《Tippy's Notebook》Wattpad Guidelines - why books are being deleted
Advertisement
I'm just posting the message on my main board here so people can read this going forward.
This should answer all your questions
---------
https://support.wattpad.com/hc/en-us/articles/200774334-Content-Guidelines - here's the link to read up on what's going on with Wattpad.
I'm making this post to stop miscommunication and I really don't want any more messages telling me about this situation after this.
Wattpad is only enforcing restrictions they already had in place, but never really checked for years. Now, if your books violate their guidelines, they remove them which they are legally allowed to do.
My books are a marked as 'Mature' which do protect me to an extent. However, they may decide that my books violate their guidelines in terms of Pornographic Content.
My scenes are explicit, there's no denying that, but I don't see them as pornographic. However, the guideline says that if your work exists solely for sexual stimulation, they will delete it.
That is not the case with my books as my books contain plot, character development, action etc, and hopefully they see that and leave them alone.
The only book I have which is clearly violating the guidelines is Perfect Mates.
That book has incest which is an illegal sex act in Canada - where Wattpad comes from.
For that reason, if Perfect Mates is taken down, Wattpad has every right to do so.
I may take it down myself to avoid any attention coming onto the rest of my account. I'll have to think on that this weekend.
If I do take it down, it'll be on Inkitt so don't worry about that.
Hopefully this clears things up for everyone, not only my books, but all books on the platform.
I will continue to update on Wattpad and I will start to update on Inkitt. Whichever platform you choose to use, is up to you.

I AM NOT LEAVING WATTPAD FOR INKITT!!!
I AM NOT DELETING MY CONTENT ON WATTPAD (other than maybe Perfect Mates) OR LEAVING IT!
I AM SIMPLY USING ANOTHER PLATFORM ALONGSIDE IT!
Please do not message me telling me my books are going to be deleted, or to save them, or with any more of this, UNLESS it is to share new information released by Wattpad themselves.
I already have all my work saved and I'm doing as much as I can to protect my work.
To end, I just want to say thank you for all the care and support guys, I really appreciate it and I love having such a supportive audience ❤️

The Magic Man (Very Dead)
John was a fan of system apocalyspes, so he thought he knew what coming when he got caught up in one. He was wrong. This was an apocolypse in the original sense of the word, an unvieling. There were no ravenous hordes of monsters, no genocidal tutorials, and certainly no aliens from another dimension. Just humans. So John thought, "How can I exploit this?" This is my first story, and I am writing it as I go. Dont expect a regular update schedule or much long-term foreshadowing.

Into the Feywild
I've never considered myself to be much of a fighter. In fact, I had no notion what it was all about. I couldn't envision a war amongst people, especially my own. In this odd realm, a timid half-elf has little chance of success. Especially with minimal experience. I've only fought as a means of survival, self-defense, if you will. I had known only humans, so the concept of elven culture and family was foreign to me. And yet, here I am, in the midst of a tremendous battle between two Feys and a God. I never planned for things to turn out this way, or for me to get caught in the great shambles of war—a conflict between good and evil. My two companions are practically strangers to me, knowing nothing but my name. This journey was not something I had planned or wished for, but it was what the Gods gave me.◈ ◈ ◈Meli, a young half-elf traveling the Material Plane, is unexpectedly captured while on her travels, only to become a member of an odd group of individuals. Crane, an older wizard castaway from his college for practicing unnatural magic, and Kurky, a youthful and lively gnome who is as fascinating as they come. Meli's curiosity gets the better of her as she chooses to accompany them on their not so concrete journey into the Feywild. Little did they know of the constant war raging within this woodsy plane. Maybe Meli will discover everything she's been looking for, embracing love and pleasure along the way. Or perhaps she'll become a part of something bigger. © Copyright to EmmeMeadows 2021
