Terms of Service for BBooru Elaborated - Please PM staff any questions, forum is too small for them.
Terms of Service - Welcome to BBooru!

Welcome to BBooru your new home for all porn weird and wonderful, we hope you will enjoy many hours of fun and frolics.

Our mission is to create a true and supportive website, dedicated to the appreciation of porn.

Everything distracting your enjoyment of this website is actively removed, zero drama is tolerated.

We strive to make our viewers feel welcome, supported and looked after as well as ensure Artists are respected and encouraged.


The following terms are to ensure a well-ordered and tolerable website for all to enjoy, check your drama at the door, leave your worries behind and enjoy.

By accessing the BBooru.net website you accept the following Terms of Service. From that point on-wards, BBooru.net will treat your use of the Site as acceptance of the following Terms.
--------------------------------------------------------------

What's allowed:
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
1. All styles of drawn/animated porn are allowed providing it meets minimum quality/art standards, providing it's not a duplicate of any kind, be sure that the image you upload has no anatomy/line art mistakes and only submit good quality works.

We accept SFW was well, but try to keep it on topic.

2. Animation Gif's, webm's of animation or 3d etc but keep them a reasonable length, not to short, not to long, we prefer webm.

3. Comments of your respectful opinions, constructive critique, supportive comments, source link suggestions, whatever you feel like saying as long as it does not break the terms or advertise, advertising includes personal advertising like RP requests which are not allowed.

4. Edits of other peoples works are not allowed, do not upload edits of other peoples works, AI edits of others work especially are unwelcome, it causes the original artist to get very upset understandably and take down all their works.

Artists can of course edit their own works providing it's done well and with permission co-labs are allowed also, try to mark them as such.


What's NOT allowed:
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Disclaimer: All account bans permanently de-activate the account, be careful to keep to the terms.

Also you may be instantly banned if you break any term severely enough in one go or insult staff or state/insinuate you will not comply, so please cooperate always.

1. Uploading real media of those under 18 even Clothed images of under 18's will get you permanently IP banned and reported, they have no place on a porn site.

1a. Loli/Shota/Toddlercon is strictly prohibited, you may or may not be warned and most certainly banned if you continue, zero tolerance. (See FAQ 4, 4a for more)

Having any loli/shota related user/tags/writing names used for under age role playing like loli/shota will be banned.

A loli/shota are terms for human fictional characters.

(Older cub depictions of obvious animals are not loli/shota.)

Any text such as RP or comments mentioning u-age characters, or referring to u-age things will get you perm banned with no warning.

Including pointing out a character is a certain underage age or anything regarding that, there is no place on this website for anything remotely to do with such topics, it's inappropriately disturbing, use the report to moderator if you think an image is. Don't creep everyone out by saying it in the comments or you will be shown out.

2. Advertising of any kind (artists may link to their individual page in the comments and on the image, but only a link, no text advertising extra stuff).

Personal or RP Requests- We have to ban people every day for this, do not post them. RP is ok to do, but spamming everyone with requests for RP is not.

No previews, trailers, teasers, uncensored version here advertisements, hidden source or comment ads, this is advertising it will be removed and you may be banned, this website is an archive for older for complete works.

No censorship of any kind except mandatory Japanese censorship, including panty version and a pointer to non panty version type ad pushing.

No large links, logo's which obscure the image.

Patreon or similar links on the image are only permitted if they are posted on Patreon or similar sites and it can't be helped, if they are placed purely to advertise patreon or patreon like sites the images will be removed as this is not the link to the artists website.

No Re-watermarking images or claiming content that does not belong to you, or watermarks that cover large sections of the image in some way, no watermarks that censor or obscure the subject too much eg. excessively large pay site website URLs, censorship patreon watermarks.

Refrain from uploading paywall only content that's not publicly released.

If you re-upload content taken down for DMCA, or upload more of the same artist after a DMCA takedown, expect to be banned right away, do not upload DMCA content that has been taken down on that account before.

Give the artist time to benefit from posting there, those who post recent patreon content will have it removed if discovered by the artist. Remember only artists can report patreon content via the DMCA copyright email.

