There are TWO DNP-less boorus (one of which is all-anon and doesn't have community forums, and the other one _*has less users than the first_*) already, retard. Having a third one accomplishes exactly two things: jack and shit. Oh and appeasing your ego about "being different from Derpi" I guess.
 
Meanwhile having DNPs baits artists into thinking they're pandered to, and either revealing their sources* or letting their art be uploaded, which leads to it being manually uploaded or fetched onto both the archival boorus. It's a honeypot that leads to net increase in amount of pony art archived.
 
>lmao ok
 
>>**they kept abusing** the original one and bending it
 
>aka the rules are fine, the execution is shit

 
It's the thing you everyone collectively fail to understand:
*if execution is flawed, no amount of changing the rules will fix it*. "Hurr durr ur gonna pull a durpee" can be claimed EXACTLY AS WELL for Twibooru and Ponerpics because *the rule specifics are irrelevant for their abuse*, abuse depends entirely on the staff team. And corrupt, cronyistic, biased staff can easily happen regardless of the rules, whether they're "yes we like artists please interact" or "WE ARE PIRATES FUCK YOU AND FUCK FURRIES", because again, the HR process is completely independent of the ruleset.  
The real argument
would be "implement automatic audit log so that mod action reporting doesn't rely on trust system".
 
*Speaking of whi
ch, I think DNPs should require a public artist link, with private being unacceptable, specifically for this reason.
No reason given
