Wouldn't it be good if we could write our own tags?

Do you guys give youselves your own tags, or does someone else?

just curious.
They're allowed to give themselves a tag.

Though, most of Hitokage and Amir0x's tags suck, so I think that privilege should be taken from them.
 
GoutPatrol said:
If that is a problem, then why don't you just have a "tag approval" process that takes forever, like getting registered?

Dunno. I don't have to deal with any of those issues though (tag creation for people/avatar readjustment/approval process).
 
3 days ago, someone from GAF added me to their friends list. I was wondering why the hell someone would do that, and maybe...JUST maybe....I was getting known! I was overjoyed.

Now I realize it is retarded.

Thank you, aidan, for the few minutes of joy you have provided me.

Now you're just fishing.

And to the admin who gave me my tag, Bravo. That took me a bit to get. :lol

I was hoping an admin would recognise my username from snatch and give me the next line of that movie as a tag.

But alas, no snatch fans here.

4 minutes Turkish...

If your name was Ze Germans I would have given you a tag

I don't think that would be nearly as fun or funny. On the subject of gaf, itself, though:

I really like gaf the way it is, honestly. I just have a hard time finding out why people were banned when going through peoples' post history, and that scares me.I also wish topics could get auto-stickied depending on how old/active they were.

Speaking of stickied, I wish the mods would sticky the NCAA Basketball thread and if not at least be nice enough to say why not.

I'm actually one of these people who hates that any of the sports threads get stickied at all - they're some of the most active threads on GAF. People who post on them know where they are and can access them through their User CPs, so there's no purpose in them being stickied unless the admins enjoy forcing me to scroll past them every single time I check the OT.

Were Stickies reserved for rule changes or announcements that apply to everyone, I'd be a happy man. But then, I don't run the forum.

Only pro sports gets stickied. Amateurs don't deserve stickys.

man you can't get the NCAA stickied until they sticky the world soccer thread.
 
This is a very dangerous game you are playing. The whims of the mods, regarding tags, can change with the speed of a swallow. African or European.

You know you're posting in a legendary thread when you get a Mama Robotnik gif.

I always suspected all GAF mods were short and had gray hair.

Probably an evolutionary off-shoot of some kind. Like man-bear pig, but not as fat.

I'm pretty sure a GAF mod requirement involves neck beards in some shape or form, so yeah man-bear pig fits the profile.

I know Amir0x had a beard shaving video on Youtube at some point that I can't seem to locate anymore...so perhaps you're onto something.

sp0rsk getting fired only corroborates this theory further. I do not recall seeing a beard on that man, just some stubs.

Damn it, there's a difference between Calvin and Hobbes!
Calvin is a smart and deep, but angry, loud, confrontational, and occasionally childish fellow.

Hobbes is a wise, fair, and often sarcastic fellow who only occasionally enjoys being a troublemaker.

I think the shoes fit.

I always imagine the mod team as looking a lot like the Justice League, except with a lot of these moments:

It would never happen in a million years, but as someone may have already proposed, if there was a tag-yourself-and-get-it-approved process, it'd make sense to take the burden off the mods by turning it into a vote that other posters can weigh in on - "do you think this person deserves the tag they want?"

I have no expectation that such a method would ever actually work, but it's fun to think about.

We're gonna start voting on other people's tags? WTF

Christ, stop taking it so seriously. Some people get silly tags at the whim of the people who run this place, the way shit works. If you people can't handle that little bit of anarchy in your life you're in for a long, hard one.
 
My awesome tag was changed to a hilarious tag, and I have no problem with that. My new tag is all kinds of funny. Tags are great.
