why are these 2 not getting approved? they have a high score and a solid number of tags. is it too furry? although i see worse things... or is it maybe from the rape tag?
You appealed the first post only 13 hours before you asked this and only 5 approvers looked at it. There's still over two days left before it gets auto-deleted. Be patient. And you didn't even appeal the second post.
As Nacha explained earlier, proper tagging only has a small influence on whether a post gets approved, and that's only because a small number of approvers think it's important for some reason. Ideally, the expectation of proper tagging would be completely separate from considering whether a post belongs on Danbooru. You should still tag your uploads properly, but you shouldn't expect your posts to be approved just because your tagging was thorough.
Your appeal reason should be about why you think the post is Danbooru-worthy. That is, you should address the art quality itself or acknowledge previous feedback. Adding more tags is not a good reason unless they are artist tags. Approvers also don't take score into consideration, so that shouldn't be used as a reason either.
It is possible the rape tag will cause it to be filtered by some approvers' blacklists. There's not really anything you can do about that. But it's still only been less than a day, so there's still plenty of time for other approvers to look at it.
