Expanding on this: The whole "ion this website, the tag 'cub' is a body type thing, not an age thing" is going to get us ***so many*** DNPs once people start taking notice. Like, there's a *lot* of artists out there who don't want their art associated even *remotely* with cub/shota/loli stuff, much less *directly tagged as such*...

Oh, I could have, like, gone over to rule 34 or something, but I LIKE figuring character sources and applying/fixing tags distinctions. E621 really scratched that cataloguing/documentation/ontology itch for me.
