Exclamation Abuse the tagging system, lose your tagging privileges

Some of you have been tagging blogs and threads with nonsensical or completely unrelated tags. Starting now, those who abuse the system will lose the ability to use it.

Yes, we track tag submitters. You are not anonymous.

Aw.

Is this an infraction-esque loss, or permanent? Are they contestable?

That wasn't really directed at you, but, eh...

Nothing to do with infractions. They are permanent and not contestable.
This thread acts as the warning.

I did no such thing. I spelled it correctly.

I guess my privileges got taken away before I got a warning. That's pretty cool.

I'm glad to see the OP can remove some tags manually. I saw one which I felt was inappropriate in my Naruto: Ultimate Ninja Storm thread which said "game everyone hates", so I just removed it (I didn't really hear anyone HATE the game, just someone might have wanted to start trouble). I mean, I've seen worse tags, but felt it wasn't needed.

Thank goodness. I was wondering about this, since I've seen a bunch of threads with completely pointless tags. Thanks Cheapy.

That's on the level of kids forum mods not having a problem with goatse images in threads.

It's inappropriate, immature, and since I'm guessing the tags are searchable, you're screwing with the system.
