Pointless Pools

The same user made the equally pointless Voluptuous (pool #2287). Both pools should be killed off.

And he just made Tag Camel toe (pool #2365).

Which definitely demonstrates users somehow find pools easier to handle than tags.

EDIT: new page.

Or that more users need to be educated in use of the "Edit" button and that they can add or remove tags themselves with it.

he just created a spank it NOW pool. still empty.

edit: he also changed a wiki page just so he could ask a question. http://danbooru.donmai.us/wiki/show?title=blackhearted

Pink-Ero Maniacs (pool #2361)

Deleted.

Man or a Mountain? (pool #2205), maybe A taller beauty (pool #1513)

size_difference should be find here since the pool names make it sound like the taller one is somehow huge, when it's really about the relative sizes rather than one being exceptionally large. The one about women might be useful if properly defined though, since it's far less common than the man being bigger. I didn't delete that one yet.

Spank it NOW (pool #2363)

Deleted.

Ragequit (pool #1519)
It's been brought up before and isn't really pointless, but it's one that seems tag worthy.

Let's make a separate thread to choose a tag then.

Touhou - Ex Gathering (pool #1882), Touhou - Stages Gathering (pool #2353)
Not necessarily pointless, but they're redundant pools that should be merged. There's really no need for two.

Ehhh... probably not although if merged they'd have to have a new description. Three different ex bosses might not be from the same stage or even the same game.

evazion said: Vocaloid - Miku Panty Close-ups (pool #1676)

I thought it was originally for that series of pictures by eto. I guess it got broader... eh deleted.

Also deleted the one user's crap pools.

I know some people have thought "Edit" was for editing comments. Maybe it needs to be changed to "Edit Tags"?

Sounds good. That would help minimize comments asking for x tag to be added and bad pools like Arbosia's from turning up.

Sounds reasonable to me as well. More then a few times now I have "fixed" tag issues because someone has either posted about a tag problem and not edited it themselves or created a pool instead of adding a tag, like the "Needs Cameltoe tag" pool.

pool #2193 Touhou - Corrupted by Evil. Could find all of those, assuming they are tagged correctly, by searching for the character name + dark persona tag.

Seems to be an established Pixiv meme project however, so I think it's fine.

It is exactly that. See here:

Another dumb pool by Arbosia.
pool #2286

pool #2379- My Touhou can't possibly be this Cute!
= equal to tag combination touhou can't_be_this_cute

Trapfest (pool #2376)
Nothing but trap *boys and trap crossover.

Your Curtain Doesn't Match Your Carpet (pool #1974)
Should honestly be a tag. Something like mismatched pubic hair maybe.

I don't think this one is necessary at all, because that would be the general case, as shown (I believe) by the colored pubic hair pool made prior to this one. The latter should be the actual tag.

EDIT: pool #2344 - Do not cry!, already covered by pool #1446, and empty.

pool #2257 - Capitalism, Ho
Empty, none of the posts survived mod approval.

Pools that are empty because of posts that didn't make it through the mod queue are not to be deleted. The pool is valid, but the posts isn't, I think the logic goes.

Captialism, Ho was redundant before the posts were deleted so it's fine to delete.

I interpret exceptions applying to pools with posts containing a clear sequential order, not for themed pools.

pool #2382

The character's name and the animalization tag come into effect here. The pool is pointless since we have those tags.
