i'm a "Post Changes: 1171", on 1171 unique pictures, but often adding/removing/correcting a couple, to upwards of dozens, of tags in the same specific image.
is the "1500" a requirement of 1500 *unique* post-changes? or is it a requirement of 1500-miniumum of the *total number of tags* added/changed/removed?
if the later, i'm likely at 3000+ given i either add 1-3 tags to all changes i do, either
A) removing entirely incorrect with no replacement,
B) replacing incorrect with corrected tags,
C) adding new correct tags: usually dozens of details, including artists (somehow posts get uploaded to the booru, with the artist's name literally in the bottom corner of the picture, but doesn't get uploaded with the tag??)
I've got my own local hydrus set up with a lot of imports, and I spend an hour or two every day pulling from sites like ATFbooru, to incorporate into my own local private booru, and the countless tags i have on there i could easily double-check + manually port over, to existing or new pictures coming up here.
I'd also like to inquire about the "upgrade your account for 20 dollars!" feature:

I'd tried multiple times to try and upgrade, to prevent things (where likely i'm very bandwidth-heavy) to help cover the costs for things.
I have sent donations, before but not sure if it registered with my account or not.
I'd love nothing more than to help, a donation to help the servers, plus reducing issues with "search timeout" i'd love especially.
Let me know if it's 1500 specific pics that had received a tag, vs 1500 unique tags total, and i can beyond easily reach that before years end (if chosen of me).
But regardless: let me know where to donate. I use ATF booru way way too often for me to not want to try and give back for their service.
unrelated possible future idea: exhentai has a "tag voting" system, where people can suggest tags to things, and given their "account weight" (account age, number of posts, number of comments, number of upvotes agreeing w/ the suggested tags) that tag takes precedent.
This will likely prevent spam bots (1 day old accounts, set up to spam random tags on random pictures to create chaos), as well as if there's tag conflicts it becomes a majority vote (including user account-weight) into deciding the proper tag through group consensus.
EDIT: added bonus, I've spent god knows how many hundreds of hours playing around with those novelAI art generation programs I can spot AI generated-pics with about 90% accuracy, for the blatant ones
