Can I nuke all atomic heart twin posts please? All I can see is humans in funny suits and/or silver bodypaint and mask, what are they doing on furry site?

There is a lot of Atomic Heart artwork that is probably on topic for the site. Should we nuke it?

My take: I agree, most of these images should be deleted.

I was under the impression they were robots or something similar to warframes.
I'm personally indifferent towards these characters.

tag what you see
Problem is that we literally cannot just go "these characters aren't relevant" because every post has to be evaluated per post basis.
This is why I try to avoid stuff like Vanny from FNAF, toads and these twins, as what they actually are, what they were supposed to be in artwork and how they visually look to viewer can all be differend things.

Also the reason for my comment was that if you look at the not approved upvoted stuff, it's all just these characters currently and the reason why they are there is because they aren't really furry so nobody wants to handle those.

At least with warframes they usually have designs and things that make them bit more clearer something alien and robotic. With these twins all I can think of is some old live action TV shows from japan made in 80's or similar, really cheap costumes or bodypaint in porn.

Zelda's allowed because of her pointed ears, and these are much more clearly nonhuman than her.

Link and Zelda are the biggest loophole with current guidelines.
At least ears continuing from face skin is actual deviation, mask is just... a mask :V

I wouldn't cry any tears over this, either. Humanoid_pointy_ears are enough of a frustration. It would be nice if some uploaders didn't seem so intent to dance on the human-irrelevancy line, but to expect they won't is unrealistic and to demand they don't is idiotic.

It really depends on the artist's style whether they seem robot or not, but if it was up to me I'd probably say most images just barely seem non-human enough, with others being very robotlike and some just looking like plain masked humans.

I'm assuming that robots are relevant to e621, but the upload guidelines don't seem to state it either way.

Very much robot

A little more borderline

Basically just a shiny masked human

No. Maybe some sure, but in general no, I do not support that.

I'm not sure, from my point of view, The Twins fall in a similar place to the nurses from silent hill, they are for the most part faceless humanoids.

I believe they should be allowed, there are far "worse" cases than this.
