I dont think tags are being used properly, Iv noticed a lot of offensive tags being published which is usually not needed

People are getting called names/picked on/bullied even! And its all anonomous which is the sad part

Can the mods do somthing about it like have the tags filtered so swear words etc wont come through?

If tags make you cry you need a slap.

There was a vote on here as to wether they should stay anonymous or have the name of the user when you roll over them (which can definately be done, ive seen it on other forums running VBB) and it was decided that people preferred them being anonymous.

Tags are a waste of time on this forum.

They just make extra work for the moderators and reduce the sites bandwidth.

Too many mongtard cowards hiding behind them too ..lol

Too many people take this forum far too seriously, that is my point!

I just glance over them and then disregard them.

if you are victimised in a tag or find one offensive then report it ..
if offensive tags are fond the offender is noted and if consitantly doing so they will be removed from the forum..

whilst some find it comical others do not appreciate comments aimed at them or about them...

the mod team take the forum seriously enough to deal with any issues of internet bullys/keyboard heroes to remove them should they continue to harass any member of the site...

As said some are

Offensive - report it!

Stupid - ignore it!

Bloody funny - appreciate it!

Personally think they are a good thing as if you aren't thick skinned enough just let a mod know

I don't think I remember the vote?

Tags should NOT be anonymous imo, by all means keep 'em, but let the 'hard men' be seen........

I think it's amusing that Internet Brands own both Passionford & VBulletin nowadays, so if any of the mods turn round and say it can't be done they are talking bollocks.

They are too busy releasing dodgy updates that cause security problems on forums rather than implementing new changes.
