I know that there's a tier system for what should be tagged as overweight and whatever, but it doesn't really appear to be followed in any particular way. People just seem to arbitrarily just tag whatever they don't like about it so it could show up on their blacklist. I can understand as to why it's done but it makes tagging the other thousand or so pictures that are also incorrectly tagged difficult.

As of now, there's many pictures that are just tagged as slightly_chubby, overweight, and obese, and often two of those tags don't even apply to the post. Should the weight system be enforced in any way to kind of stop this from happening? Because sometimes whenever I remove a few tags to correct the issue, someone will come over and replace the tags that were removed, even though the tags that there originally there were inappropriate and had nothing to do with the post.

Mostly it's a headache to police, and we don't currently have someone that obsesses over it.

Report users who are adding tags without removing any. As for if they are... Bring it up in the IRC, see what we can say about it. Fill out the edit reason about it and if they persist, well, I'm sure y'know by now.

Anything tagged obese will automatically have overweight added to it. slightly_chubby likely shows up because they tried to tag chubby, which is aliased to slightly_chubby.

If you want to find overweight without obese, use overweight -obese.
If you want to find overweight and obese without obese by itself, tough shit. You can't do it.

I'm talking about all three of the tags being present in one post. slightly_chubby implies that a character has a small amount of extra weight, so the obese tag doesn't automatically apply. And likewise, a large character with a BMI of >50 is not "slightly chubby".

Like I said, it's likely because they're trying to add chubby and obese. One changes to slightly_chubby and the other implies overweight.

Now that I think about it, slightly_chubby is a very dubious tag and it really doesn't apply well to most of it's corresponding posts. Is there any reasoning as to why it's 'slightly chubby' and not just chubby? Just from looking at the posts from the tag, most of them really are not applicable to it.
