Wonder if that's cheaper than buying proper yukkuri food, maybe not if the appetite of a Cirno is as big as the one of an average yukkuri.
Anyway, this Cirnos are awwgasmic. I hope we get the rest translated soon, since i would like to know what is that "special raising" that is needed for Cirnos, outside of "keep it cold and don't let her be in hot places or she'll melt."

For tagging? No difference. The feeding tag was established by grammar nazis and no ones called them out on it so it stayed. The feeding tag is actually misused most of the time. (post #36884? Prying out someone's teeth is "feeding"? You people are psychopaths.)
I believe we had decided "eating" is the yukkuri's act of eating something (cannibalism included), while "feeding" was the act of someone giving the yukkuri (pet) food. Not sure how many people actually adhere to this when tagging though.

I've skimmed the "feeding" tag before and it obviously isn't being used that way (post #38146. You guys really need better yukkuri (pet) food bowls.)
Oh and why not : post #1935. EAT IT BITCH! What? I'm just "feeding" her...
There's also a eaten tag. Obviously a lot of stuff are inconsistent, its better to just ask around in the forums. We can setup aliasing and whatnot if needed.
JusticeItEasy said: There is a notorious difference between Feeding and Eating, so it's a necessary tag, because some people missuse it that doesn't invalidate how useful it is.
I'd agree if it wasn't for the fact that the misuse stretched across 18 pages.

Ah the eaten tag. Yet another tag I refuse to touch. We should start a thread every week for one of these days just to see what people say about it.

JusticeItEasy said: Again just because some people mistag it, it doesn't invalidate it's worth, you have to think like someone searching for pics: "i want pics of yukkuris being feed by humans or their fellow yukkuri"
If the number of "feeding" pictures are overwhelmingly mistagged, it invalidates the worth of the "feeding" tag.
Frankly, put your money where your mouth is. Go fix the tags and I'll drop it.
JusticeItEasy said: By worth i mean hypothetical use, mistagging doesn't invalidate it's worth, mistag just makes it hard to proper use it, but it doesn't invalidate it. What invalidates a tag's worth is it's conceptual use not helping at all in the search.
Practical trumps hypothetical.
You can always fix them yourself as well, specially since you were the one who realized it, I think you do have the permits, if you see something wrong it's kinda nice to help fixing it, instead of complain with a "if you fix it I won't complain anymore" statement. Don't leave things broken if you can fix them just to stablish a silly point.
I have over 7000 tag edits. You have under 1000. Put up or shut up.

Not a dick waving contest.
Even if you disagree with the decision its still the original intent. Also, the "comic" tag is woefully underused. Just because its not used doesn't mean its not useful.
The attitude should be to make our tags better and more useful, not dismiss the ones you don't like as "useless".
JusticeItEasy said: I just finished fixing Feeding, and the funny thing is for all the whinning you did, it was only 2 pages worth of mistag out of 22 pages that now are 20, i barely noticed a few that i had doubts, but i rather leave that to someone with better judgement than me in the matter.
Ok, I'm done. You win. The feeding tag is obviously fixed.

I never said useless. I said misused. I'm not challenging the intent, I'm challenging the usage. And I didn't say anything about underused tags.
And my point in pointing out tag edits was that hes mostly talk and little action in this discussion. He claims to have fixed the "feeding" tag? The 5 examples I listed above seem to disagree.
If he had fixed the tag, yeah fine. "I was aggressive, I was rude and you've proved me wrong. I apologize." I'm not above recognizing my wrongs and apologizing. But he didn't fix the tag and tried to lie about it, so as far as I'm concerned he's just trolling me.

JusticeItEasy said: post #23566 and post #15131 are pretty much feeding, the parents are feeding them.
You said you read poweryoga's post. You obviously didn't. You lied. I'm outta here.
yukiyuzen said: You said you read poweryoga's post. You obviously didn't. You lied. I'm outta here.
I read that as someone giving the Yukkuri or Pet Food, others yukkuri included, i may had been mistaken in my interpretation, but i still think that Feeding should be for the general act of someone feeding other.
Call me lier as much as you want, but please, fix your attitude, you aren't making anybody a favour by being so antagonistic and agressive to anything you don't like of OYP.
Since this discussion is pretty much over, and i rather not leave wasteful walls of test behind, i'm gonna erase my comments and leave only the first one and this one as part of my new policy of "Discussion that doesn't go anywhere and is anything but productive or fun? erase, don't leave clutter behind".
I didn't think much of the difference between feeding and eating at first, but after seeing a few conversations about it I use eating for well, anything eating- yukkuris eating or people eating yukkuris, etc. and feeding for yukkuris specifically eating.
Notice that though adults can survive under room temperature, the kos' dough cannot insulate the heat well. They may melt when the room temperature get above 20 degree (Celsius). Therefore it's recommended to raise the kos in fridge or styrofoam box. Ice cubes made of sugar solution.
TL note: Well, normally, freezing sugar solution doesn't yield sweet ice. As water freezes, pure ice crystals are formed and sugar molecules are excluded from the crystals. Ultimately there should be only pure ice and a little concentrated sugar solution.
One way to make such ice cubes is to chill the solution very quickly, such that sugar is traped in the matrix of ice crystals. Another way is to continuously stir the freezing mixture to make a slurry, just like Slurpee.
Oh well, my head is filled with paste called chemistry; forget that. Any suggestions on shortening the term 'ice cubes made of sugar solution'?
*Sweetened Ice Cubes?*Happiness!Munch~munch~Of course, adult Cirno is also available. Depending on place of origin and age, price is at around NT$200 to 800.I'm genius!Koyukkuri Cirno sold in pet shops are one- to three-weeks old. Priced at NT$60~80.
As the artist is from Taiwan, it should be New Taiwan dollar.
US$1 ~ NT$32.8 ~ HK$7.8
I included Hong Kong dollar not only for reference, but also because I'm a Hongkonger.Yukkuri Cirno is readily available as a result of mass-import, but raising it well is another story. Now, let's check out how to raising it properly and what has to be aware of!Basically, ko-Cirno can be fed with typical pet-yukkuri food. But it's always better to feed them with ice made of sugar solution.Styrofoam box for raisingYu! I'm clever!Basics of raising (I)
