This booru needs a vent thread, let me start off by saying fuck anthros.

Yeah, well, the surprisingly huge portion of images here are anthro, but at least you can easily filter them out. I don’t like how some people don’t tag them, though.

Personal pet peeve of mine is when people don’t properly tag NSFW stuff. I’ve seen full frontal nudity with graphic genitalia tagged as simply “questionable” or worse merely “suggestive.”

Oh yeah, that one always gets me.
Another pet peeve is ghost signatures - not seeing them on other people’s stuff, but when I fail to catch them myself on my own generations and accidentally upload something without removing them.

yeah, tagging really is something so many people here neglect horribly.
someone failing to tag female or pony on their images is a daily fucking occurrence.
6684 of the 62991 images on here tagged with female had it added by me.
in terms of form, i see far more pics missing the pony tag than ones missing the anthro one. one might suppose maybe other people just got to them first, but nope. pony has 129 pages of it being added, anthro only has 37.
i fucking hate the ‘woe is me, i had to see an image that isn’t something i like :( :( :(’ shit here that seems to only come up with certain things.
i wouldn’t really care if it was merely driven by aesthetic preferences, but so many of those people sure don’t act like it is.

My bad lmao
@Background Pony #E35B
Yeah fuck that posercore shit, pony bros on top forever and ever.
It definitely has nothing to do with anything, and I’m not pointing an hoof but this site does not have any real protections to stop botting so the trending page is meaningless. If I look through the faves on top half of the people have like ten thousand faves with literally zero other activity. Purely hypothetical theoretical speculation though.

It’s frustrating that some of my best results come from my artists based loras. They just look so good but are just too similar in style to post respectfully.

Depending on what you are using, try just removing the LORA and running the same prompt/settings/workflow. Especially if you’re using Civitai, sometimes the LORA is not contributing much. Or, depending on the seed, the process gets fixated on “that look” whether the LORA is there or not.

Nah i train all of my own stuff but for the checkpoints that i dont have the know how or resources to train.
The reason why its such a pain is that to get a clean and consistent style on SDXL architecture is not so easy unless you train it, and on top of that all current SDXL derivatives have heavy anthro bias. So if you train one clean feral pony dataset you pull much better concepts even if they aren’t in your dataset.
The moment you try to mix or add stuff to obfuscate the styles. You overlap conflicting things and everything starts to turn into mush. That’s why pony diffusion really sucks a certain concepts/details because its been mushed.

My vent: annoying people that don’t know how to use the philomena filter to hide the tag that this people doesn’t like and downvote your images for it.
You stay 2 days planning an comic idea, make the prompts, organize the images, make correction edits, and in the end this person uses 5 seconds of the life to do the downvote spam.
That kind of thing is something that really makes me sad.
I wanted to say that I’m not really serious about the anthro hate stuff. It’s just that my whole life I’ve been filled with this damn hatred, and I hate that I sometimes let it out on people that don’t deserve it. It’s wrong to try to control what other people like. If it makes you happy, then that is entirely ok. I don’t really hate any of you guys, and I wanted to say that I’m sorry.
@JasminDreasond
I like to think that the haters empower you by giving you attention in the first place. You live rent free in their head haha.

that’s nice to hear. honestly, i had some trouble telling if you were serious about that stuff and it kind of rubbed me the wrong way, but it’s good to know you don’t intend anything mean
@Bendy and Boney
I love the work you’ve done with LoRAs and stuff. They really helped me through the first two acts of my AI journey and gave me reason to keep going. It just seems that anymore I just make bad emotional decision after bad emotional decision and I’m tired of being a slave to my genetics and these stupid thought forms on the mental plane that recursively loop back into themselves in a cycle of hatred and evil.

i’m glad you enjoyed using my loras. it always makes me happy to see people using them and makes me feel like i’ve helped people out, even if it’s with a minor issue.
i deal with my own share of mental problems, so i can relate to what you’re feeling (at least i think i can)
part of me wants to give you advice, but i don’t feel i’m all that good at giving it, so i’ll just settle for saying that even though i don’t know you or anything, i hope the best for you.
