Some kids aren't allowed to play with sharp sticks really.

RIP, "dumbingo" tag I created. You served your purpose well.

I'm sort of sad to see them go. Yeah, there were abused, but when used legitimately they were useful. Case in point: the other day I clicked on a John Carpenter tag and spent some time reading old posts about John Carpenter movies and had a whale of a good time.

Yeah, the novelty of the insults was wearing off already. They were only there for what? A week? Give it a little more time and they will be legitimately useful.

I agree that they could be useful. I say bring them back.

Bring them back but only let mods and the thread creator post them.

Which wouldn't help with the older threads, since many of those thread starters are gone. And I doubt the mods want to comb through them.

I'm the one that did the Iggy Wonders tag, I also did the Cronenberg and the John Carpenter tags. Kind of dissappointing that those are gone, but I suppose legitimate tags were not the majority.

Whatever. I don't need no tag system to call you out on it. Here...

Poop-eater! Moltisanti's a poop-eater, I say! POOP-EATER!

Ya know Devildoubt, you've always left a bad taste in my mouth.

I can't believe the tags were pulled because 3 or 4 people got their panties in a twist. If those guys were going to quit the forums, they would have found some excuse. Were the tags really the last straw? Thin skin......

First, I don't know if that's really what pushed people to leave. I haven't dug and really don't care. Second, it would seem just as likely that tags were pulled because people were acting like retarded preschoolers on a sugar high with the tags which quickly became 95% useless. Give people an extra layer of anonymity on this board and they will abuse it every time.

As long as there was 1 proper tag they were useful indeed.

If only there was some way to get back at him... Dammit! Where did the tags go!

And how many threads had 0 useful tags, and yet were maxed out on tags? Why do things like this come as a shock to people?

In time the gag-tags would have died down. Probably would have been useful down the road.

I just hope the social groups remain intact. Don’t think I can get back my deposit on those Pussy Poppin Playaz bowling shirts I had commissioned.

Some of the tags seemed boarder line stalking. If I had to guest I would say that was why they were pulled.

Wouldn't that kind of defeat the purpose, though? If they were intended as an aid to the search function, I'm sure others besides the thread starter would want to tag threads they wanted to reference later. I know I repeatedly have dug the "Crisis on Infinite CHUD Boards" thread out of mothballs, for example.

And thank you, Jack. You are most kind.

Tags are fun, I say bring them back.

Well, the insane levels of drama made for entertaining reading while they lasted. I'd like to see the tags come back, I think the stupid would have (mostly) settled down but I'm really not surprised they're gone.

Like Iggy said though, they wouldn't work then. Sure, for new posts, yay, but all the old stuff? The search function is messed up as far as older threads.

I thought tags were great, and that the people posting dumb shit would eventually slow. Great job Jack Dnim, sucks you wasted time tracking down some hard to find threads. I was slowly chipping away at some actors and directors myself.

Oh for christ sake the boards worked perfectly well without them, we had them for a week and they were a disaster, why exactly do we need them back?

We need them back to make searches easier.
