Removing certain pics from Adorable pools because they don't fit the criteria of cute. If anyone has a problem, feel free to tell the mods to ban me permanently this time. I'm more than willing to go down a martyr and prove that this site prefers people plaguing pools with unfitting pics than to have someone be kind enough to keep things clean! Seeing a banned message is to me a trophy reminding me that I did something good but being repaid with cruelty, and it's something I can still be glad of. In the end, I win!

And if it makes you feel better, I'll only clean up the latest page of each Adorable pool from now on rather than multiple pages.

Such matyrdom for pools that are subjective rather than objective? Don't you think this is more than a little childish of you? Also, you have been asked to explain why you are removing posts from a pool. That's a large part of why you have the warnings and got your seven day ban. Really, in the end no matter what the site wins, because either someone learns from feedback and becomes a better part of the community... or they refuse to take guidance in regards to their behavior and are removed from the community for it.

It's right within the pool's description: Not every chibi post belongs to this pool. This post here is an image of two charaters before a simple background in a very ordinary pose.
I don't see what is "Disgustingly Adorable" here, either. If we start like that, then this restriction in the pool's description is useless.
I suggest that both sides have deserved themselves here: One for not being able to quote the description and therefore explain their actions and the other for not caring to read it (probably).

Then aren't the forums the proper place to discuss that?

You can bring it up, but I simply follow pool's descriptions here when I remove this post.

Oh please, "The criteria of cute". How about you drop the victim act? If all you did was acting objectively you would not have received four feedbacks and a ban about it. If post #2791845 or post #2415070 don't conform to some widely known criteria of "cute" or "adorable", please do enlighten us all by explaining those criteria. Same goes for the hundreds if not thousands of posts added by different people over years that you just decided to remove from various pools because you didn't like them.

For example, this post #2591392 was the reason for one of your feedbacks. How convenient that you decided to ignore it multiple times despite removing it over and over again from its pool, and complain instead in this one.

It would seem arbitrary to remove this one from the pool when a lot of other pictures by the artist of roughly equal "cuteness" levels are making it into the pool.

Pools work "arbitrarily".
I've just added post #2876727 to the pool, but removed this. I just consider this way more cuter (A Legendary Pokémon playing with the helmet) than 2 chibi characrers facing simple the character but doing nothing.
Yes, the other posts should probably be removed, too. But considering the uproar with the pools, I'd rather not do that on a large scale.
