Sorry to bring this up again, but would it be really difficult to add the whole “order:upvotes” syntax to the search, rather than having to choose it afterwards as a second search?
 
It seems like it would really reduce the number of searches needed, which means less load on the system, right?

System doesn’t care about handling searches, it’s built for handling searches.
 
(Other boorus like Danbooru/Gelbooru/Shimmie are NOT built for handling searches and will often fall over if you feed them particularly hard searches.)

I’ve noticed the search is a lot faster than almost any other booru, but serving all the thumbnails adds a bit too, right?
 
The first 50 results for “anthro” would obviously be cached, but searching for something obscure like “princess*, *racism” before doing an order-by-score might mean loading and serving 100 thumbs vs 50?
 
(edit: if there were more than one page of results for that…)

A. All images are cached by CloudFlare so we don’t feel a thing.  
B. Serving up a file that you don’t have to put behind a web application is really fast.  
C. Images are not part of the HTML response you get, they are always external links that the browser loads inline.

It’s already been explained to you many times.
 
And using gte also means you can set fine tuned settings for score instead of relying on some arbitary tag.

Actually, it never has.  
They said why they changed it, but never gave anything resembling a good reason why they couldn’t have put up some sort of announcement. How exactly were people supposed to magically know to start digging around in this forum to find out right then?
 
@Nittany Discord  
Not in any way a reason to not give a warning.
 
@The Frowning Pony  
That’s… Not like this. Considering:  
  1. That’s redundant with another tag, rather than something else.  
  2. You tend to alias that kind of thing rather than delete it.  
  3. It’s not a widely used thing.  
    And all of this is completely dodging the simple question of “why not give a warning?”, if you need to make a change fine, but don’t sneak it past people.
     
    @soundtea  
    Not really a good thing, but not sure if I should go into that, trying to focus on not giving a warning.
