Interesting. Wasn't the server burden only rising, not abating?

• Loli posts are now hidden.

Now people REALLY need to make sure they tag loli correctly. I think this move makes it perfectly clear what the official definition of loli is on danbooru, so please do not tag (and thus hide) safe images as loli, everyone. Thankfully it's not as common as it used to be, but it still happens/.

Wow, I was wondering why I was suddenly getting explicit images... Lot's of safe/questionable stuff to remove the explicit rating from. And a bunch of loli pictures to tag.

You broke something when searching for "rating:?". No list of pages and only a link to the very last page.

This is probably just the caching. It'll take a few days to expire.

It's been okay recently. I also plan on migrating servers again sometime in the next two weeks.

Yes, the loli tag right now needs to be cleaned up. Worksafe images should not be considered loli. Teenagers are not loli. Breasts and pubic hair, unless they look like toddlers, are not a loli.

Argh,i believed that i had an account privileged

So, what is the point of having a privileged account now unless you absolutely need to use more than two tags often?

You can't see the loli tag either, I think...

I just typed "loli" in search and I can still see pics and I'm a normal member.

and also you cannot upload more than 16 pics by days

And they have to be moderator-approved. But yes, this way the site turns more into the classic danbooru from before it went down.

Isn't that how it was before? I could only upload 16 posts per day.

What he means is that if you have a privileged account you can upload all the pics you want without limit.

Oh ok. I don't see how that means much because the only people that I think will want to seriously flood will be new users that have brought lots of stuff this site doesn't have yet but I'm not very familiar yet with how this community works.

albert, jxh2154, Mug-G, and a few of other older users flood on a daily basis but you don't really notice with all the other uploads make them look more spaced out than they are.

What is the definition of "hidden"? And what reasons were behind this decision, if I may ask?

I believe that it is as the images explicit before them are blacklisted one cannot see them without privileged account

Meaning you need a privileged account. The reason is the same reason 4chan bans it: it scares away advertisers.

So, shall we summarize what the benefits of a privileged account are now? From what I have seen, it is:

1. Being able to use more than two tags in search.
2. Not having to go through the trouble of moderator approval
3. Having no uploads per day limit
4. Being able to see the loli stuff that isn't labeled as safe

It looks like the only people now that really benefit from having a privileged account are power users and lolicons. This privileged account system now looks more like a tease than a goal.