No Watermarks featuring AI generation sites or other art generation sites, we only allow artist or the one who generated it watermarks. No source links or tagging AI generation sites.

No links to any other site in the comments/forum unless it's the artists website.

No giving source links to similar sites like this one, the source is to the original artist's site only!

No using the report function to take down your own uploads, unless they are obviously corrupted, artifacted (ppor compression), or break terms of service by being non porn etc, then you can report your own content.

If you simply want it down you need to be the artist and contact [email protected] as we are an archive.

3. Anything that’s found illegal in the Netherlands (where Booru is hosted) or in the United States is prohibited.

4. No real-life porn, no porn that isn't drawn or animated painted, drawn, 3d etc etc, no photo or video real porn with real human beings in it basically or physical real world objects. Do not upload photos of real people anywhere on the website including the forum.

No photo realistic porn of minors of any kind, especially celebrity minors face's on 3d realistic or generated porn will be a ban, make sure they are adults! fast permanent ban for any AI generated also, make sure AI is 18+ in anatomy and do not upload depictions of petite or young looking characters in AI.

4b. Porn which is designed to be excessively graphic that crosses the line (ie. it has little sexual content or it will drive away users), this content may lead to a ban without warning:

Porn that would seriously shock, offend, disturb i.e. gratuitous/hardcore

Torture porn especially showing gratuitous mutilation or long scenes on disturbing scenes is not allowed either, genital mutilation which is designed for a very very niche audience involving cute/innocent subjects, you will be locked or banned if you do for trolling the site, this is obviously not the place for very disturbing niche content.

Infants (including cub babies)goes without saying is a ban offense, as is any torture upon cute animals, it's disturbing, it's bannable.

Grotesque fetish porn which is designed to disgust or disturb, old people porn, fat rolls porn and other grotesque niche fetishes are not allowed.

Crazy hyper porn which becomes disturbing.

Genitalia on display being tortured but nothing porn related going on may well be removed as disturbing.

Guro/Gore that shows bones, too much guts, genital mutilation or brain.

Showing bones and guts and gore, will be handled under the gore rule and removed for being too much, very few are interested in the results of vore, there are many good websites for this content already.

We mean don't upload art that has lots of chopped up parts, guts everywhere, bones showing, brains showing, there's no titties or ass/genitalia, nothing that makes it sexual.

No graphic overly detailed disturbing vore, no non porn vore just showing the belly, it needs to be a full set of images, linked together in a pool or via parent/child posts, any on their own will be removed.

No non lewd non titillating vore, it needs to be porn in the general sense.

ie. vore with no nudity (sorry no bulging belly's unless part of a story), vore with fully clothed or partially clothed subjects is not considered porn.

No real animal genitalia, real bestiality, real zoophilia. real animals etc; we don't want to see fido get your bone...

No 3d realistic zoophilia etc either, if it looks too real expect it to be removed, it's gotto be unmistakably fake.

Any hardcore scat is not permitted as well as scat edits, only mild scat is permitted, which means a small amount of feces is tolerated as part of the porn, it must not obscure the subject, it must not take up the scene, small poops only sorry.

Fart porn will be removed and fart art which is too graphic or the cloud covers up the subject to much will be removed, we are not a site for niche fetishes.

Ultimately staff will determine what is too graphic and excessive with regards to gore, scat, vore, etc.

4c. No poor quality art work/edits etc., this could be due to lighting, due to bad line art, bad shading etc etc, no image should be uploaded smaller than 250x250 AI needs to be 500 minimum in one dimension.

No Upscales! waifu 2x etc, no altering the resolution/fps of the original image/media. See 6 for more on upscaling.

No large absurd resolutions, keep it reasonable 10000x10000 is around the max.

4d. AI PORN UPLOADERS A REMINDER THERE IS EXTRA CRITERIA FOR AI PORN BECAUSE WE ARE GETTING TOO MANY, DO NOT SPAM POST, WATCH WHAT YOU POST!

No bad anatomy generations, if it's not done it right, don't upload it.

It must be porn or very lewd, it must be a decent interesting generation, if you upload dozens of tiny iterations, expect us to remove them.

