this one’s also a sort of AYRT to the reply below you as well,
but yeah the lava lamp one is understandable because of the spinal section thingy, but from a general standpoint it’s /really petty/ that a hole where the lava comes out from is considered suffering… maybe a suggestion would be to make it glow like a proper lamp but that’s also a reason for staff to just reject it, because you’re bringing attention to it. Anyone seeing capsule wouldn’t think of the complicated reason staff gave, they’d think “oh cool the dragon’s insides are all liquid now” which is sort of… more terrifying.
I dunno, context is important? Sometimes it feels that mods completely ignore the context of the skin just to follow the absolute letter of the rules (that are also unwritten at times). I can’t agree on that at all and mods should defo have the capacity to know what’s clearly suffering and what’s not. I think I’m rambling but yeah
