Pointless Pools

pool #11480 favorites/stupid pool

Despite the fact that design taste is subjective, that is the only pool which focuses on the bordering effects and negative space in a post.

pool #9045 - powerful girls and broken cars

Any reason why this should exist?

If we don't have something covering it, perhaps retooling this pool around the idea of images of people destroying or defeating vehicles and machines barehanded or with melee weapons.

And here I thought I'd seen every fetish around.

I like that. A more generalized pool that tags can't cover alone.

Lol, this pool's obscurity is overwhelming.

Finally, a pool for post #205145 and post #1843250.

pool #11698, per the discussion in topic #13312

Change the pool name to Vehicular Slaughter and added those posts.

pool #11643 - Touhou - Untitled Comic (mimoto (aszxdfcv))

Partial duplicate of pool #10822, and all posts are already in the latter pool.

pool #5080 Looks like a favourites pool with some recurring characters.

pool #11711

Isn't that just watanabe_you + rozen5? Looks uneccessary to me.

Have any input on this before potentially deleting this pool?

It's not a favourites pool, it was a section on the artist's old website.

I don't see the common theme for this pool. If this was depicting all of the images of an artist's original series where the tag search {artist_name original} produced too many misses, that'd be one thing and the grouping would have merit. It would still need a description though to explain the pool and also validate the need for grouping them into a pool like this.

pool #7966 "Past self"

This could be replaced by a tag of the same name.

I wonder, can pools containing nothing but banned posts be qualified as pointless pools since the artist sent cease and desist requests to albert and his moderator team?

If it's so, then pool #9982 can be considered for deletion and turn into a tag or unpooled posts as shin'en has prohibited "reprinting" of his artworks right from the start.

I like the idea of repurposing it. Finally a pool we ca put Street Fighter images in, if there are any from the "trashing a car" time trials.

pool #1513 - Height Doesn't Matter
height_difference couple

Seems useful for those with a height interest ( not me ); I doubt I would think of the wording of that tag ever, which is why pools are superior.

Plus uploaders might well add an image to a pool, but not think to use a particular --- very obscure --- tag.
