  • Unfortunately guys, the author stated that the penis is actually a strap-on and not a dickgirl.

    That may be, but here at e621, we tag by what we see, and not by the source.

    But if you watch closely enough you can see line of strapon and balls won't swing like they should.

    So if the author draws a picture of a character and states is a herm but the view of the vagina is obstructed (or hard to see, like the strapon in this image) you'll tag it as a dickgirl? That does not make any kind of sense. I'm sorry but you can't change the author's creation because you don't like it.

    What if picture had other character only partly visible, but because artist stated it was male it would be tagged as gay, making it blacklisted for tons of people who may have liked it? That's why ambiguous_gender tag is amazing when with most cases you can fill the gap yourself to your liking.
    Of course you can't change what has been created, but "tag what you see" makes blacklist and search work much much better and streamlines how to tag shit as some images are simply found with zero context so it's impossible to know is character a herm or dickgirl as there's no info to be found. Tagging character, author and giving source gives more info what image is supposed to be. e621 should be threaded as gallery instead of artists personal page meaning if you found image on your hard drive which had herm with no vagina visible, you would tag it as dickgirl if you didn't remember the source.

    It has nothing to do with changing an image to your liking. The rule of thumb here is tag what you see, and not so much what you know. Being an individual who hasnt seen the artists description of this image, at first sight I actually thought that was a dickgirl, therefore I would have tagged the image as such, based on what I saw.

    I had no desire to change the image for my own purposes or anything like you're claiming people are doing mentally. But if I had the strapon tag blocked or lesbian tag blocked I'd have miss out on some nice ass jiggle.

    Although what I see now has changed due to some select comments made by people who look a bit harder than I have, but still, if I see something else, I would just change the tags appropriately.

    Why did you interpret that? if you follow the thread, I stated that it was unfortunately a strapon and not a dickgirl, and then Taven stated that "we don't tag by the source, we tag by what we see" meaning that even if the source is there in the post, that does not matter and should stay a dickgirl. I never said that TWYS is wrong in any kind of way, I just said what the post was.

    I know, I never criticized you. I only criticized Taven's way of seeing how tags work.

  • Sorry for double-posting, I just needed to clear things out.

    Also, without TWYS there would be a HUGE void in this page, with everyone needing to search every single image to get information. I repeat, I never once said TWYS is wrong, I only commented, never made a critic to anyone or anything, except Taven's way of seeing tags. Even if he was trying to explain what you are trying to explain, his comment was vastly unnecessary.

    Even if you say so, looking back at your first comments makes it clear you were arguing against TWYS. I don't beleive at all that was just a miswording.
    And then there's the fact that you were the one to change the tags from what they should have been using TWYS.
    And now you're trying to say sorry, but instead you're just blaming the whole thing on Taven, so that's a pretty crap sorry.

    I guess so long as you've learnt from this then it's fine.

  • except this is still tagged dickgirl and I and at least 50% of the rest of the people who come here, read the comments, look closer at the image, still see the outlines of actual green panties over top of whatever kind of plant-skin that is supposed to be. See, this is one of those situations where Zyurat is half right. What he/(she?) is trying to say is that the image looks like a strapon, the artist confirmed its a strapon, and yet its still tagged dickgirl. I personally am going to change it because I SEE a strapon. That thing down south doesnt look anything like an actual penis. it looks like something Id find in the bargain bin of an adult novelty store because it was too green for regular sale.

    Im also going to change it because we happen to have an admin here (notmenotyou) confirming it

    It's a dildo, even if you have to look twice to see it.

    Edit: and I apologize about this issue im having with the spaces in my comments, Im not sure why it does this, but ive tried this on multiple computers, sent emails to the site admins, and still not sure why it does this.

    That is a glitch, the spaces get removed sometimes, nobody knows why and our devs can't find a reason, however don't worry about that, if you reload it looks fine, it is literally only the person posting the comment at the moment of posting that sees it fucked up.

    Dude, it's happening to me too. It only happens with punctuation markers though, like periods and commas. Don't know why it does it and it doesn't look comforting that this comment is rather old either.
    But at least it's not my computer, I suppose.
