How to hide explicit images

Posted under Bugs & Features

Well there is a very useful feature in this site where one can filter particular tag combos and see them only when he/she wants. I wonder if there is a way so that I can hide images rated explicit by default and see them only if I wanted?

Unless you want to blacklist it or go the SafeBooru route (SafeBooru automatically locks out anything rated Q and E), rating:s.

No, he meant "-rating:s". In the blacklist, you are specifying what you don't want to see. Adding "-rating:s" means "hide everything that is not rated Safe". It's a kind of double negative, so it's easy to get wrong.

Edit: If OP still wants to see Questionable images, which seems to be the case, then adding "rating:e", without the minus sign, would be the right thing to do.

Gotta say I love the minus tags. They remind me of the ! when working with booleans in programming. (Sorry about the offtopic.)

Could this be stickied? It seems like a lot of people have been asking stuff like this lately. Proves people really look at this site "for the articles".

Yeah, my bad. I was kinda distracted when I posted that; posting while distracted is never a good idea.

I believe most of this is mentioned in various help pages on the wiki, but I suppose we could use a page that gives a quick, basic overview of such things.

For some reason I thought OP wanted to hide questionable posts too, but on second reading, yeah, "rating:e" would be appear to be correct.

Also note that using Safebooru might not be ideal here either, since it does hide quesitonable posts along with explicit posts.

Blacklists are explained on the wiki, but I don't believe Safebooru is mentioned anywhere.

Thank you all for your helpful comments. That solved my problem. :)

P.s. I have added both "rating:q" and "rating:e" in my blacklist. This way danbooru start as safebooru for me and I can see q or e rated images whenever I want it. ^^
