RE: How to use tags 101

in #tags4 years ago

I tag like crazy.

Most of my sins with tagging have been a few times I was slapped on the hand a few times for tagging tribes who poorly communicated their rules. When I think I understand their rules, and then I find out after their downvote and comment I actually misunderstood the rules, I learn from the mistake and move on.

Once in a while I run into people who retaliate for misusing tags because they only want their own politically correct content associated with certain sensitive subjects. I call these people the Tag Nazi's, because they are not open for discussion. I'm all in support of people using tags that have multiple meanings and perspectives. Nobody owns a tag, as far as I am concerned.

Yes, I agree people who use popular tags that have nothing to do with the content of their work should be instructed, not necessarily penalized, to do better.

Would it be bad censorship if we allowed blockchain users to untag posts for clearly misuse of a tag? Maybe that would be too confusing to fairly moderate.
