New blacklisting policy for pools?
This is something I want to talk about considering DHB's new Kim Possible comic (which I really do like so far, except for that one page) that features scat one one page.
To cut the chase I'll just quote myself:

Usually that isn't an issue because of blacklists (DHB is free to draw whatever he wants, as long as those of us who don't want to see specific stuff won't have to look at it). Most of us browse comics via the pool functionality however, where our blacklists aren't working, forcing us to manually skip this page every time we use the pool tab and forcing us to look at it every time we look at the entire pool. We don't want to look at this sort of stuff yet we can't avoid it. Which is a shame really, because the rest of the comic is just that awesome.
As blacklists not working with pools is probably a software issue that we probably can't fix ourselves, I'd like to discuss if we can take alternative measures to prevent users from being exposed to stuff that is divisive and blacklisted by a majority of users every time we use pools. While scat and guro are one thing, we also have to consider that blacklists won't work for pools featuring loli/shota material, which might cause serious issues for anyone normally blacklisting it to prevent legal repercussions if he/she lives in a country where it is banned and browses a pool which features it out of the left field on page x. IMO the faster we find a way to address this the better.
One idea I had was removing those pics from the pool and linking them with the pages before and after as a child post... though this would be quite a hassle for anyone and plenty of people that don't have issues with the content shown might completely miss the page.
