There needs to be a filter
10 years ago
I am serious. I haven't used the search function on this site in a long time, and just from trying to browse for Greninja pictures I was reminded why I don't. There is way too much vore of this character, and it's completely unavoidable for me when trying to find pictures that would actually catch my interest.
Seriously, I hate seeing vore. I don't want to be forced to see that when I'm scrolling along like that. And there's nothing I can do to really work around it on the site either if I want to look up specific characters or Pokemon. This is especially a problem when I'm a Raichu, and if I want to find more Raichu art, I'll have to sift through vore of that, too. x-x
This makes it really hard for me to find new artists on here I might be interested in watching, too. Because unless somebody introduces me to their work or I see it elsewhere, I won't know who they are. Now I get it, people are really bad at tagging their work, so maybe it'd be hard to implement some sort of filter system, but still. I'm sure other people have felt this same way for other fetishes they don't like, too. Or things they find disturbing or unsettling. But maybe those people just do what I do and ignore using the search function.
Sorry if nobody wants to hear this, but I just needed to get it off my chest. I thought I'd find some pictures I'd like that aren't elsewhere yet, and instead I got 3 or 4 pages in and half of it was just vore, which I hate, before I gave up.

FA+





















But we're in the same boat, my favourite Pokemon are all typically caught in that trap of "disgusting fetish" art on here when I've searched. It's very frustrating and I'm pleasantly surprised to see people agree with me, I thought for sure I'd just hear people tell me "stop whining and go somewhere else if you don't like it" instead.
The only feature it boasts that makes it useful is the blacklist, as far as I can see. But I think what he's going for is a place to comment where the artist/poster is more likely to see the image, and he did say he wants to find new artists not new images, and so if he wants to follow the artists easier then FA is a much better idea so he can watch them and get updated as to when they post.
tl:dr
FA would be preferable because he wants to follow the artists and not just find images.
Though on the bright side I managed to find an auction to bid on before I gave up searching, so not a complete wash.
For example: "greninja paws -vore -scat" (searches for: greninja, paws and avoids the vore and scat tags).
Unless they changed the search engine... I remember it was possible to do this at some point. :3
But I get what you mean... It's frustrating to look for a particular character and then you're not only being bombarded with stuff you don't want to see but it's like the thing you're looking for doesn't even exist in the first place.
That being said, I'm not a huge fan of vore either, I like some aspects of it but I'm more of a macro and paw guy. ^^;
I'm not big for macro, however I am okay with it when it's just something simple or clean, like showing off their feet and not stepping on people or other things. But obviously judging from my profile, feet are very much appreciated. So we can also agree on that.
