M2 Announcement: Proper use of tags

[arlubas]

We have been discussing the issue of tags lately on the crew forum and here's what we got. All members don't have the search function apparently. But they do have the ability to search for tags. So it would be appreciated if all of you guys could add tags that would help people find a particular thread mainly by adding tags that describe the content of the thread.

Another thing we would like to touch is that we also will cut down on the flaming/aggressive tags who offend other members or have no relation to the subject whatsoever. Violators will get an infraction every time they add an irrelevant/offensive tag and once they hit 3 infractions they're banned. And yes, we can see who created what tag so don't even bother posting them and "taking your chances" with it cause your chances are non existant at that.

Thanks for reading,
The mod team

PS: Crippa don't sticky this as it gets more views as a normal thread. A sticky will come once this fall on the second page or something.

PPS: To search with the tags simply click here:


PPPS: The tag search is auto completing sorta. So if you type ko it will show you everything starting with KO.

Good idea to help the forum, even though you must admit some of the irrelevant tags were funny..lol.

They were hella funny and they will still be allowed in the VIP section but if we want people to get valid results when they search for a particular topic we just can't allow all those random ones taking place.

Good thing there still allowed in VIP. I like the foolish ones.

Good idea for the broader side of M2 though.

Why don't the "new" members have the chance to use the search function? In my eyes, this is senseless as can be, I will never understand, it just makes it difficulter for people...

Don't know if I'm missing something or if Lubes is. I was under the impression that no one had the search function at all on this site, with the exception of staff. Didn't matter how long you were on this site.

Can people here confirm?

Also, another lol at the Crippa disclaimer

That's it, I never said older members had the search function and younger ones didn't. The only ones that have it are the mods and UP members as far as I know. Maybe even the blog writers but that's as far as it goes, no one else has it, not even VIPers.

You said this, though:

New members don't have the search function apparently.

Anyway, us bloggers don't have the search function either.
