Description Well, one thing that uses to happen on dA is when someone wants to find things like mythological trolls, real ponies or of other kind of ponies instead the MLP ones or pictures about some country (like Italia, Korea or Russia), one see pictures about trollfaces, Homestuck, Hetalia characters and MLP:FiM stuff, which can be very boring sometimes.

To see less of this stuff and more of you really wish to see, you should put a minus sign before the keyword you want to avoid.

In example, to avoid to see Hetalia stuff when you want to see stuff about Russia (not the Hetalia character, obviously), you should type in the search box
"Russia -hetalia"
or to search about mythological trolls
"troll trolls -trollface -homestuck -trolling -meme -coolface"

Actually what is going to happen is that you will not see too many matches about these images, though sometimes you will see some of these images but less at least.

As a suggestion for the deviantART team, maybe can be useful to allow to the users to configure the search criteria when they wants to find pictures on dA and have these anti-keywords by default.

You can use stamps even if you aren't a non-premium user ----> [link]

Well, even if some images do get under the radar despite you not wanting to see them, unless you run into stuff that's against the rules or some seriously nasty shit like (REAL LIFE) gore/snuff or (real) child pornography, just chill.

I mean, come on, you don't run the internet, and some things, whether or not you like them, will be posted on the internet, for other people's enjoyment. If seeing a cartoon pony, even once, pisses you off so much, to the point where you think it's the worst thing ever created by humanity, then you should go on the deep web; you probably won't run into colorful equines, but you WILL find: Hitman services, (REAL, NOT DRAWN IN ANY SHAPE OR FORM) child pornography, kidnapping, sex slavery, (100% SERIOUS) boards supporting rape, pedophilia, zoophilia, animal sadism, etc.

Sort to do this, but the phrasing could use some work. The first part should say, "Tired of seeing" .

I looked up "magic" on the search bar, expecting something really cool, and I end up getting MLP:FIM fanart.
Nothing against it, it just gets really annoying.

I tried using "magic -mlp -fim -pony -ponies" and it show me less pictures of MLP:FiM than searching only with "magic".

I don't mind Homestuck or ponies and things, but it does get VERY annoying when you want to look at something which isn't fanart.
