Tag dictionary

@Zahnrad  
Exactly.

@Background Pony #6B47  
morbidly obese balls :^D

@Background Pony #6B47  
Would hyper balls be appropriate, then?

@Napsack  
“hyper” and “impossibly large” are basically synonyms. This is a different brand of impossibly large/hyper.

@Background Pony #6B47  
They’re not meant to be synonyms. As much as I’d like to say that creating your tag would just add more confusion though, it probably won’t, seeing as it’s so specifically named. I really don’t know what else to say here.

When using the “Nyx” or “oc:Nyx” tag it comes up with a picture of her now. I was wondering, there is another picture by the same artist with her in her disguise. Can I request that the other picture be used also/next to her?

So… are the “wall of ‘x’” and “‘x’ galore” tags just nonexistent anymore?

@FirelordofHyrule  
Yes. They’ve been saying for months they were going to phase them out since when you can use upvotes.gte:200, downvotes.gte:50 and favorites.gte:300 to the exact same effect, combined with the fact that they don’t have to be manually noticed and added to images, they’re all pointless.

@Keith Mowz  
Why not use >, >=, etc instead of gt, gte, etc?

@iloveportalz0r  
Because that’s not how the search system works.

@Barhandar  
Okay. I guess we can just apply my definition to [immobilized], then. Mods|anyone else care to chime in? Also, what’s up with the silent tag ban?

@Keith Mowz  

 
Well we have multiple terms for AND, OR and NOIT, like using coma, + and - or ||, && instead of it. Same thing her.  
It probablly could be implemented rather easyily. As far as >, <, = aren’t used in a different way.

@Background Pony #6B47
 
… there’s no “step” beyond impossibly large balls. Those are all impossibly large.
 
That said, there’s a clear appeal to sexual organs pressing against floors / tables / etc, regardless of size, and you should be quite free to tag it, e.g. ass on glass | pressed balls | pressed breasts | etc.
 

 
I would advise using a separate wiki-style page entry for tag descriptions a la e621 (compare result page to wiki page)

Tag: vulva  
Description: External parts of female genitalia.
 
 
Tag: vagina  
Description: Internal parts of female genitalia. Normally not visible (tag that “vulva” instead) unless the labia is spread or there is an internal view/x-ray.

@Barhandar  
You really ought to learn when to quit

@Lucky Shot  
Pot calling kettle black.

@Zahnrad
 
Remind me, when did I begin forcing sweeping and unwanted changes to tags on an image board again..?

@Lucky Shot  
Who’s “forcing” what, now? I don’t see where you’re getting any of that from a regular user suggesting tag definition changes in the Tag dictionary thread.

@TexasUberAlles
 
Sorry, I forgot to point out the context – he made his post in this topic because an administrator told him to move the argument away from this image:
 

 
All emphasis (bold and italics) in the below quoted posts is identical to the original post unless otherwise stated.
 
It started with another user who kind of just went in and started changing things.
 
@Sakaki1999  

 
This was argued back and forth over the course of an hour or two before Barhandar arrived and immediately began condescending:
 
@Barhandar  

 
@Lucky Shot  

 
@Barhandar  

 
So to summarize:  
– Barhandar openly admits that the majority is against him and literally tells everyone they’re going to have to deal.  
– Apparently Barhandar doesn’t have to be a moderator to force this change onto everyone, but I have to be a moderator to stop him. Okay!
 
It’s really simple. Nobody is going to use those tags the way he’s defined them. That’s why no other image board uses “scientifically accurate” tags. They use tags the way people use them when searching. If he lacks the basic awareness to understand this simple tenet then he’s not suitable for making any decisions on a public service.
 
Derpibooru should not reward smug narcissism, especially when it’s detrimental to their bottom line, especially when it’s a really common tag like vagina.
 
And if you’re going to respond “Pot calling the kettle black durhur”, that kind of doesn’t work since Derpibooru has never rewarded any smugness or narcissism from me. I have been suspended. That is the exact opposite of a reward.
 
And I’m pretty sure that someone prowling through the site changing extremely common tags without waiting for authorization is a lot worse than yelling at a few people in the comments!

The whole vagina vs vulva thing again?
 
I started a thread awhile back to hopefully address this, but it didn’t get a lot of attention and devolved into silliness.
 
That said, having a separate forum post for this discussion is probably a good idea, to dissuade flooding this topic’s goal.

@Googlipod  
It got attention alright …  
Just moderators making fun of dt

Nobody ever bothers to read the gorram tag descriptions anyway; if uploaders are just too stupid to use a pair of related tags correctly, have one imply the other with notes on their respective tag pages explaining that we can’t have nice things, and be done with it. I’m sure the mods have better things to do than try to handhold people who don’t know the difference because they’ve never met one of those in the wild and had a lousy public education.

I really want the “upvotes galore” and “wall of faves” tags back.
