I strongly disagree with the first - we already see quite a lot of low-quality manips go through as is.
I think it comes down to a question of preference; there are some care strongly about the quality of the work, and others who care about the ideas presented more then the execution - given that blacklisting is a thing, it makes more sense to me to have greater inclusion. or what it's worth, I chose to answer the question not based on mass acceptance, but what my preferences are

Real-life manips are 99% terrible in quality, so I at least understand why they did that. Doesn't mean I entirely agree, I have seen some good ones on the Collective, but the 1 gem doesn't warrant getting bombarded with all the crappy "oh look I threw some green dots on an image nicked from Brazzers" ones.
pretty much the above again

As for "mind break and anything that suggests mental alteration or physical control", 99% of it is already allowed. As long as it's visibly hynosis/mind control and not just "Torture someone until they snap", it can go here.
again, my arguments for greater inclusion, etc etc

The hate/loathe button - I agree with the premise of "blacklisting" individual pics (I have one blacklist item where it was either that or blacklist a huge combination of tags just to exclude one or two images). Just needs a different name than that.
glad you like the random idea - couldn't think of a proper antonym for "favorite" - if we called it liking, then unliking would be fine, but unfavoriting sounds awkward

The points system, however, I disagree with. It adds precisely nothing and just incites a lot of "Why is this rated so negatively" BS from the people who disagree with the consensus.
what can I say? I like meaningless points systems, and there are plenty of times I see an image an just want to express my distaste somehow. The key word here is meaningless - no one would be condemned from having negative points, but it might make for interesting searches. Admittedly, there are those who take points systems too seriously, but I feel that's their own issues
