Not sure if this is a problem or not, but the "today's top image searches" is flooded with "NIGGER" and "Ed Balls" repeated over and over again. Last I checked there aren't any images with these specific tags, and it looks like someone just tried to flood the search with it to bring it to the top.
(NIGGER NIGGER NIGGER was here for a while, Ed Balls started early this afternoon). What do?

Eh people are having fun; no harm done, for the lulz you can post a image with those tags if ya want :3.
The admins recently installed a system to keep track of who's conducting the searches. If users continue abusing the system they'll end up getting warned for spamming and hopefully cease doing so.

Yeah, I don't think that messing around with the searching feature should be considered as something "fun" to do.
