Clearer definition of "so_moe_i'm_gonna_die!" tag

Posted under Tags

The so_moe_i'm_gonna_die! tag might need a clearer definition and a bit of cleanup. It seems to me that some are adding the tag despite there being no indication of "severe mental shock, injury (or even death)" in the pictures: see post #2636079, post #2661844 and post #2670231.

Perhaps a condition could be added that there is some form of detrimental damage actually shown? Like moe doing actual damage, rather than simply character reactions to cute stuff, which I believe is not what the tag is about. I believe the point of the tag is an overreaction to moe, where one can even get hurt or die. Basically, it's so cute that it actually hurts.

Hmm, I think it's pretty clear already though. Looks like just mistagging to me.

Same here.
If it continues, then a DMail can be sent to those users. If they still continue, then a mod/admin should look into the case.

The definition in the wiki already says it needs visible damage like nosebleeds or an apparent heart attack to qualify... so I don't see a need to add extra bits to the wiki. Just removing the posts which don't qualify should be enough.
