No bad anatomy.

Borderline Content
The following things are not strictly against the rules, but they have a much higher chance of being deleted than normal. Uploaders should be careful about uploading these things, and approvers should be careful about approving them.

Extreme fetish content. This includes extreme guro, scat, bestiality, vore, "hyper" fetishism (monstrously large body parts), diaper fetishism, and other extreme or unusual fetishes.

Fair enough I suppose, except for the fact that it's rather unreasonable to expect people to remember to manually check *every* Pixiv upload they make if the Twitter had been already uploaded, especially from artists for whom such duplicates are a very rare occurrence, and by proxy to count rejected uploads involving such duplication as harshly as normal rejected uploads. I didn't even know that "pixel-perfect duplicate" was even a thing before this.

Luckily whenever you upload something Danbooru automatically checks for similar images and lists them below the image on the upload page. We shouldn't have to have tons of duplicates active just because people cannot be bothered to look there.

Tip: if the resolution is the same and the filesize is nearly identical, good chance it's a duplicate.

Yeah, well, the problem is that when one's experience is that all such similar images were significantly different in file size and/or resolution, and especially when they don't even know that it's possible for the Twitter and Pixiv versions to be practically identical, it's very easy for one to fall into the habit of tuning that part entirely if the similarity ratio isn't 100% (i.e. someone had already beaten you to uploading this particular image) and just skip to filling out the tags and what not.

Honestly, there should be a check for pixel-perfect duplicates during the uploading process that throws up a very attention-grabbing warning/notice, so that any such cases are caught before someone unknowingly uploads one.
