The Japanese have a proper term for this — gyakugire.

(Defensive aggression [literally "snapping back"], so to speak.)

No, I'm just thinking of the users first. I saw people requesting some more pages to be uploaded, and despite being in a hurry, I took upon myself to upload them, because despite the... unique artstyle, I was under the impression there was quite a few people liking this pool.
And all I got as thanks are some guy angrily shrieking at me for putting my obligations before his website, and the page I uploaded being called "shit", simply because I lacked the time to tag everything and forgot how to add images to pool.
So yeah, I'm a little bit upset that trying to care for people got me singled out by a person seemingly more interested in screeching and flaunting his statut than actually helping.

Well, if everyone (or just a significant number) does the same, the site will be a total mess, especially images meant to be in series. Figuring out which image goes where would be hard (assuming multiple users causing uploading to be out of order), unless one refers to the images on the original website, in which case whoever's doing the organizing would likely spend more effort then if were to upload the images by himself while tagging them (which he can't do now, because they have already been uploaded). Especially considering the difficulty in searching for those images in the first place if they aren't even tagged.

This get even worse if the artist revises his art (or just uploads to multiple sites that use different compression methods); now someone else can upload a similar image if it's not detected by the automated similarity search (which is iffy sometimes), resulting in multiple similar images interspersed with groups of other similar images, making figuring out parent-duplicate/child relationships (and the overall order of the series) a monumental task.

And again, anyone trying to search for duplicates will have a hard job if the images are poorly tagged. Especially if the artist and character fields are missing.

If this becomes the norm, we get chaos everywhere.

The rules are in place on Danbooru to make images easily searched and organized. Flaunting these rules, especially in the face of a mod, is just... bad manners.

Okay?

Sure, there were requests. About half a year ago, so hardly a time-sensitive issue. You don't need to "take it upon yourself" to upload things if you're in a hurry; if you want to do people a service, just post them slightly later when you do have the time. The site would be a total mess if untagged uploads weren't penalized, and someone informing you of this and getting slightly agitated when you openly say you have no interest in the rules is hardly "screeching". Saying you "won't bother" hardly gives the impression of you as some self-sacrificing saint here.

Also, "shit" is just informal English for "stuff". It doesn't usually mean anything negative about the stuff being referred to, just agitation towards the person if anything.

@FRien
If you don't have time to tag, then don't upload. It's not an optional step.
Learn how that shit work, or don't upload. It's not an optional step.
The picture likely has a negative score because it's completely untagged. Such images are commonly voted down and much, much more unlikely to get approved. Because it's not an optional step.

@O0Z662 First, not enough spare time. Second, no clue how that shit work. Third, seeing as this picture already has a negative score, I don't see why I should bother doing any of that since it's likely not going to get approved.

@FRien Firstly, tag your shit. Secondly, while you're doing so, add the tag pool:12405 to each post in order (or as you upload them, in order) and they'll be put in that pool.

Totally agreed. It's especially silly when you realize that the sisters have both

A.) Done nothing wrong t any innocent people ever as far as we know.

And...

B.) Yorihime didn't even curbstomp them as badly as some make it out to be. She calmly analyzed everything they threw at her (some of them even coming close to winning in the process) and came up with the appropriate counters, and then after defeating them all, fair and square, she let them all go home save Reimu (whom pretty much no one missed, if Aya's rather heartless comment about getting a new shrine maiden could be considered the norm for everyone's reactions), who was only asked to stay so she could demonstrate her power (which is the same as Yorihime's, though Reimu is far more inexperienced in using it) to the Lunarians.

It's especially ridiculous when you consider that almost everyone in Gensokyo, save a handful of named characters, is technically antagonistic towards humanity. Freaking Byakuren herself stated that Gensokyo is basically a cattle farm for the youkai/spirits/gods (the regular residents give the youkai and gods the fear and faith they need to live, meanwhile the people Yukari brings in from outside become food for the flesh-eating youkai) in SoPM and Kanako agreed.

You are forgetting other good point for them like while they have the same superiority attitude of their people the Watatsuki sisters are more reasonable and less racist (without counting Sagume) heck they treated Reimu like a guest despite she was their prisoner and hided a human for 3 years when they were young. Let's not forget that they are ones of the few Lunarians who don't treat the Moon Rabbits like tools
And that during their fight Reimu and co. had some handicaps or problems: Marisa had her magics weakened by moon atmosphere, Sakuya lost because she tried to win whit flashy move, even Remilia said it, Remi... well do you know that big thing called sun vampire great weakness? And Reimu didn't go all out for personal issue.

Earlier in the comments, it was mentioned that someone got a score of one. I have gotten a score of zero. Yes, zero. Crap circle, and just another crap circle for the symbol (Yuuka's, in this case), and then only a speed of ~20.
Incidentally, my highest score (also Yuuka, as it just so happens) is >300,000,000,000. Not the biggest on here by any means, but not horrible, IMO.

Thank you. Anyone who says the Watatsukis are the most facepalm-worthy thing in SSiB forgot about the moment where Sakuya didn't know what the vacuum of space was (among other things...).

Well, the world in Gensoukyou still works like myths.

Heaven is up in the sky, and hell is deep underground. There can be castle under the sea where everyone wears courtesan fashion despite living underwater. If Gensoukyou is based on western myth, it could even be possible to find turtle under the earth, and elephants; as well as seeing heavenly objects revolving around the earth.

Patchouli also said to Eirin, they are flying to the moon they see is floating in the sky. That's not Moon the Earth's satelite where Apollo missions are sent. Their moon is located in a totally different reality.
For creature of myths, the sky is limitless.

...why would Sakuya know that there is vacuum in space?

Also, I think that the main reason why Watatsukis are hated is that they feel pretty mary sue typeish, for some reason.

It pisses me so fucking much that Touhou fanartists love to torture Yorihime and Toyohime, but almost no one have drawn characters like Eirin, Kanako or Seiga, who have done legitimately cruel things in canon, getting their just deserts.
