Sorry to be annoying but I don't see the option on the top editing tools or the bottom threadmark/thread submitting options when I edit. Is it a code I add to the post? Or something that shows up after you click "save"?Simply editing the 1st post of the thread should allow to add a tag to it!
How about just having "LIVE", for anything that's playing Live (can be a political live feed or something), and turn it off when it's over?Live Stream (for user-run livestreams, would get turned off when not running)
Seems workable. We'd want to try and limit most threads that could go live to 3 tags.How about just having "LIVE", for anything that's playing Live (can be a political live feed or something), and turn it off when it's over?
Can talk to the tech team about if it's possible/feasible to implement that natively but it'd be a different system than the tag one. Could always do a Trump tag, but he comes up in a LOT of threads, even ones that aren't explicitly about him. And in the same way, other sensitive topics come up in threads that aren't strictly about them.
I do like the idea, though. It'd be a good way to support members with traumas who want to take a really rigorous approach. I dunno how technically feasible it is, and I am still worried about misuse, though it might be worth it anyway.
Deals and Reviews are must haves for gaming side imo
Thanks for the post and for adding options. It's very appreciated. I also really like that more tags are planned to being added; that will definitely increase their usefulness.
A suggestion: I don't know if it's feasible, but an option to remove tags from the Alerts dropdown would be welcomed. Because nothing there is aligned, the purple dots scattered around causes the same visual distraction as having them at the front of thread titles. It's not as big of an issue as when they were at the beginning of titles, so I'll understand if it's something that just has to be lived with, but I would be very grateful if there was an option to hide them there, too.
Already on the list!

Eminem (do we really have that many of these?)
TLOU/Naughty Dog (reluctant here, because thread gluts around game releases are just something that happens - if it's still a perennial discussion point after some time's passed, like Star Wars is, we can revisit, I think)
My one thing with a tag called "opinion" is that it sorta leaks into other threads we have that're just... the user's opinions. Feels like that kind of thing can get covered by the title and the absence of a news tag.I want to say thank you for creating this thread and listening to the feedback of members. I enjoyed the tags from the get go, but I really like that they're under the thread title now. At this point, we need more tags (which you guys are working on) and more colors or neutral colors for the tags. I know purple is part of the color scheme for the site, but some hues of purple hurt my eyes or don't mesh well with dark mode.
Honestly all of these tags (except Eminem and TLOU/Naughty Dog) should be added. Most of these hit the general topics.
Here's some more to possibly add:
Art
Programming (could fall under the Help/Advice tag)
Giveaway (used for one off giveaway threads outside of the main giftbot thread)
Tech News (this could be useful if we decide to get rid of the general News tag)
Opinion (for things that aren't really news, website opinion pieces. Perhaps there's a better name for this tag?)
I think that's all I have for now. I'll make another post if I can think of more, but I think the initial list is really good.

?Any way to save the prefixes used? It resets if you browse to another part of the site.
.label {padding: 0px;}
.label.label--primary,.label.label--silver,.label.label--prefixGradient {
color: #8f65c7;
background: transparent;
border-color: transparent;
font-size: 100%;
}
a.label.label--primary:hover, a:hover .label.label--primary {
background: transparent;
border-color: transparent;
}
a.label.label--silver:hover, a:hover .label.label--silver {
background: transparent;
border-color: transparent;
}
a:hover .label.label--prefixGradient
{
background: transparent !important;
}
Another idea we were kicking around that we're not 100% sold on is a [sensitive] tag that could serve as a guideline for discussion and potentially a content/trigger warning. The issue here is, on one hand we want to make sure people can filter out content that's bad for their mental health, but we don't want it to be an asset for the "No PoLiTiCs In My GaMeS" crowd.
This is excellent. Thank you!If anyone wants to adjust the colors, it's actually pretty easy to do with the browser extension Stylus. (sorry for the light theme)
Code:.label {padding: 0px;} .label.label--primary,.label.label--silver,.label.label--prefixGradient { color: #8f65c7; background: #8050bf00; border-color: #673ba100; font-size: 12px; } a.label.label--primary:hover, a:hover .label.label--primary { background: #7543b700; border-color: #5e359200; } a.label.label--silver:hover, a:hover .label.label--silver { background: #7543b700; border-color: #5e359200; }
The background / border-colors are just transparent there, but you can change them to whatever fits your theme. I'm having a bit of trouble figuring out how to change the hover on OT, but I'll get there eventually.
