Derpibooru, is it taboo?


Summer Wish

Recommended Posts

Now I can already feel the heat from the mods torchs, and I am not making this thread to push one fetish artist or another. But Derpibooru has hundreds of thousands of art and animation that many hyper talented people have made, for THIS fandom. Is it "wrong" to mention the site in conversation? Is it prudish to lift one's nose up at such content.?

Derpibooru has art of all forms, mentioning Derpibooru itself shouldn't cause any issues, it comes with "safe" filter as default.

I was like you

No, Derpibooru, posting pics from Derpibooru and discussion of its artists are allowed. Hell, I posts a lot of pics I get there

 

Just don't post porn

It's the largest image sharing site in the fandom, derpibooru.org.  Honestly, the worst thing about it (assuming you're alright with porn) is the toxic community.  I know at least one artist who refuses to upload their images there simply because the community will tear it apart for no reason.

Its a hosting site for all forms of pony art and from my travels around the website is the only one that as filters active by default and not vice versa. If your wanting to get pictures without seeing any of the more adult stuff, it isn't a bad site.

I don't really "utilize" Derpibooru, as I prefer to look for art directly in artists' galleries at dA.  The latter site boasts a far better, more artist-friendly community.  Huh.  Odd that pony-related art and written works should be more well-received or less often disparaged at dA than they are at either Derpibooru or FIMFiction (two sites seemingly intended specifically for Bronies and Brony-made content).  HmmmmMMMmmMmmm...

Derpi has a filter, there's even a whole section dedicated to the filters and stuff you may find distasteful.

@Summer Wish,
 
As your topic deals more with the culture of the brony fandom rather than direct discussions of art forms and art resources, I've gone ahead and taken the liberty into moving your thread to Sugarcube Corner- we have all brony talk that doesn't much to do with the canon of the show here.
 
Derpibooru itself (there's loads of lovely art of all types uploaded there that are allowed to be url embedded and shared in our own fanclubs, etc.) doesn't have taboo connotations in this community. Unauthorized exploitation of artworks and NSFW content does.

I can't really say for your experiences elsewhere but you should be fine discussing Derpibooru here as long as you accommodate and respect our policies in turn.

There are a lot of really friendly, talented people on Derpibooru. That being said, there's also a lot of jackasses on Derpi and a lot of hostility in general. A lot of people on Derpi were originally on 4chan and jumped ship when 4chan (briefly) banned all MLP-related content, so the culture on Derpi is essentially diet /mlp/. Make of that what you will.

Derpibooru as an image site itself is really useful for me, considering it pretty much has 85% of all the art that is created in the fandom.

 

But what i can't stand, is the hostile and toxic crowd there, that really suck the joy out of it being there. I know not everybody on it is like this, but for me atleast, the bad sadly outweighs the good of it.

Thank you Randimaxis for this Wonderful Avatar. smile.png

Please, don't be afraid to talk to me. I am not as unapproachable, as you might think.

Its filtering system is far superior to that of DeviantArt... that is it actually has filtering system rather than just search function. Though I make use of it, my interaction with Derpibooru community, however, is non-existent but I have heard bad things about it with posts above as examples.

No. I mean, derpibooru has a lot of art work but it also has a lot of porn. Is there something taboo about the porn? Just learn to use the tags and you'll be fine.

Not at all. In fact most of the art I share from MLP on here is taken directly from the site - all SFW of course. I would suspect this is the case for a lot of people that don't rely of Google image search. Since I tend to browse in the living room, I use the appropriate filter on the site when searching. Since it has specific paraphilia I personally don't want to see, I keep the filter on even if I am in my home office. As far as I know there is no taboo on the site itself. 

 

Obviously RY is my favorite search term. Gotta keep the Rarity Fan Club up to date. :D

I can only speak to MLPF and only during the time I was involved in the site's management. What I am about to say is only specific for MLPF circa August 2014 to May 2016 ... those who were responsible for the day to day running of MLP Forums, up to Administration, have had nothing but respect for Equestria Daily and Derp. More to that, the MLPF staff to my knowledge have never fielded anything negative from those sites either. Shit, I personally have nothing but the highest amount of respect for both sites and the staff that run them. I don't know Derp's staff by name, but have met the EqD staff as simply a fan and they all seem like decent people ... from Calpain to Seth.

Hmmm, I doubt that the amount of "spicy horse content" is the problem in this forum, but rather the community, which I've read lately they're quite nasty :huh:

The only pet peeve I have with Derpi is that people steal art to post *all the time* one of my favorite artists has a huge problem with this--For example she posted her MLP themed icon she animated and drew by scratch, and within minutes was uploaded to Derpi and they don't allow double uploading/linking to the original.

It's only happened to me a couple of time (Having my artwork posted there without permission) but it's non-stop for her, and they haven't updated the DNU artist list with her on it.
