Website Proper filtering of upscaled items.

I cannot discover new mods through this site without a lot of effort because of the countless upscales that cannot be entirely filtered out of the "Gear" category. Even excluding every single tag with "upscale" doesn't remove the people who don't bother to add an upscale tag of their own volition. I've begun blocking individual creators who upscale items in an attempt to filter the results to be only "original" mods so I don't have to click through 8 of 9 results per page being duplicates of one of those "original" mods. I usually only ever purposefully seek out upscales by searching for it by name and never have found a use for browsing upscales when looking for individual new gear pieces.

Adding a main "upscale" category or somehow encouraging adding upscale tags would be helpful in making mods much more easy to discover.

The two screenshots attached show every tag with "upscale" in the name added to "Excluded Tags" and then search results directly below it from creators that failed to use any of the tags, showing that even my best, most "extra" efforts are still not enough to avoid upscaled results. (For the sake of screenshot I added the tags in the search, I have them excluded in my profile.)

Thank you for your great work with this site + plugin <3
