Behind every Blacklisted Tag there is a story of Discovery
Feb 26th:A new bill in Arizona is making its way through the Senate that would force sites like e621 to implement mandatory age verification for all users—or face potential lawsuits. This system would require third-party vendors to verify every user’s age through a government database. Not only is this a massive violation of privacy, but it also introduces serious risks, including identity theft through phishing schemes and other malicious methods. Worse still, we would have no control over ensuring that user data is permanently deleted after verification.
Since e621 operates out of Arizona, this law would almost certainly impact us if it passes. If you want to help ensure that we can continue serving you without being forced to collect personal information, we urge you to contact Arizona’s senators and ask them to vote NO on this bill.
Please help spread the word about this issue and encourage others to take action.
Further information on the bill itself can be found at the Free Speech Coalition: https://action.freespeechcoalition.com/bill/arizona-hb-2112/

MemberI mean, when you come across a post that somehow manages to set off nearly your entire blacklist at once, it's difficult not to disable it out of sheer morbid curiosity.

Membercan relate

MemberIs it weird to have the female tag blacklisted as a gay man?
Mr Nectarine
Membernot rly. You blacklist literally everything but "female" and suddenly ur entire feed is full of women so i think its fair if its blacklisted.

MemberYou would be shocked to find out that it's not that bad. The only thing that I have to deal with is new post not being tagged with woman/female and other tags that is based on that gender.
Edit: My bad, didn't read that correctly haha.

Memberit's not practical, because woman on the background will hide your gay stuff, you should use "Female -male/male" instead
Drayla
MemberHow I felt after finding out roblox was a tag
jeffjeff
MemberI simply blacklist rating:safe, rating:questionable and rating:explicit
zombieseatflesh7
MemberIt might be smarter to blacklist "male/female" and "solo female" and maybe even "pussy", otherwise you will block a lot of male focused posts that just have a woman in the corner or something.

MemberNah I do it too I noticed basically every search was -female
asdf122
MemberI wish ~- would work. Currently, that syntax is ignored when used.
Let's say I wanted to see posts either with males only, or if there are female characters, to include male/male somewhere in the post. I would be able to do that with:
"~-female ~male/male male"

MemberI have to check which tags are specifically blacklisted... though some of mine are for artists and individual posts so... they can't all go off at once.
VibrantLordiction
MemberNot necessarily, it makes sense a gay man wouldn't want to see female porn, but it's a very inefficient and clumsy way to go about it.
Using such a broad, blunt blacklist like 'female' excludes tons of male-focused posts which just have, like, a female background character or something.
Would be much better to blacklist more specific tags, or combinations of tags (you can do that, if you didn't know,) but it's your list I guess.

MemberYou are insane. No way you don't dislike seeing some posts. Viewing e621 raw is unhinged, there are some really messed up stuff here

MemberWho else got their ex’s sona blacklisted? I can’t be the only one who doesn’t wanna see that

Membermy blacklist is like 3 times as big
canabananalism
Memberwhen you see a tag for an artist with artstyle you fw so you click on the tag to see more and there are only 6 posts that don't break your blacklist
SweetScolipede
MemberI blacklisted mlp and sonic, so it's always a surprise when i search something and SOMEHOW theres a sonic or mlp related post blacklisted. Like, what are you doing here????

Member7 tag dan strikes when least expected
TaZz Yoke
MemberYou just gotta move things around a 'lil bit, utilising the blacklist inverts things and ~- isn't necessary
Adding this line to your blacklist does exactly what you need:
In my case, I blacklist "male -female -rating:s" which gets 99.9% of the job done, but I add a few -[tag]s to this line for any edge cases. Some of my other blacklist lines are stupid bonkers complicated, its like a little puzzle to do when I'm bored lol
asdf122
MemberOh, that's super useful. Thank you
One small issue I see though is that the blacklist will always re-enable everytime you refresh/go to another page, which would make it difficult if I want multiple tabs that use very different search terms(including some that conflict with the initial blacklist). Besides that, this is a pretty cool way to search for things.
TaZz Yoke
MemberYeah, just a quirk with the site. You can kinda get around it, 'Disable all' applies to all tabs, but mildly annoying it doesn't for individual blacklists, so look at the blacklist line count and if there's too much of one thing just -[tag] in your search. goofy ah ancient php momento
Nise86
MemberSet it to the max 250 posts/page and refresh. How high is that count now?
orphan crippler
MemberNot weird, you are just lacking a combination to make it work better, I'm straight so I blacklisted the combination "male -female -rating:safe" and it works wonders, blacklisting female as a whole makes it impossible for you to find those images where the man is the focus and looks hot as fuck.
Heck, checking my blacklist I realized it is "male -female -rating:safe -ambiguous_gender" because there are times when even tho the partner is not explicitly male or female you know that ass is meant to be female

MemberOh hey, a contender for my profile picture.
The Mechaneer
MemberI used to do it back when I was a lurker.
I had to make an account in order the see what I wanted, and figured I might as well make a blacklist while I'm at it.
pizzataph
Memberdunno... maybe i'm a little crazy but i don't mind some weird messed up stuff now again. not like i'm getting off to it but art's interesting sometimes. it's why i (against my better judgment) haven't blacklisted e254e.
...maybe you have a point though
isaac63
Memberthe only thing on my blacklist is gore and even then i usually have it disabled

MemberDon't worry about it, I do the exact same thing as a gay dude too. It's just the equivalent of a straight guy blacklisting the Male/male Tag.
