markings in the title of a new product announcement, in the showcase section, would be fun and creative. This is a model of handsome man and he would look better without a shirt.

Thu, Jan 05, 2023To prevent my objects from being declined because of the name of the item, I avoid the terms "genesis", "daz", "daz studio" since this information is already present in pre-filled fields. Since then I have not had any more refusals for the reason "Improperly formatted item name".
But it is true that the title "Margo Character Morph for G8F" has been validated recently! which calls into question what I just wrote

Fri, Jan 06, 2023@DoroThee237 - You're correct about the phrase "Daz Studio". In most cases, you should not add that to your product title.
If you're submitting to the Daz Content section, the system automatically adds "Daz Content by (vendorname)" for you.
However, phrases like "for G8F", "for Genesis 8 Female", etc... Those should always be added to your title (if applicable).
Those phrases are highly used search terms, and will help your product appear when users are searching for that thing here and on search engines like Google.
In your example - "Margo Character Morph for G8F" is the perfect title for that product.
https://www.renderhub.com/razzledazzle3d/margo-character-morph
The title instantly tells the customer (and the search engines) that the product is a "character morph" (and not a full character) - and that it's for Genesis 8 Female (G8F).
And right after that, you'll see the system has added "Daz Content by RazzleDazzle3D".

@Luna_s - Just simply call your product "Mira for Genesis 9" instead of "Mira - Full Genesis 9 Character".
In situations like these, it's very helpful (and faster) to just check and see how other vendors are doing it.
If their products have been approved, yours is likely to be also.