It must not be photo realistic, this means you could mistake it for real, this does not mean we remove anything remotely real, as long as we can see it's art, then OK.

All anatomy needs to appear 18+ this is because of the more realistic style it generates, beware that AI often likes to use young face's, you could be banned without warning for these, you have been warned, it is messed up.

Please report any AI up-loader who breaks ToS, they are risking all AI content from being able to remain here.

5. Drawn porn that is not sufficiently titillating by it'self (we judge what is and what isn't but for example clothing that isn't see through or very revealing) is only allowed if it is part of a story that becomes porn like a comic, but make sure that it is a c post or a parent of an image (pools also work) to ensure they are linked together, or it may get deleted by mistake

Good quality means the image quality, but it also means the lighting (not super dark or light) and what is taking place in the image.

6. Poor-quality content and edits; pixelated, tiny, or poorly-drawn images, tracing, re-skins, skin tone edit, images that have anatomy errors/line art issues/amateurish appearance and possibly had little effort spent upon them will be removed and you could be banned for multiple uploads after being warned.

Fetish images and images which focus on one body part may be removed under quality reasons, because it is a niche fetish and not of broad appeal, for example only feet, or only genitalia and nothing else may well be removed. Non porn or non lewd porn may be removed if not sufficiently of broad lewdness for the general audience, unless part of a set where the subject comes porn.

Crops made by users or those who edit original works is considered poor quality and will be removed, good crops by the original artist are permitted somewhat, except when used to advertise sites like Patreon.

Sketches, lined paper or photographs of artworks are generally not allowed unless they are very good in quality, we prefer digital finished art work. Real life pencil/ink sketches especially need to be on good paper, well scanned, no photo's, finished and very good in artistic quality and skill.

Editing videos or animations in any way is not allowed, this includes adding frames, or cutting bits off, adding text like captions to images and videos that are not yours is strictly prohibited. Also includes any collecting images or videos in a way not sanctioned by the artist, so no collages, vertical set collections, edit compilations of different artists (NOTE COMPILATIONS OF THE SAME ARTIST ARE ALLOWED) etc etc, don't mess with the artists original works without permission.

Creating images/comments designed to offend/bait/antagonize a group may be removed if it is sufficiently provocative, we do not usually remove content which offends Religion or politics, but race stuff especially we have to be careful with, no race bait or racial play that goes to far, especially into signs and slogans, this includes saying no of a certain race, that's racist and signs or labels of it is not tolerated.

This includes gross, taboo topics such as bestiality, incest, underage RP even hinting, illegal acts of any kind, you will be banned.

Tracing original works will get you banned fast, we have no tolerance for plagiarism.

Radical changes to characters is not permitted, that means changing race, skin color, adding bizarre features etc, if we think it will upset the original artist or fan of the character it may be removed on those grounds.

6a. DO NOT RESIZE/UPSCALE! resizing original artists work is strictly prohibited, any 2x 1.6x etc. resizes shall be purged. Because re-sizes look bigger, but are of lesser quality.

Also try to avoid images that have been downsized 50% and only upload if your sure you cannot get the full size image, if you know you can get the fullsize image eventually then wait.

6b. Any tributes, like ejaculations of a penis next to an image or doll or any object or porn etc etc, is considered to have been made with little effort and is treated the same way as art made with little effort. We don't allow men jacking off alone stuff basically, we would be flooded with it if we allowed it, since men make ALLOT of that kind of content and we are trying to preserve a balance of porn here, yes it's very sexist we know.

(edits see section 12)

6c. Screenshots of video games and other media is considered of little effort and is not permitted, exceptions to this may be high-quality screenshots or 3d modeling screenshots.

6d. AI generated art that is not lewd, sorry no fully clothed AI generated that becomes nude in a set for example, you got start lewd clothing, we wont host non lewd fully clothed AI generated art.

7. Comments/Forum posts written in any other language than English they will be removed, and if repeated the ability to comment will be removed. Do not make any foreign language requests or forum posts, this includes nation-centric forum posts.

