This passive-aggressiveness taint's the rest of the post because from here on sound like your speaking down to us even if you didn't mean to.
Didn't seem like speaking down, more like pointing out what happened. When a member responds with "make me" and nothing else to a long thread that wants genuine discussion that can very easily be seen as,
• Petty
• Childish
• Etc.
I don't think they meant the comment towards people who genuinely disagreed and gave reasons for it. I think this was just towards the people who clearly didn't give a fuck and wanted to be petty and "funny" about it, which...well. I can't blame the guy for saying something about that. Not one bit.
FA already has filters for both fetishes and content ratings.
This has been talked about to death at this point but, to put it mildly - can confirm two truths about FA for you:
• Rarely do people tag properly which ruins the filter (i see clear NSFW and debatable NSFW in general/SFW areas more times than I can count when browsing)
• Even when people tag right, there's borderline fetish material that skims passed the adult bar (and I'm not just bitching about inflation or other "not-fetish fetishes" with that remark)
This was proven more or less with several posts, though most images were changed to adult a day after I'd pointed them out (yay?) I highly doubt it'll stop the mass majority that just chill in General due to FA having little to no actual control of what's submitted under what tag and users not being able to add tags themselves (I really wish FA just implemented a more updated user interactive filter system, one of my only "large" - and by that I mean prevalent and annoying - complaints...).
I am of the opinion that anyone's issue with unwanted fetish viewings and/or the desire to see more creative content would be handled at least 70% better than what the current system offers if it were updated - but what do I know? I'm just a gal with sharp teeth.
You are correct, most anthro art is SFW.
*types in dog in general only search under SFW*
Search results (1 - 72 of 653783)
*types in dog in mature/adult only search without SFW*
(1 - 72 of 284165)
Hmm...
Well there's definitely more SFW for doggos (roughly 78% more), for example, but not really by a lot in the grand scheme of things since this is only looking up one generic word and as said prior there is adult content in sfw often. In short, this is only one general example of a generic fursona type. I'd like to find a better way to math this throughout the entirety of art submissions as only looking at one thing is very flawed, but I have no idea how to do that with FA's current system.
Anyway, I'm getting carried away with math and am far too off topic. Much like this thread feels, though of no help from me lol.
I guess my point with this post is if the OP gave up responding I think it's time we all went back to our memes and tea. <3
