People should know what stand-in words mean. I mean, if you don't a large amount of American English would be damaged apon translating (or even shorthanding/longhanding), and people have to use English words on this site for a reason.

I mean, do you know why a female can be called a cougar, or what in-bed roleplaying is? You need to assume that people know the basics of English on this site, and some sexual terminology; I might halfheartedly believe everyone is an idiot, but even such "idiots" know how to use a dictionary if they're on this site.

But wittiness aside, being a prey towards a predator can be interpreted literally to understand what the prey_bulge tag means. We wouldn't tag them, themselves, as predator or prey because contexts that remove that, but you can refer to them in English as a predator and a prey... right?

So in this case, the prey would be the character inside another, while the character who has the prey inside them would be the predator? Wouldn't that be somewhat confusing if the prey in this scenario was the dominant partner? There's also the traditional roles of predator and prey among real-life species, though of course that wouldn't always apply to fictional characters.

i suppose prey_outline could work, however, I would expect that it would confuse some users. Though, that is what the wiki is for anyway.

EDIT: I've looked through a "*penis*" search and nothing has come up about being lifted by a penetrating penis. penis_riding comes closest I guess? But I think a new tag might be appropriate.

Penis_riding specifies "straddling or lying on an erect penis", not being penetrated by it. I'm not sure that it would be appropriate to tag the images I have in mind with penis_riding, since they involve penetration.

Well, with us as an example, there are people who know what it is and have no difficulty tagging it. There is also people who'd rather it blacklisted, which opens up opportunities to explain it (and others).

If we are to assume that everyone starts uploading vore, then we'd have to make the tag well known fast, before tagging it gets out of hand. But it's not the most common of details, so we should have ample time to make it noticeable before it gets out of control.

I did specify that round or amorphous bulges don't count in the body_outline wiki, that can be copied over to prey_outline. On that note, a body_outlineprey_outline alias suggestion should be submitted.

Updated by anonymous

Prey outline suggests intentional vore to me, like actually wanting to consume. Leaves out lighter things like unbirthing or extreme fisting.

Is there a tag for pictures that have a bunch of different art together, like post #83589, post #1191073, or post #1114833? My explanation is terrible, but I think my examples get my point across. There are several characters on the same screen, or even the same characters multiple times, but they're not interacting with each other.

We have violence for characters damaging other characters and vandalism for characters damaging inanimate objects but what about characters damaging robots? Would it be one of those two or something else?

Anything for when a character slides their glasses down a bit so they can see over the top of them?

Feelings have nothing to do with violence. Do you mean sentience, or feelings as in the ability to feel pain?

I found another potential candidate for the list mentioned in forum #232254: A necktie headband.

post #191039

We could probably call this group of tags something like "clothing_worn_incorrectly", "unusual_clothing_placement", "wearing_it_wrong" or something along those lines.

I believe it would vary according the case. If the robot seems to act like a live being, then it ought be considered as such (regarding the context of this site) and the act would fit in violence; if it simply act as a complex machine, then the act would count as vandalism.

I guess that is more or less what Sorrowless meant.

It is a possibility. 'doing_it_wrong' would encompass those cases, however the tag is too generic and unconventionally worn clothes, perhaps, is enough common to warrant a more specific tag.

Edit: 'wearing_it_wrong' sounds good, I highly doubt someone would get it wrong.

I don't know. doing_it_wrong images usually involve some form of failure or the character doing something stupid as well as incorrectly.

post #252129post #327778post #153009post #139483

The tags for this group are more a case of simply wearing something in a different way, often for practical reasons.

Yeah. I would also say that if a machine who otherwise is stationary and looks like an object is upset by you hurting it it goes towards violence.

Hmmmm, practical reasons do you say? I sincerely have some problems at visualising a situation in which wearing briefs on head, or something similar, would be considered "practical" (unless the individual in question is either attempting to be funny, or trying to humiliate itself, or it is just... kinky).

Furries often can't wear hats properly due to their ears being closer to the top of their head. The leg holes in a pair of underwear are in roughly the right position for them. And yes, I did just pull that explanation out of my arse.

People tying clothing around their waist is a fairly common practice in my area because it allows them to carry a jumper without using their arms. People tying clothing around their neck is less common but serves the same purpose.

Remember I said "often" for practical reasons, meaning it isn't always. It could simply be a stylistic choice.

I thought about 'rapid_transition', it sounds a bit vague, but may work... Or 'casual_to_sex' maybe, though it sounds similar to 'casual_sex'

Spontaneous sex?

Updated by anonymous

A (usually very small) character in another character's clothing? I doubt shared_clothing counts since it's currently defined as multiple characters wearing the same clothing and in the example, the cat isn't exactly wearing that coat.

Would fire coming out of a character's nose still count as fire_breathing, or something else?

Hmmm. 'spontaneous' is used to something that happens without any apparent stimulus, it doesn't seem to fit well in this case.

Sure it does. They're just having a casual conversation, that's not the sort of thing to lead to sex so immediately, yet, bam, spontaneously it does.

The only thing furry-related to it is that some people have taken "covfefe" to be a combo between Koffing and Eevee. So perhaps someone could make an image featuring that creature?

Do we have anything similar to the minimally tagged spellcasting? That is, magic currently being cast? And if not, do you suppose that we should tag that more?

The basic magic tag is overtly broad and kind of useless for searches, but on the other hand, spellcasting does overlap a lot with magic_user.. So maybe the latter is enough for those?

Well, we have 'spell', which appears to be more specific than 'magic', also 'summoning' which is a type o spellcasting, and 'magic_circle' which usually is associated to spellcasting.
Perhaps would be interesting to analyze 'spellbook' and 'spell_book' as well.

