If you catch it quick you can edit it in. I always forget, but I don't like the yellow text all up in mah grill, so I throw it up once I finish.

Unless I'm the only one that can see it. I put the music tag in my most recent thread about 5 minutes after posting it, so maybe I'm wrong.

Well I guess that answers that question.

I'll look into things to see what I can do to make that happen for you guys.

I don't really know why you even need to tell em you put it in, it's nice and all but the second post being "edited to put tag in" seems almost pointless.

It's a reminder for them to do it themselves the next time they make a thread, at least that's the purpose behind it. Whether or not it works varies from poster to poster.

I rarely make threads, but I usually try to include a tag. I like them.

pochercoaster · 10-10-2010, 03:54 PM

I don't even notice tags. I don't see why all threads MUST have a tag unless we have some option that makes it useful, i.e. viewing threads with only certain tags, (and even then it shouldn't be mandatory) otherwise it's just an image that's barely noticed.

Like it just seems pretty anal. Like if you organized your pantry alphabetically or something and you get upset when something is slightly out of order. We're not robots that break down when one variable is wrong.

I'm going to offer my assistance if it's needed on solving the "not being able to edit the things later" issue. I don't actually mind thread tags and find them pretty useful, but I'm terrible about remembering to include them. Plus, it'll take a load off Fen if we can just go in and change them ourselves.

seil tags are the bestest tags

We should have a Fenris tag to warn people that there are posts in the thread regarding to the former lack of a tag on said thread.

Just sayin'.
