Final-Fan said: I mean, seriously. Take, for another example, that guy who just asked for one yet only has 25 posts -- this is LITERALLY everything he ever posted prior to that request:
[25 not so quotable posts eliminated.]
What do you do with that? "In that world would pigs fly?" is maybe kinda decent, but that's it. (His original account luckduck has an amazing 129 post total, I doubt that's much better.) |
FinaL-Fan, I thank you for summing that up for me. More peope should read the OP where I stress that POST HISTORY is the key to making an interesting TAG.
Legend11 said: Horrible idea... May as well just change the website name to NeoGAF if we're going to add tags like that. |
On other websites there's a common practice of giving "tags" for regular forum members. Some of the tags seem to be complimentary, others more descriptive and some are derogatory. My perception is that they add some depth to the community. I don't think VGChartz is going to have tags but I was musing on what some of them might be if they did exist, i.e.:
