Pointless Pools

How about if the pool is repurposed to something like "Homura uses her powers for her own benefit instead of fighting," because there's a niche there that won't be served by pool #2059.

That seems like a pool idea that can be applied to characters using their powers for their own benefit or in unusual ways.

Could call it "Power Abuse"
discription: When a character uses their powers for personal gain or to troll/pick on someone who doesn't deserve it.
Examples:
Time stopping to do perverted/sexual things to someone
duplicating/creating items/weapons from nothing to sell for money.

You get the idea.

that work? probably overlap a with pool #1970 God Damn It, Yukari!

Well, in theory, a defense could be that since Yukari's power can be used in a number of highly unusual ways, its a difficult concept to tag, and thus worth pooling.

Why does she get her own pool? Well, because thats how it was made.

Part of the problem is that people don't tend to realize that you can combine a tag search with a pool.

Thinking about it, we could expand god dammit yukari to all characters abusing their powers and make it clear in the discription that you can search a pool for a character by doing the pool number and character name.

same could be said of every character in existence really. all about how flexible of an explanation the artist can come up with to explain why something is possible.

I just said that that was a theoretical defense.

I personally don't care that much.

Though very few characters have an ability as...unique as Yukari's, and get a load of fanart of them abusing it. And Homura is, in fact, one of those characters.

Edit: Though I'd like to see evidence that this isn't just a pool:1399 yakumo_yukari search. (that being the "Thinking with Portals" pool)

think of what i said as a hypothetical responce to said theoretical defense.
back to the main discussion

well simply doing pool:1970 -gap (and a few minutes tagging gap) did result in about 1 page