Any comments of taboo, sensitive, or controversial subjects will be treated as trolling. This includes taboo fetishes that are disturbing, this includes politics, religion, any talk about kids is an extremely bad idea for any reason anywhere on this site, you will be banned.

No personal thread topics on the forum, your work, your group, your art, personal ad etc, all forum is for group topics only, not about one person in particular.

7a. Excessive/repetitive commenting, ie. stating the same kind of thing over and over on many images, or on the forum repeating the same words or phrases over and over.

8. Linking/writing ads of any external website/platform/social media, chat etc. in comments or outside of the designated forum threads. (Artist is allowed one link to their website)

No Personal ads etc, you may be banned on the first offense without warning. (does not include forum where you can post links, just not ones to similar websites).

8a. Source/comment links must be directly linked to the source image and not to the category or main website as this is spam advertising, always try to link to the artist page or collective artist page if possible, additional source links to commercial or ad driven sites are not permitted (because we get issues with people spamming websites).
(This does not apply to Artists and artists websites, the bot is exempt because it auto adds links)

8b. No scripting to images which are not the source either please.

9. Anything written on the site which intends insult/upset/disrespect anyone including sexism, racism, bigotry, hate speech, bullying, slurs, human underage ads or discussion this includes incest, loli/shota stuff, age play, nothing underage or associated with.

Be reasonable and be respectful to all users and staff, or expect your comment to be erased and your account gone if you persist. This includes no insulting staff or accusing them, instead report to Admin.

No incest or creepy comments about that, expect disturbing comments to be removed and instant perma bans for anything remotely to do with u-age stuff, you wont be warned.

9a. No all caps comments, they aren't big and they aren't clever.

9b. Forum posts are not for site matters, nor are a place to report anything, please use the mailing system in 'my account' and contact the Mods.

The forum is for light hearted chat, role play, fun things, this is a porn site, all complaints, queries etc are better handled direct with where things can be done.

9c. Comments which refer to vote abuse (read the FAQ), or comments enticing people to downvote, are strictly prohibited.

9d. Do not rate images in the comments with numbers by themselves, by all means, share reasonable feedback/review etc, but rating numbers by themselves make no sense.

9e. Be aware that insulting staff doing their job is unacceptable, you "may" get a warning first (you may not if it's bad enough we might just ban you right away), but it is a banable offense.

10. Tag request comments; they will usually be removed. You can register in 5 seconds and tag it yourself, it's extremely easy to do, so you just look like a lazy asshat.

11. When using the mail system, be respectful and polite, any harassment or lurid unwanted sexual mail's that are reported will get you banned, so ask the person before you get sexual.


12. Edits of original artwork is against copyright law, we will remove any we find and ban those doing it, bare this in mind.

No skin colour edits are permitted unless by original artist, swapping one body part like the face, head, breasts etc will not be permitted, an edit should be a transformative work (and you should ask the original artists permission), we reserve the right to remove any edit for any reason.

Real life images/videos that have been altered from the original or doctored will be removed, this includes celebrity fakes.

12 a. Patreon and other exclusive higher quality works will not be posted the same day they come out or even that week for that matter! the reason is simple, an artist is more likely to take down their content using a copyright request, if you post their exclusive work day one, please wait at least one week before uploading, to allow the artist some time to profit.

12 b. All non-source edits adding text to images will result in the removal of the image and if repeatedly uploaded lead to a ban, this includes an added story, or personal details, or general ads/personal ads placed within the image, the only text should be from the original artist and a link to the artists website.

13. No part of the images description, tags, sources shall be used for the exclusive interests of the uploader. Eg. adding vote codes to sources, or by changing the original source to the uploaders website over the original source.

Images must be linked to the original source if known, any altering of sources from the original is prohibited.

14. No offensive user names and no excessively long names, any name which is offensive will be banned. Inappropriate user names, underage user names etc.

15. Comments section/Forums:

There is a zero tolerance of drama of any kind, this means you need to be civil and constructive while using them, this means not bringing up things that disturb others.

The mods will decide on common-sense grounds what is acceptable and appropriate, do not expect Admin to cover all of these in the terms of service, Mods decide over what is disturbing and inappropriate and do not need terms to back that up, nor do they need terms to enforce the common-sense keeping order of comments.

