Being ambushed by bad pics you were trying to blacklist is very unpleasant. I can forgive a few that are borderline, but most are obvious what they are. But far more than that, my posts are about the "illegality" of the material in most countries, and above all, uploaders not tagging the main theme of the pic. Hey, if she's 8, please tag it "loli". Then you won't have upset people. I've seen posts ranting about how much the user hates bondage, and why don't people tag it? So, as a guy who likes bondage, I do when I see it not carrying the "bondage" or "bdsm" tag. 1). It lets those who don't like bondage blacklist that pics ( and not be shocked ) and 2) it gives me a filter to show only bondage pics. Win/Win.
a) Leave worrying about the legality of Gelbooru to the admins. They have more to lose than you or me on this, and given that they already allow loli, I don't think you'll be changing their minds.
b) You're browsing a tag, and something that isn't tagged with something you've blacklisted pops up. Shit happens.
c) Your own interpretation of a character being "loli" is a lot more sensitive than most; if you tagged
gelbooru.com/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=2316787 as loli then I think at this point it's your problem, not anyone else's.

And Jerl, maybe it is ignored in your area, but when pics come up on the screen in a search, that means the thumbnails have been downloaded to the computer looking at the page. So, actually, the thumbnails are being transferred. Never know what sticks in your computer. And the cops just LOVE to comb through hard drives now, even deleted stuff. I really just want NOTHING to do with loli.
If it's that much of a concern to you, literally the only thing you can do is leave Gelbooru for a site where loli is not allowed at all.
