This site is fantastic if you're looking for a hentai fix or sources for anime or Japanese-related images. Gelbooru has an active community and is run by webmasters who actually care to protect their users and keep them coming back. The image base is massive and very diverse. The tag search is user-generated and now has a wiki (which is also user-generated) so you know what you're about to search for or can get more information about what you're looking at. Most of the material is highly pornographic and the addition of any material is allowed, so long as it has SOMETHING to with anime or japanese culture. While lolicon/shotacon images are allowed on the site, real child pornography is taken very seriously by the users and webmasters, and more action than image deletion will be taken by them.

I use this site every day and don't have a single problem with it. I've never been attacked by viruses and if there is a genre of image I don't want to see, I can use the blacklist feature and never see it again, even if I forgot to mark it off in the tag search bar. There is not purposefully any more of one type of material than another on the site. Users post what users want. Pictures are not deleted because of bias, only if they are part of a doujinshi (which you can then search for on TheDoujin.com linked to Gelbooru.com) or if it has nothing to do with Japan or anime.

This site is trustworthy, but definitely not for children. It is an adult site with adult themes and adult users.
