Continuing the search for images that need to have tags fixed up we have ||https://derpibooru.org/images/3026906||, which involves Sci-Twi and Sunset kissing as they are being tentacled. If it were nonconsensual, Sci-Twi wouldn’t kiss Sunset. And since Sunset is more into it while Sci-Twi is showing more dubious consent, then (dubious)consentacles would actually apply on this.
||https://derpibooru.org/search?q=comic%3Atactile+response%2C+rape|| Judging from Fluttershy’s thoughts and the hearts as she is being touched, she is more uncertain how to react to the situation she’s in, not necessarily noncon. I think that what Delphince said in the comments explains it the best on how Fluttershy is only embarrassed about being touched but also likes it in a way.

You cannot apply expectations to what a character would or wouldn’t do in a situation.
The first image literally says in its description, written by the artist, what the intent of the image is.
I have pointed out your obliviousness before, and tried not to assume you’re posting in bad faith. With each post, that assumption seems more wrong.

None of the posts I made are of bad faith though. It’s more on how these images shouldn’t really be blacklisted by those who filter the grimdark tag. Seems rather butthurt to have the images I mentioned be spoilered or worse, hidden away. It can be a huge problem to those who want to see porn and those who don’t want to see porn.
For those who do have grimdark spoilered or hidden, they do this to not see dark topics or gory stuff, but don’t know there are porn images that have been blocked too; and when they do find these images being under the grimdark tag, they’ll be left questioning everything why some porn they have never seen has been blacklisted.
For those who just wanna see the more dark and edgy images, they’ll run into mostly porn with nothing even suggesting it should be under the same umbrella as violence and eldritch abominations. For their case, it’s no real issue as they can still search for grimdark content as they can have the search syntax be grimdark, -suggestive, -questionable, -explicit, but they would also still question why they encountered porn in the first place.
Now for those who hate the art and want to add kink-shaming and personal opinion tags for the giggles, is sensitive to certain art, or takes a character’s expression or dialogue out of context can easily click the hide button so they won’t have to run into said image they don’t again instead of adding tags that they don’t realize people filter and won’t be able to see. That way, it can still be viewed by those who filter grimdark.
Now back to that image you claimed you know what the artist’s intent is, if we look at the original source before it was posted to Derpibooru, there is nothing to indicate it being nonconsensual at all. It is okay to make a mistake in the tags when you upload a picture, nothing to really for the artist or original uploader to whine about and just roll along with it and pretend their mistake doesn’t exist. I’m not saying any of this out of meanness in any way. I’m just saying accidents happen and it’s okay to ask for help if you make a mistake.

A bunch of staff spent a lot of time looking at every image you’ve linked in your earlier posts. For the minute exception of one or two images depicting situations afterwards (which have been fixed), each and every image was correctly tagged for “rape”. Your ‘reports’ are unfounded.
You must understand that Derpibooru does not follow and will not adopt your personal standard of what does and doesn’t get tagged “rape”. Our standard is, and continues to be, based on consent alone. That is not going to change, you could as well be demanding us to delete every image that features cosplayers, or every official MLP media screenshot that doesn’t show any characters.
Please go away, and take your gatekeeping with you. Please realise that by catching onto every available straw of “look $The_VICTIM is actually enjoying it!” or “$THE_VICTIM actually wants this!”, you are a hair’s width away from belittling a real person’s real traumatic experience because of what they happened to be wearing at the time or some other shit. Your inability to accept anything but the narrowest of circumstances as warranting the tag “rape” is 100% a you-problem.
@Background Pony #623B
As I explained earlier, users can use complex filters if they specifically want to see “rape” images but not any other “grimdark” content. Their convenience in accessing all possible porn is not going to take priority over something as major as content rating tags.

You need to stop, this is your first and final warning.

Do not continue arguing what our tagging standard for “rape” is, or should be, and do not call out images for being tagged “rape”. Do not continue arguing that “rape” should not imply “grimdark”. You are not helping; you are self-fellating, and wasting precious volunteer time, and hurting real victims of real events.

I miss the show so much
In the last 12 hours or so I’ve come across three strange tags I cannot decide what they stand for (and if they should be deleted), so I’m asking here if anyone knows. They are:
Are these real things, or typos/keyboard smashing?

It’s a Chinese meme related to chickens, which might explain some of the other tags on those images (most of which I’ve previously deleted). I’m in PMs with the person who appears to be the artist to see if there’s some way to make their tagging more in line with this site’s practices.

鸡你太美 looks like the same thing (and is what turned up when searching on Google - apparently, it’s a song)
jntm appears to be the roman letter acronym for the same (“鸡你太美, jī nĭ tài měi” turns up in those searches)
cxk seems to be an abbreviation/hashtag for Cai Xukun (which is tagged, too: cai xukun), the singer of the aforementioned song
I can’t find a connection or meaning for nimb

The 3 images tagged nimb are angelic - maybe it’s a typo of nimbus, a circle behind a character’s head/a style of angel’s halo? (…which those 3 images don’t have ¯\_(ツ)_/¯)

jntm和cxk它们不是同一个意思,虽然cxk在侠义上是指jntm,但是cxk在广义上指的是蔡徐坤这位明星
JNTM and CXK do not mean the same thing, although CXK refers to JNTM in the chivalrous sense, but CXK refers to the star Cai Xukun in a broad sense

我不知道mimb的意思,但是我知道jntm和cxk的意思,jntm指’鸡你太美’,cxk指’蔡徐坤’,他们都来自中文的拼音首字母。蔡徐坤在中文里的拼音首字母是’cxk’,‘jntm’同理。你可以在中国的网站里比如必应中国版和哔哩哔哩等中国的平台搜索到他们。
I don’t know what mimb means, but I do know the meaning of jntm and cxk, jntm means ‘鸡你太美’ and cxk means ‘蔡徐坤’, both of which come from the pinyin initials of Chinese. Cai Xukun’s pinyin initials in Chinese are ‘CXK’, and the same is true for ‘JNTM’.You can search for them on Chinese websites such as Bing China and Bilibili.

No way that I know of to search for presence of non-latin characters while latin characters are also present in a generic way.
You could construct a search for every tag without a latin character at a certain position, such as neither the first nor second characters.
You can search for all OCs without latin characters, if that’s of interest.
Similarly, there are quite a few tags without vowels…some stuff that’s hard to tell at a glance whether they are anything or not.

I just clicked few random tags on the last page and they were in fact describing facts about the image, e.g., an emoji, a greek letter, and a word in cyrillic were present in the image. Some letters-and-numbers tag was apparently denoting the model of a ponified plane. So these tags are very niche, but not useless.