This means no: Insulting, racism, arguing, ordering, badgering, harassment, any text (including user names) talking about the, colour, creed, sexual preference, politics/political figures, religion, illegal stuff, general bigotry and anything that's a hot topic guaranteed flame bait. Yes NNN is a flame topic, we'll asume you are trolling if you talk about it too much, this is not the place.

All comments about the art must be constructive in nature and not just what you didn't like about it, make sure what you didn't like or what you thought was of is described in a civil manner.

Some vanilla Role play is permitted, but nothing spicy like incest/rape/young/scat/watersports/gore/vore RP sorry.

Users cannot block the comments, so RP must be acceptable to everyone on the website.

You can site mail PM people for RP, but never advertise or request it on our site.

English language only for moderation purposes, we don't make as much money as you think to pay moderators in every language, we simply cannot moderate it, it's not possible for us at this time, we'd love to! but sorry we cannot right now.

The golden rule applies to this website: "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you" and if you want to be treated badly this isn't the site for you-

16. Forums:- No personal topics please, this means topics about you, because we have a topic to introduce yourself and hookup with people, if everyone made a topic about themselves the forum would quickly get overwhelmed with posts about one person, try to keep it general.

Avoid all drama causing topics, personal topics often attract drama, personal points of view, personal view points on how people should be or should behave, ask me question posts, all these are personal posts and will just get removed because the forum is supposed to be a fun place, not a place where people debate and argue and have drama and we want to avoid that on the forum.

No topics specifically country related, or a political party related etc, for pretty much the same reason, if we had a topic for every country/large group it would be a mess..

17. Flame bait topics/comments - This one is obvious but it seems I need to outline that the Forum/comments section is for fun, it's for light hearted topics about porn/RP/whatever is cool, just no flame bait.

Examples: Shit talking about things, being really nasty about things people like, politics, religion, age of consent, abortion... you get the idea, please avoid controversial comments/topics that are obviously going to start and argument and again no privately owned site has "freedom of speech" rights, that's a law to protect you from Government censorship only ;)

18. Any links to advertising sites, ads, spam, 3rd party link forwarders other similar sites are removed and your account will get instantly banned.

No images are allowed that only advertise sites or products or the artists page, you may have a smaller link on the image (but not obscuring in any way) and in the source, but only if you are sharing the full art, like an image that is uncensored and unobstructed, or an animated part of the product is shared.

Obviously, few second clip, a clothed image, a censored image, a covered image won't be allowed etc etc. None of that sample here go to my paysite to get more, that's a traffic diversion ad, we don't host those.

It needs to be a good original image, no previews, no hiding the goods enticing users to come to your website that way, if they like your work they will click on your link in the comments or in the source.

19. Tags must remain when an image is deleted, do not remove them, mass tags from an image is tag vandam which is an instant permanent ban. Even if you report an image and think it is 100% likely to be removed, DO NOT REMOVE THE TAGS!

My Tag history tells that someone is meddling with it's tags, we have to check it, whoever is found to be remove all tags for whatever reason WILL BE PERMANENTLY BANNED ON THE SPOT.

No tags to do with any prohibited content are allowed, this includes loli/shota tags.

20. Please comply with staff reasonable requests and warnings, failure to do so can result in permanent account suspension.

21. AI porn much like sketches and other faster to produce media is judged stricter than traditional art.

AI porn must be sufficiently lewd, just a cleavage is not enough.

There must not be any obvious anatomy errors, or badly stuck on genitals.

The subjects of the AI generated porn must be of broad appeal and hot and not too niche, examples: scat, neck, non lewd feet, granny porn etc..

AI anatomy must be adult, including and especially the face, we have had too young face's and that will get you banned, so check your content.

Please don't miss report.

Make sure when reporting it violates terms of service, if a mod warns you that you are miss reporting, stop reporting it, you will be banned if you ignore mod warnings.



----------------------------------------------------------


The Admins decision is final, you may, of course, appeal in private message to the admin, but no public appeal is permitted, this means no complaining on the forum etc about something an Admin has done it will be removed.

