I dont see why admin dont just set the tags so that when you hover over them it tells you who has written them, this forum doesnt allow anonymous posting of replies, so makes no sense at all to allow anonymous posting of tags either IMHO

They make me laugh because people can voice their opinion of someone without being known. It's quite sad really, that someone hiding behind a computer has to hide again behind a tag. Are you posting those tags in the dark with your hood up? Just in case.

I'm pretty sure the mods know who posts them, so if there's any abuse etc then punishment can be dished out

Yeah they can see who types any tag but obviously its hard enough for them to manage the threads let alone the hundreds of tags sometimes typed within a thread.

Why? It's funnier when they're anonymous. If anyone takes whats said in the tags seriously, then they need to lighten up, they're a laugh. Just because you get all in a huff if someone calls you a cunt in them, doesn't mean we all do. If you're so sensitive that they actually offend you, report them, or ignore them, simple as that.

I couldnt care less if anyone calls me a cunt, you must have me confused with someone else mate.

If the forum is here to promote anonymous humour, then why not also allow mutliple accounts on the forum? Or allow anonymous posting, the tags seem to be completely out of sync with all the other forum rules.

Fair enough, but at the end of the day, its an internet forum, not RL. It's not like it's the most moderated forum in the world lol, which is why I like it, one of the few forums you can get away with calling someone a cunt, either in a reply, or in the Tags as a joke. Fair enough some people use them to attack others (like when I called lambchop lambcunt, but we won't go into that ) But now I see them as a laugh, and the funnier the tag, the better IMO

My own opinion is that if it could be seen who was posting tags it would increase the number of genuinely funny ones as most people telling a joke like to get recognition for doing so, and I suspect the abusive tags that demonstrate no humour or imagination would probably subside a little.
Given the relatively low number of tags allowed it seems a shame to waste half the allowance on threads simply to call someone a cunt which is pointless anyway.
Plus im inherently nosey like most folk and as we have some really good "tag comedians" in our ranks, and I would be interested to know who they are

TBF, if kosman can put up with the abuse in the tags, and take it as a joke, I think anyone can!

Indeed, but that doesnt mean he wouldnt be interested in seeing who is doing the funnier ones.
you are making out in your replies like you think the only reason to know who made a tag is cause you dont like that tag, surely the main reason to want to know though is when you find a tag funny and want to know who to credit with the humour?

If I'm honest, if people didn't like a tag, and knew who it was, instead of reporting it, like they can now, and having it removed, they'd no doubt attack the 'tagger' on thread, and cause yet another pointless argument/bitch-fest.
I agree with you that if they weren't anonymous, you'd get less of the abuse, due to people not wanting the abuse back...

You know what...i agree and i had actually thought it was a bad idea but i've got nothing to hide and would be no less cheeky in the actual posts. So i agree

I hate writing a good tag that goes un noticed

They need to be disabled as no one uses them properly and just serve to add to bandwidth and server load.

Plus, its one less thing for the mods to check who is leaving insults and hiding behind them.

They are so much better if no one knows who they are from, as far as I know kosman doesn't mind them as he would have prob said something, most of he tags are left buy some of his mates. I know who leave ( . )( . ) and I also know who leaves ((d-.-b)).
But as for being faceless and being nasty to someone that is low, they should have the nuts to say it to them.

I have dished some serious abuse out on them

But I wouldn't think twice about telling the people I abused what I said to their face anyway

Best tags always get removed. Obviously I can't do tags anymore as it's not worth a tenner a year TBH anymore here.
