They are purely optional, but a helpful way to help people find your topic even if you couldn’t resist a pun in the title.
Please keep tags clean and put jokes in the topic titles. Don’t perpetuate the tragedy of these commons!
The most obvious use is for NSFW topics. Tagging a topic NSFW doesn’t hide it unless a user mutes the tag as explained below – it is just a courtesy for people who want to. NSFW content should remain in The Axe.
They’re also appropriate for content warnings applied to an entire topic but please continue to spoiler or “hide details” mentions of self-harm, self-injury, and suicide on a per-post basis regardless of the thread.
If you’d like to retroactively tag your own threads, please feel free!
To apply a tag, type in the field next to the category on the original post of the topic
This searches existing tags and creates new tags where a match isn’t found.
If the topic list is when I click on say King of Posters and see a list of all the topics then yes, that is exactly where it’d be most preferable for me.
reasonable suggestion. implemented a css component so they’ll still appear at the top of each topic but not on the topic list. might revisit and allow a user group setting but they’re most useful in the tag page or at the top of a topic
may need to refresh a few times esp on mobile to see the effect
