[Admin] New Rule on Contributor Tags

[1miracle]

Even after overhauling our tagging system, we're still currently running out of tags. We've used 1,083 out of the 1,200 limit. And because of this, we've decided to modify our tagging rules a bit.

New rule (this applies mostly to new posters): From now on, only authors and artists who have made at least five (5) posts in the community will get

Comments

Random idea that might help.

In the community, slashatthedisco, one thing that the mods did was create a section of memories for every author. So instead of author tags, they just saved them under that category. So if anyone had to look for a particular author, they simply went through the memories of the community.

In case you come across a problem with the limitation on number of tags again, you could try this method of keeping track. You could simply keep the general tags like genre, rating etc, and just create memories for the authors.

I don't know if this will help, but just an idea.

:D

Thank you for the info. We'll definitely keep this in mind. :)

Is there a way to get more tags or is that an LJ limit?

[1miracle]

Unfortunately, it's an LJ limit and so we can't get more tags. Unless, of course, LJ decides to increase the number of tags for Plus and/or community accounts.

Hello hello! I've officially made five posts in this comm (This Man's Army one and two, A Brilliant Idea, Chicken Soup for the Wizard's Soul, and Somebody to Love), so yes. Contributor's tag, please?

[1miracle]

Thanks for the heads up. I created a new tag for you and also added it to your existing posts. :)

I just made my fifth post. May I have a contributor's tag, please? You will also be pleased to know that I have actually READ the guidelines, not just skimmed them like I did before. Apparently, I miss a lot of stuff when I skim. When you get the chance, of course.

Hi! Can you please give me the links to your 5 posts? In my tally, you've only made 4 so far. Unless you posted a pic spam which we do not count as part of our posting requirement.

Thanks so much!

[sugah66]

Sure. I had S1 animations, 2x06 icons, 2x04 icons, 2x07 icons, and 2x08 icons.

Somehow I missed your second post. *headdesks* LOL!

Thanks for providing me with the links. And I just created a new contributor's tag for you. I already added them to your posts as well. :)