All site policy is decided by the owner and the matter is not up for debate, if you have a suggestion however please feel free to mail an Admin, please note the forum is no place to discuss policy and all posts on such are removed, because the forum only has so much space and it's mostly for fun things.

--------------------------------------------------------------
You can message Kielan if you have any inquiry about something that's not ted above, or if you don't understand something, don't be afraid to ask!

You may also site mail Kielan using the my account/mail if you feel an image/comment has been removed by mistake.

Note that Booru/Rule34.xxx reserves the right to delete any image or comment at any time for any reason, to have uploaded any image for any reason, to deny access to this service at any time for any reason.

We reserve the right to refuse any deletion request if a valid reason is not presented, being the uploader is not a valid reason to remove the image, the image not getting enough views is not a good enough reason for example.

A good reason is if you upload a better quality image, or an image you uploaded violates our terms, for example if you uploaded nudes here by mistake and then realized we don't allow real porn you can report them.

Rule34 Booru reserves the right to change the Terms of Service at any time for any reason.

Staff who uphold these terms of service are:

Comments Rules

If you break these you may get banned without warning depending how bad it is, we ban on sight for promotion of any kind:

The All ToS applies.

Be excellent to each other.

Do not insult others you will be banned.

Do not promote/request anything in the comments (we mean everything, posting your Discord or social media or anything is not allowed. (artists can link to their art).

No RP requests or advertisements, no hookup advertisements, no dm me or dms open either, the comments will be a mess if we allowed these and we remove them on mass using our purging tools, so don't waste our time and yours.

Remember Comments does not have a filter, everyone can see it, so it has to be more widely accepted than the content that can be blacklisted.


No disturbing comments/RP anywhere on the site, this includes:

No minor related topics of any kind, including rping as an underage character, or even hinting at it.

Illegal acts like rape, zoophilia and incest if you like incest RP, find another website.


No hating, this includes racism, bigotry, hate directed to art or artists, kink shaming is a big nope here, keep your dislikes to yourself.

This include negative comments overall, be constructive and positive, especially towards artists, if you are negative towards artist you will get banned fast.


Tags:
¯¯¯¯¯
Our policy is tag what you see, a couple of tags for the exact same thing is just fine, we need those to get good search results on google etc. Allot of sites go for one tag and it hurts their search results, we instead opt for the middle way, not too many, not too few.


1.

Do not add any tags for prohibited not allowed content ever especially loli/shota tags or child tags, you will be banned for tag vigilantism and inadvertently promoting the upload of that content, instead report it, help the mods find and remove it, which actually achieves what you want.

Images should have: general tags (i.e. "huge_breasts", "white_panties", "blue_hair"), artist tags (i.e. "yamashita_shunya"), character tags (i.e. "jessica_rabbit"), and series name (aka copyright) tags (i.e. "metroid", "the_flintstones", "dragon_quest_iii").

Do not add bracket sub tags, we have tags for series, characters, types etc, we do not want series bracket sub tags like blahblah_(series)

Do not forget basic tags that should be added which are easy like the hair color, proportions, the biological sex of the subject etc.

Tags are the only way people will find your posts once it goes form the front page, so help them out!

2. If you don't know the artist / character / series, please add tag(s) "artist_request" / "character_request" / "copyright_request".

3. If some of the depicted characters don't belong to an existing series and are created by the artist, use the copyright tag "original".

4. If the pic contains non-English text, please add a "translation_request" tag. If you can actually translate that text, please consider adding a note with the translation.

5. Tags: Tags are essential they be correct and to the point, describe the image/video in analytical terms and therefore you should think very carefully before you tag and what you choose to tag and make sure it is accurate to the subject matter, avoid subjective opinion based tags.

Don't use opinion based tags like "pretty", "sexy", "beautiful" "slut" "whore" "what" etc.

Just as shota/loli are banned, so are their tags as well as tags containing "child" or other term for young humans, they have no place on this website, no place at all!, do not use them or you may be banned, some get confused and use them on animals or anthro animals, these are not human therefore you cannot use human prohibited tags on them, don't do it. Use and daughter and son, instead which can apply.

