Pointless Pools

BUR #15810 has been approved by @evazion.

nuke pool:18959
mass update favgroup:21839 -> ina's_back_(meme)

It's been nine months and this pool still exists for some reason despite being 90% covered by searching Ina + back/from_behind. There are a handful that don't necessarily count for those but still seem to be references to it so I added them to a favgroup so they can become a meme tag.

unnecessary pool of barefoot tag

We may as well nuke "women in practical armor", "disgustingly adorable", and "badass" then. This pool can fit any genre/time period tags of fighting character in it, it has equal point to the above pool other than the fact that had some minor fetishism added to it.

might as well include pool #109 too (as well as the "perfect- " pools from the oldbooru days). The reasoning back then was that these pools would serve as useful anatomy pools to help artists, but nowadays even art sites like pixiv have their own anatomy how-tos and guides and our own anatomy pools had long outlived their usefulness.

pool #20151 feels like favorite collection. Since the main requirement is that the man needs to be handsome you could easily search this with a variation of the het + 1boy tag and -ugly man tag.

No, the main requirement is that it's hetero sex but focusing on the male as much or more then the female, most stuff in het 1boy -ugly man still has the male mostly or completely out of view. Even 1boy hetero -pov -out_of_frame -faceless_male -ugly_man still gives results like: post #6391388 or post #6393696

If the pool was filled with pov or male focused I wouldn't have had an issue but it's not. There's no true focus to the pool and the criteria to be added to the pool is vague at best. The pool is pointless

Except that there is in fact clear criteria that is difficult to find by searching with pure tags. It's something that even with no tag limits is still incredibly difficult to look for. If you can find a search string that's not ridiculous that describes the criteria, then maybe we can describe it as useless, but the search you originally posted does not give results that are mostly or equally focusing on the male of the image as opposed to the female. I mean goodness there was a forum post searching for images like this only yesterday, topic #24188 proving it's a difficult to search for concept, owing to the fact that males are undertagged.

I need someone to nuke pool #20290. It was a pool made to house a manga that got rejected by the modqueue, and I have no interest in attempting to appeal it. So because everything in it got deleted, I need to get rid of the pool, and the only reason I haven't deleted it myself is because I physically can't at the Member level I'm currently at. So if someone of a higher rank could delete it so it stops showing up in the search (without adding in deleted pools that is), that would be lovely.
