General Tag Discussion

@LightningBolt  
But do we have another tag for it? It’s a different outfit.

bucking could use a description (standing on the forelegs, with hindlegs in the air, but not stable) and being referred to in rearing ‘s description since it’s the opposite of that, as well as both being referred to in bipedal as opposed to just stating “bipedal” doesn’t apply to momentary poses.

Why you don’t want the “Crystal guardian” tag. I don’t understand.
 
Also crystal guardian is also in MLP dressup game

@Markiz93  
I’m not saying we shouldn’t allow it, I’m asking if we have a different tag for it yet or not.
 
If we don’t, we should use it.  
If we do, we should alias it.

@Markiz93  
I’m not flat against it.  
The first time the tag cropped up the user was tagging it on anything remotely related to the characters in a powered up form, when there was Ponied up. That’s why they were originally asked to stop. Then it seems they ignored that and went back to tagging it after some time had passed.  
I reverted it because it was 1 person deliberately ignoring staff asking them not to tag it, and I had seen other users questioning what the tag was supposed to even be.
 
If it’s the only way to identify that specific form, then I can put it back. Which is why I was asking if it was named anywhere within the show itself. And if any of the other ponied up type tags might be covering it already.

Hrmm, a curious question.
 
Monochrome is the process of only using black and white, or tones of a single color as an art medium.
 
Toned paper is paper that is already of a single color.
 
If someone uses a black pencil and a white pencil on toned paper, is it considered monochrome still?

Nnnope. It is, however, colored pencil, ink drawing, pencil drawing, tan background, and traditional art.

We got downvote bait and upvote bait for OP wanting downvotes or upvotes, respectively.  
But if OP wants faves, is it favourite bait?  

@Panko Pai  
Sounds about right, though they’ll probably alias it into favorite bait to follow along with the other u-less words.
 
The wrong spelling, obviously, but it’s more or less the same thing otherwise.

What’s the difference between imminent rape and this will end in rape?

@Background Pony #A8E1  
The general difference is that “this will end in X” tags are jokes where X is a bit possible and is a bad end to what’s going on, while “imminent X” tags are what’s very certainly about to happen.

@Background Pony #A8E1  
I’m fairly sure that “imminent rape” is when an actual rape is about to happen.
 
While “this will end in rape” is one of the silly tags alongside the other this will end in… tags.  
Like how this will end in tears and/or death is used. Sometimes there might actually be death/tears coming as a result. But it’s also used jokingly. I’d treat the rape one the same.

@Background Pony #A8E1 & @Princess Luna & @Zeb
 
Yeah. For me, images that are “imminent rape” are much darker and tend to be semi-grimdark if not entirely grimdark. Images that are tagged “this will end in rape” are much more tongue-in-cheek and often reference the “>rape” meme.

Alright, thanks.

Why in the ten thousand cages of Tartarus is this will end in rape not in the Default filter? Doesn’t really seem like something random drive-by kids should be exposed to when suggestive is in the Default filter.

@TexasUberAlles  
There’s 20 images with that tag that are also tagged as “safe”. If there’s a problem, it’s not with the filter - it’s with those 20 images being tagged “safe”.

@TexasUberAlles  
Adding every random tag that has sexual meaning to the Default filter is a bad idea as it makes it more likely that mistaggings, subjective tagging, or what have you will mess with proper filtering. Suggestive is a little more controlled in application and should catch anything problematic anyways.
 
@Derpy Whooves  
On each, or being tagged “this will end in rape”, which I find quite likely, considering it’s a rather subjective, jokey tag, that people may put on not because of the image’s actual implications.

@Princess Luna  
Yeah, I agree. I didn’t look through the images, I only looked to see the volume of the issue, and it would be quick work to just go through those and make sure the tag is appropriate for the image.
 
On first blush some of them appear to be jokes, so I’m guessing some of them, if not most, probably are fine.
 
The default filter does a ton of work with very few tags. I really don’t want to see it laden with “every tag that might offend” if that work can be done by other tags that are already within the filter.

Sounds like it should just imply suggestive then, the way rape implies grimdark.

Perhaps coloring such ironic tags something different to warn people that “this might not mean what you think it means”?

@TexasUberAlles  
@Damaged  
These are good suggestions.

@TexasUberAlles  
I would rather have a few tags implying ratings as possible. For too much chance for that to screw things up.
 
@Damaged  
@mjangelvortex  
I’m not sure these types of tags are “special” enough to warrant needing their own color.  
What would it even signify?  
Right now tag colors cover:  
-General  
-Character  
-Fan-Made Content  
-Official Content  
-Incomplete Metadata  
-Original Character  
-Creator/Origin  
-Rating  
-Spoiler

@Zeb  
Maybe Meta? But I can see what you mean now.

@Zeb  
Basically the same thing /s or ⸮ means at the end of a sentence—the tag has more meaning than its wording would otherwise intend (literally, irony).
 
Perhaps better put that non-objectively literal tags get their own coloration.

@TexasUberAlles  
Because it could also end up on an explicit or questionable image. Makes no sense to lock that to suggestive.
