Title: How do you get a tag?
Post by: The Sceneman on January 03, 2007, 02:41:24 AM
Ive been posting on these gaming forums like GAF and Evilbore for a little while now... but I dont really understand how you earn tags. Sexual favours?

At gaf I one time said Fuck you EGM. That was my tag. later, I defended Shenmue and earned a "Lookin' for Sailors" tag. And i was really really happy with that one.  :-[ :-[ :-[

btw, at GAF, the mods only seem to give you tags if you post something really stupid, then they give you a demeaning tag.

either that, or you're in their little circle jerk of e-friends.

at Evilbore... you just have to be super cool and ask someone. But you have to be super cool.  I think you qualify.

Yep Error Macro is right, all you really have to do is ask.

Once you hit 2000 posts, though, you have complete control over your tag.

I'm sure the mods do notice.  It's just that it's only admins that can give tags.  I wish I could tag people.

Oh, you mean when he makes those corny ass threads that tell people to beg for tags?  Forget that noise.

Some of the mods there are okay - White Man rox, of course - but the admins?  Fuhgeddaboutit.

edit: sorry about the GAF bitching, but the tag thing always seemed really, really stupid to me.

Yep.  Just be polite and hope that you catch him on a day in which he has free time.

personally, I enjoy the anonymity that "member" offers me. I can participate in any discussion without worry of someone disregarding my arguments by quoting my tag.

You just have to hate everyone. And voice this.

By the way, fuck you guys  :D

At GAF I made an infamous post about getting pens for Christmas '05, and my tag became "Got pens?"

Later, some mod changed it to "Got penis?" ::)