Be sure what is tagged is in the image, do not use canon info or anything else, if it is not clearly displayed in the image do not tag it, especially relationship things like "netorare" "cheating" etc cannot be tagged unless that is specifically being displayed in the image.

We tag what is in the image, what we can see and not tag from canon knowledge, we are concerned with adding tags that help users find the image, not find canon information, personal info, genders etc.

You may wonder why we don't accept outside info, it's because we haven't time to verify it, the artist can claim it's all kinds of things, we have no time to go check it sorry, if we where a small site we might be able to, but we have so many works to process sorry! it's that reason amongst other practical reasons we don't go by canon info, or artist info etc. we go purely by what we see.

Any tags which are derogatory to sex, creed or color are expressly forbidden, any tag which may cause undue offense shall be removed and anyone tagging these will be warned or possibly banned.

Excessive tagging of the same subject matter, is considered tag poisoning, to much of something is never a good thing, keep your tags to the point.

Use the Favorites and Pools systems to single out pics you like.

6. No tag can be mass removed by anyone, to do so is tag vandalism, always ask permission first by shooting a mail to admin, discussion on the forum is not enough. Tag vandalism is a serious offense and will get you instantly banned, always ask permission first.

We have a strict no one tag to rule them all policy because we lack a functioning alias system, this means that we keep a couple of well known tags for the same thing, this is good because it helps users find the images. We do not select one tag and force everything into one tag, that makes no sense to give zero results for popular in use terms. It ides make sense to remove very small not in use tags that cause tag bloat, we need a nice balance there.

7. Titles of an image must follow the artists original title for the image wherever possible, they must be respectful and in keeping with the theme of the image, it must not contain references to things like ownership or derogatory terms.

This is to avoid upsetting the viewers and the artist off by claiming this is your waifu, or saying the character is your personal bitch etc etc.

7a. Redundant or useless tags, two tags for the same thing might be appropriate if allot comes under these tags and they have popular results, so again do not remove them until you get the go ahead from Admin.

Removing tags based on what one person thinks is a redundant tag is tag vandalism without permission, no one person should decide this.

8. other users tags: Never remove tags from images which are duplicates or add a tag that tags them as a duplicate, report them and if they are found to be dupes they will be removed. No one but is to remove all tags from an image for any reason, anyone found doing so will be warned and perm banned if they continue, we cannot effectively detect tag vandalism if people are acting like tag vandals by tags from deleted images etc which is utterly pointless to do as they are removed eventually anyway.

If you disagree with a tag and change/remove and the other person changes it back, it's time to contact a mod to decide which is right, you must abide by the mods decision, which you can appeal with Admin if it's obviously not correct.

9. Never use tags for proclaiming what an image is, a great example is people who tag images as duplicate, never do this, this is not allowed, the reason being is you may be mistaken, you may be reporting a public version that's fine to remain and now are you making more work, don't use tags to denote anything like this, including stating that's it's xyz prohibited content, tags are not for this, reporting is for this.

DO NOT REMOVE ALL TAGS FROM ANY IMAGE FOR ANY REASON, INCLUDING YOUR OWN UPLOADS. Tag Vandalism is a ban offense and removing all tags is tag Vandalism, go through the proper take down procedure.


Note that our policy is 4-5 tags for the same thing is fine.

Never make up your own tags, especially opinion based, always consult with Admin first and use previously used tags.

You can message Kielan if you have any inquiry about something that's not ted above, or if you don't understand something, don't be afraid to ask!

You may also site mail Kielan using the my account/mail if you feel an image/comment has been removed by mistake.

Note that Booru/Rule34.xxx reserves the right to delete any image or comment at any time for any reason, to have uploaded any image for any reason, to deny access to this service at any time for any reason.

We reserve the right to refuse any deletion request if a valid reason is not presented, being the uploader is not a valid reason to remove the image, the image not getting enough views is not a good enough reason for example.

A good reason is if you upload a better quality image, or an image you uploaded violates our terms, for example if you uploaded nudes here by mistake and then realized we don't allow real porn you can report them.

Rule34 Booru reserves the right to change the Terms of Service at any time for any reason.

Staff who uphold these terms of service are:
