1) can + and - work with blacklist?
eg

fart -darkhatboy = should black list all pics with fart tag unless they contain darkhatboy tag

malesub +solo = should blacklist only if pic has both malesub and solo tags



2) if yes, can you do a chain of them?
eg

fart -darkhatboy -disgustinggirl_(manipper) = all fart unless it has either of the other 2

malesub +solo -transgender = all malesub with solo unless it has transgender

diaper +scat +malesub = only blacklists if it has all 3 tags

On first one, my_little_pony -kanashiipanda works.

Just tried it. The short answer is yes.



However instead of using a '+', just put the next word in the same line. So for example in the blacklist:

* tejina_senpai <- blacklists all images with the tejina senpai tag.

* tejina_senpai blush <- blacklists all images with tejina senpai AND blush. Does not blacklist images with ONLY tejina_senpai or ONLY blush.

* tejina_senpai blush -brown_hair <- blacklists all images with tejina senpai AND blush, UNLESS it also contains brown hair. Will not work with anything else.


I would like to caution to probably not make them too complicated or long though, the blacklist has been known to by screwy.

Yeah, '+' characters are probably just ignored, I'd imagine.

great stuff! more questions....

1) would having multiple lines work, or screw up?
eg

malesub -crossdressing
malesub -transgender

= allows only malesub pic that have either crossdressing or transgender?


2) does the exclusion work on both sides, or is that too complex?

yaoi -femdom transgender

= allows yaoi if it has both femdom and transgender?

This would not work, I believe. This is basically telling the blacklist system to block malesub pics that don't have crossdressing AND block malesub pics that don't have transgender. I believe in this situation, all malesub pics would be blocked unless they have both. There's no way that I know of to make an "x or y" exclusion.



For that, it should be "yaoi -femdom -transgender". You have to put the - before each tag that you require be included.

Based on my programmer's intuition and a quick test, it seems to be the other way around: "malesub -crossdressing -transgender" blacklists pictures that have the tag malesub and neither of the tags crossdressing or transgender.

And similarly, to allow yaoi if it has both femdom and transgender, put in "yaoi -femdom" and "yaoi -transgender" on separate lines. Well, that one was a bit harder to test since there are currently no pictures on the site with all three of those tags, but the basic idea works.

What! You can blacklist like this with plusses and minusses whaaat :O I'm gonna use this. Someday. If I ever need it xD Good question!
