Hello,
Just curious as to why a few videos of mine that were accepted, and on Adobe for over a year and a half for sale, one of which has sold twice, now for some reason, has been deemed to be too gory, when you currently have over 12,000 videos equally gory, or even more gorier.
Some screenshots of my videos attached.
Cheers!

We are not Adobe but contributors like yourself and we can not be of assistance as to why your asset was removed.

Did Adobe say they were too gory or is that just your assumption? You can see the removal reason on the "not accepted" tab, and it's usually much more generic that "too gory"....

Hi Jill, thanks for replying.

Adobe has been conducting audits on their existing assets and indeed millions have been removed from the database over the last several months, irrespective of whether they've ever sold before. In some cases, they never should have been approved, and in other cases, they have actually modified their guidelines over the years.

Adobe changed what they accept in their database, and they did audit the content for assets that are now incompatible with the new rules. When it got accepted, the asset did respect the rules of that time.
There is nothing to be confused about. That is ongoing business in a changing world.

BTW: your attachments have “Virus scan in progress…”. I think this is a forum error.

Indeed, it's a widespread system problem. I reported the Bug on Friday the 13th. But being that this is the weekend, it probably won't receive attention until Monday or Tuesday. There's also a problem with the log-in servers which has also been reported.
In the meantime, use this forum's embed feature to insert photos into posts.
Thanks for your patience.

Just checked your attachments. It does not look like your assets are that bloodthirsty and shocking, but it may well be that Adobe thinks otherwise. It is not as with quality issues, where there are good arguments for deleting the asset, but it's more a soft refusal. We can't comment on Adobe's policy in that matter.

I supposed Adobe Stock knows who their audience is and what they buy.
This is what you're competing with.
