Topic: "not_furry" tag. who actually needs it? what's the point?

Posted under Tag/Wiki Projects and Questions

Did you try reading the wiki article for not_furry? It explains exactly what the point of it is there. One of the first points is humanoid pairings. Like, goblins and elves. Technically, not furry, but allowed on the site.

Yeah, as Furrin Gok said. There are a few rule 34 type pics which aren't furry, and a few comedy/meme pictures.

Also, although the not_furry tag doesn't influence how we approve images in any way, a lot of irrelevant stuff will end up getting tagged with it before it gets deleted, which is convenient for blacklisting until it does get deleted.

Not_furry can apply to mechanical/robotic characters, such as Mettaton and Jenny_Wakeman.

On that note, images of Sans and Papyrus are drastically undertagged with not_furry.

Which is a happy coincidence for me because I haven't yet added them as an exception to my blacklist. But still worth mentioning if anyone wants to take a look at that.

Mostly handled. Went through the whole animated_skeleton tag, though I left it untagged for creatures that might be considered borderline furry by someone.

It is undertagged, but I tag posts when I see it so users can blacklist not_furry. Which makes sense because who comes to e6 to look at non-furry stuff? Go to paheal or hentai-foundry or wherever these things keep coming from. I strongly dislike seeing not_furry posts, personally. It's like if you go to a car show and every tenth "car" is actually a bicycle, you wouldn't be very happy.
