F95 tagging has specific definitions.
And there is nothing in the game fitting this definition:
As such, It's not a 'quibble'. It just doesn't fit F95s definition.
Gotta call 'bullshit' on the part of your post I highlighted in yellow.
I absolutely hate NTR. Won't play anything with it as a tag.
Which, unfortunately, means I pass over some games I probably don't need to because of how haphazardly the NTR tag is sometimes applied.
There are an awful lot of cases where games get slapped with the (as you pointed out, very divisive) NTR tag when all it should really get is the tag for:
Which I don't give a crap about.
So if games are tagged correctly, players can use the filter to exclude either just NTR (if that's all that bothers them) or the can excluded both NTR and 'Swinging' (If they're in the 'my MCs dick only' group)
Look, we all know, including you, that whenever someone comes into a thread and asks "Is there any NTR?" what they are asking is "Do the chicks do sexy stuff with other characters besides the main character?".
If you know what someone is asking, but then try to answer it in a different way based on how you want to argue the words they use are defined, that is literally the definition of quibbling.
And, since we are quibbling, Sharing and Swinging are also not all inclusive for the tag of LIs doing sex stuff with people who aren't the MC either. Because if you want to go strictly by the definition, those are acts that cover very specific things too. Not 'my MCs dick
only', but instances where couples choose to swap with other couples or bring others as sexual partners into their relationship.
That does not cover cases where:
-The MC is in a casual sex friend relationship (or even just had a casual hookup) with the LI but the LI still has sex and romantic relationships with other characters.
-The MC is trying to get in a relationship with a LI who is sexually active with other characters.
Just a couple quick examples that aren't covered by that tag, but there are more, of course. A problem with the current tag system is that there is NOT a tag for "LIs do sex stuff with people besides the MC". So the NTR tag has been coopted for that purpose by a majority of the people who use this forum. This creates problems for people that actually do want hard NTR (or are only specifically trying to avoid just hard NTR), as not just games with hard NTR get the tag. So they find the tag less useful.
But all of that is why everyone understands that when someone asks, "Is there NTR?", what they are asking is, "Do the chicks bang other dudes?"
And I also understand why devs would want to avoid that tag, as there are a lot of people who filter games based on that tag and they want to avoid people filtering their games as much as possible. But I am in favor of just answering people's questions and going with the flow of forum culture and jargon rather than fighting it. So when someone asks if the chicks do sex stuff with other characters, I'll tell them yes if that is in the game.
