Hello @litguru,
I truly appreciate your enthusiasm in being the first to inaugurate this community. Your contribution is valid and valued; however, it’s not quite aligned with the essence of this space.
To preserve the coherence and harmony of our vision, it’s important that we respect the community guidelines, which were created as a reference for participation.
In the community’s welcome post, we made it clear that this is a space for imaginary journeys through real photographs—in this case, it should have been a real video, not one generated by AI.
I warmly invite you to revisit the participation guidelines.
1 - Fictional journeys, real settings.
2 - You’re welcome to write in English or in your native language—no pressure at all.
3 - You may use any literary genre to share your story. Let your creativity lead the way.
4 - Share your own photos.
5 - We’d appreciate it if you shared something small that brings you joy at the end of your post.
6 - Respect above all. No abuse, aggressive language, or offensive content.
7 - Genuine interaction among members. Engage with intention, comment thoughtfully.
8 - No plagiarism.
9 - No spam or excessive self-promotion.
I would ask you to edit the post so that it aligns with the guidelines, but in this case it would require a brand new one—so I'm truly sorry. 🤷♀
We’d be delighted to welcome you and read your stories—this, too, is something I wish to emphasise: stories. What you’ve shared is a review of Rendora, which belongs elsewhere.
Thank you for the clarification. I wasn't sure if creating alternate environments with a mix of AI and personal photographs like this would fit in this context and manner.
I honestly have no idea... what we want are real places, even if the stories we live in them are fictional or imagined. AI is not real, and besides, we want authors to write their own stories—not to use AI to do it for them. Should I include that in the rules too? 🤔
I think in the absence of examples, I had to guess. So as more people write and the feed populates, it will become clearer to creators.
Surrounding the issue with AI, it's very tricky because I used a mix of AI and my own photographs and text, so I think it has to be made clear that the focus should be text and images (or video) that do not rely on AI. You will likely need an AI detector for text if you're concerned that people will use it to generate the whole text. AI Images are also looking realistic lately, but I don't know if there's a way to detect it.
This community is a great idea, so I hope it grows. Thank you for this clarification.
You're welcome and thank you for your good wishes. I moved the part about using one's own photos and videos to the second point in the rules to make it clearer. AI is a tricky subject, but I believe we all know it's 'not real'.
