RE: Remember when tags were used to describe content?

[crypticat]

I've been downvoting extreme tag abuse a little lately and don't mind ramping up that game some more. You definetely won't get my upvote if you spam tags. I assume it will become dangerous to spam tags if hf21 arrives and there are free downvotes.

Better to focus on decent content in one community and earn 100s of tokens that get dust from 7 or 8 communities and waste people's time. Posters like these aren't making any friends.

So yes, there is hope, one thing I propose for SPS if it happens is make a tag filter so we can hide these spammers from our searches for relevant content.

Hopefully, although I hope the community accounts get a reasonable amount of work done here too.

Agreed, although many don't seem to understand this.

I suspect we'll be told to mute these people. Bugger, I could be doing this across 10 accounts or more :)
