(why don't we have an 'awesome' tag?)

Because people would use it incorrectly because they are special snowflakes and of course their thread is awesome but in fact it is quite lame.

This thread, though? Totally awesome.

Here's my thought on an awesome tag... Why not create tags that only Moderators can apply? Something like the gold/silver/bronze of thread tags. And not something that keep our mods running around the place, applying only once in a while, for very special threads.

(You might even consider an epic fail tag.)

Just a thought.

I'm thinking that one'll be veto'd almost immediately by Meister.

We're actually half-heartedly talking about that but I think we more or less all agree that it's best to keep the tags a fun little addition with no official serious rules attached (except "use one"). Also pretty sure we won't ever include anything that's based on the words "epic", "fail" or "win."

e: I wouldn't say this is a "veto" as much as "making an educated guess about what the others might say, based on my estimations" but I couldn't in good conscience say I wouldn't veto the heck outta that.

Because we haven't found a way for the forum software to allow us to do it.

Fenris' post makes sense in response to both SWB and to Nikose.

That's only because you haven't thrown enough rocks at it. :)

You know what would be awesome? Putting up an Slater-related or otherwise. Whatev! tag, and then, not worrying about the awesome tag.

You know what isn't awesome? Talking talking talking talking talking talking talking talking talking talking talking talking talking talking talking talking talking about the awesome tag.

I contend that they haven't been kicking it enough. Kicking machines always fixes them.

It's science!
