Pointless Pools

pool #890 - none of the posts within were approved, and they have already been appealed in forum #24723 to no avail.

Deleted posts still exist, technically, so I see no reason that we should throw away information about them. We don't clear deleted posts of tags either.

Because that has a use, though. If you can't access the deleted images from the pool, what is the empty pool doing?

In the case that they are undeleted later, we'll still have the information about them. Pools containing only deleted posts should be hidden from the index, just as tags containing only deleted posts have a tag count of 0.

Doing what pools do. Run a search on "pool:XXX status:deleted", click one of the posts, and you can still navigate around.

pool #913 - "Girls Lifting Up Breasts"

Covered by the breast_lift tag.

pool #926 - "ernest"
Empty pool by new account.

pool #939
Empty pool, and no title either.

pool #947 "Futa"

pool #952 - "Teething into your soul."

----
A note that I've checked up to this point.

I think pool #951 can be deleted now, since it looks like the dummy option discussed in forum #25781 was implemented.

pool #1011 List of traps

trap tag.

How is http://danbooru.donmai.us/pool/show/208 any different from searching

-fishnets -thighhighs -pantyhose bunny_girl

except there's two or three bunny_girls that aren't tagged properly?

a three negation search is hardly convenient.

pool #1025 - "Futanari with a penis, testicles, and a pussy; clitoris not required, but preferred."

There are tags for these, plus it looks like an /r/.

Thats totally an /r/.

/r/'s go...not on this site.

I still say pool #737 is a personal repository pool for the user who created it.

It's not necessarily pointless, though. It represents information that can't be retrieved in any other way.

It would be nice if there was a way people could make "personal" pools for their own use, that wouldn't show up in the master public pool list.

Maybe limit it to...five? Per user? Just throwing the concept out there

Private pool #544 ("Making Love"). It's just a collection of CountPacula's favorite images of couples (be it explicit sex or holding hands).