Thanks. I was under the impression that spell had been aliased to magic, but yeah, looks like it's implicated instead. I suppose that works, though considering that it's been tagged for posts such as #583247, spellcasting might've been a better name for it.

I don't know, hat_removed has only been tagged twice and 'removed' tags in general are almost non-existant around here.

Just because a tag is underutilized doesn't mean you can't or shouldn't use it. At the very least it can act as a placeholder until someone comes along and decides upon a better version, if one is needed at all.

BlueDingo said:
doing_it_wrong could work for the first example, but wouldn't most instances of penis_hat fall into this category as well?

Uh, idk...probably not. A hat over the dick is a pretty common trope, I wouldn't really consider it "wrong" in the same way as say...wearing pants on your head. Furthermore sometimes they are wearing a tiny hat that was obviously designed to be worn on their penis, and in that case they are using the clothing article correctly.

Serious question: are penis hats actually a thing?

(on a side note, penis_hat covers both hats on penis and hats shaped like penises, which seems like an odd overlap to me)

I suggest we have an annelid tag, aka worms and leeches and other similar creatures. While commonly thought of as insects or arthropods, they are neither of those, and in fact they lack quite a few of the major features such as complex exoskeletons that make arthropods, well... arthropods. In fact here is an article from Washington State University going into complex detail about how they are not the same, even if they share some qualities.

I'm not entirely sure if this possibly falls within the tag what you see policy, as most common beliefs about annelids when it comes to how they are perceived is that they are usually associated or wrongly considered insects and/or arthropods... but I'm not entirely sure if misinformation about the animals themselves as well as incorrect species assumption applies to this policy.

Thoughts on this?

EDIT:

Also adding to this, since this is also concerning insects (tho this time with actual insects): is it possible we could use abdomen pussy and abdomen penis for certain insect characters in which their genitals lay at the end of their abdomen? They're usually placed under "unusual pussy/unusual penis", but they seem to be common enough for art featuring insects, especially mantids, bees, wasps and ants.

First thought is that this doesn't even belong in this thread, probably make a new thread if you're going to propose a change like this.

Second thought is just...nah...I see worms as insects and leeches as...well...not really important enough to bother classifying (only 28 images on the site feature them). Tagging should be based on common knowledge more often than not, considering it's only a tool to help people find images and they are going to draw on their common knowledge when searching.

actually there are quite a number of posts featuring annelids, a minimum of 254 pictures feature and/or focus on annelid based content (172 worms, 26 leeches, 26 graboids from tremors, 15 earth worms, 5 hyperspace worms, 4 worm infestation, 2 urethra worm, 1 mind worm, 1 butt worm, 1 king worm from adventure time, 1 lex the bookworm)

there are also 154 parasite pictures but i didnt include them in counting, as a lot of them fall into either the above or aren't annelids, such as maggots which are fly larva.

hell, these are just the more common annelid tags that come to mind. there's probably tons more of annelid content if i go searching on here. personally i feel if they have this good chunk of content made about them we should be classifying them under their species tag rather than just insect, but that's just how i feel about it personally, hence why I asked for opinions on it.

apologies if i posted this in the wrong place, i figured this was the right place cause it suggested tags to add, but perhaps I was mistaken, hahaha.

I) 'worm' is a body-type common to many phyla (see list below), so if you meant the subclass oligochaeta (earth worms) I recommend using 'earth_worm' or something similar.

  • Onychophora
  • Annelida
  • Nematoda
  • Nematomorpha
  • Acoelomorpha
  • Chaetognata
  • Nemertea
  • Sipuncula
  • Platyhelminthens
  • Xenoturbellida
  • Priapulida

II) there are some phyla that probably are representative enough to receive their own tags and implications too (e.g. cnidaria, echinodermata), however we even consolidated 'mollusk' well yet, and perhaps would be better to do those changes one step at a time.

Should we make two tags, for searching involving humanoids being either children or cubs?

Specifically: an animal_humanoid, looking like a child, would probably not get tagged cub because they are not feral, semi-anthro, or anthro. They are not exactly "furry"... I propose humanoid_cub for animal humanoids that look like children, not exclusive to being tagged child or et cetera.

Also, a tag for just a humanoid that looks like a child, I propose humanoid_child, again not exclusive to aforementioned but is exclusive to humanoid_cub. This is secondary to my first proposed, I don't see as much use in it.

This is because there are a lot of tags that'd need to be -searched / blacklisted to find the aforementioned. Especially problematic is Pokemon that're tagged humanoids, which will ignore human, anthro, feral, semi-anthro, anthro, ergo specifically excluding them by excluding pokémon. But again, I am more asking for an animal_humanoid tag.

Combine with the idea from forum #234199 "Imply: Human -> Humanoid", and it should apply to humans as well. Definitely cut down on blacklist space.

Why not just use child for humans and humanoids?

Child is a more specific age, cub is less specific. A cub can be baby to child (cub's wiki is generalized, the tag's practice is slightly more accurate), whereas a child is after toddler and stops before teenager. Check the young chart for a more detailed explanation (preteen is aliased to child).

Since we lack a less specific tag for (animal) humanoids, I would think it beneficial to make one. Cub is incredibly helpful for blacklisting, I imagine that the same is true for whatever tag we come up with.

Baby and toddler for 0-2, child for 3-12, teen for 13-19ish.
Cub if it's a 'furry' child. All of this is in the wiki, not sure what's unclear about it.

Edit: Oh, I see. The young wiki entry is messed up. Shame that nobody noticed. And preteen is implicated to young, but also aliased to child. Sheesh.

How should 'riding' a motorcycle be tagged? Those keep getting tagged as riding, but it doesn't seem like a good fit because its mainly for animals, not for vehicles.

There's cycling for bicycles, driving for cars, sailing for boats, etc. But is there anything for motorcycles?
