I feel safebooru could have more blacklisted tags by default, such as guro.

+1 to that suggestion, although that should probably be hashed out in a separate topic.

In response to asd57, ratings have been discussed multiple times (topic #12067, topic #5435, topic #3626, topic #2379, topic #349).

Regardless, if it was ever decided by consensus to add a "super safe" rating and/or tag, the amount of post gardening that would require would make the Breast Reformation (topic #12825) look like a cakewalk.

can we please have customizable page navigation, including being able to save pics and go back to serch results with one hand in a way that you would only need to move fingers? for example< let the back key be Q and save key - Z for example. then i could use the entire website with 1 hand at all times, very conviniently

There are keyboard shortcuts already, and most are left-handed. Saving a post can be done with F to fav it or G to favgroup it, and you can go forward and back with A and D. A shortcut to go back to the search results could be useful, but I'm not sure what key it should be. There are only so many keys you can use that are in reach of one hand, and a lot are already taken.

I'm one of those cheapskates who complained about the two tags. I think that you definitely shouldn't increase it past three if you want to sell upgrades. Maybe only allow two normal tags and an ordering or rating tag.

Totally agree with this. In my case, I responded to the survey after only lurking a short while and only sometime after did I learn about upgraded accounts. Now that I know, I'm absolutely going to purchase an upgrade to support the site. The increases are very substantial for a small one time fee. Plus I'm sure all this bandwidth and storage isn't cheap.

Well it's like the engine-room of a great liner, so long as the ship sails smoothly most people aren't going to interfere.

I also think many users don't pay attention to the forums in general (pure conjecture though), as the priority is on the pictures. Or that in terms of changes to the website, that's where many things get suggested (leading to imbalance of presumed power with people who normally browse the forums?).

Well, there's nothing stopping any member from these forums, and I speak as one who doesn't contribute much to discussions: they are not privileged, nor --- certainly compared to a number of other forums and modboxes I've been --- at all hostile in tone.

Problems with participatory democracy no. 1014: There's no point in inviting people if they wave away the free opportunity like a poisoned chalice.

One question that could have been asked, and should be asked next time there is a survey is, "What (encouraged/would encourage) you to promote your account level?". That way, the incentives could be tweaked to encourage more user activity from the base.

I bet there's a lot of people who'd pay through the nose to get to skip the mod queue.

But it's a terrible idea.

Oh, totally missed this survey. I would have chimed in, and said the lack of approvers that like things other than loli and furry to have more variety of posts approved. Other than that, I think the site features have improved. Maybe a grey skin coz it's easier on the eyes than all the white.

I don't really get your sentence, but furry is fairly well established here.
And albert recruited a whole bunch of new Janitors recently, so I hope that this "lack" is now stuffed^^.
