Reason: When the wide_hipped_* tags came up , I voiced the concern that users might get the idea to create more weird combination tags. I didn’t expect to be proven right this quickly.
One user managed to add these tags to several thousand posts (Already talked to them and they at least stopped).
Each of these tags can be better covered by tagging hourglass_figure and gender/form separately. The small use for group pictures where only specific characters have this figure is basically nullified by the tag bloat and encouragement to create more of these combination tags.
Also, just look at them! I didn’t expect an abomination like hourglass_figured_* could exist and I jokingly came up with “big_breasted_gynomorph” in the wide_hipped_* discussion.
