    Ok, maybe a public voting?

    What if we disable tags? Would you like it or dislike it?

    Click "Like" or "Dislike".

    Sorry to hear that, Xandra. The main focus of the tags is ensuring that users might be able to find related content faster.

    I'll see if the add-on creator would be willing to make it an opt-out system. I realize that's not meeting your demand exactly, but it'd be better than nothing.
     
  4. I agree with Xandra I think they are annoying and useless. Especially when you "have too" add one for a new thread. Just look at the tags in this thread, which one is of any use? I understand wanting to be able to find related information faster but I don't think this is the way to do it. Can't you find related information by using the search box?

    On another note, lol nevermind I just saw what I was going to ask for! Was going to ask for a button to get back to the top of the page cause I hate scrolling back up and I see there is one already there!

    I agree with Xandra. They really are annoying and a total waste of time for users.

    If you really want tags a better way to do it would be behind the scenes so that users don't see any tags or are aware of tags.

    I don't like the way they "ruin" posts. Words get highlighted and just make for a very unpleasant visit to this forum. So much so that I don't visit it so much now...

    The requirement to add a tag has been removed quite a while now :) I'll try and see if I can figure out a good way to clean up the non-relevant tags, and thus be left with only those tags that would add value. I hope that, combined with an opt-in/opt-out system will do the trick to make the forum experience a better one.

    I disabled the tags from showing up in the posts. It is still possible to add tags to a thread, where they will show at the bottom.

    I trust this is an acceptable compromise :)
