The flood is #flood and #offtopic. Stop making loads of 'official' flood groups, you're just splintering the community.

  • What you're doing is stupid. 'Hurr I wanna be the leader of a popular group despite said forum existing'

  • Click on #offtopic or #flood. There's the flood. The things you tag it with are basically the forums you're posting in. It's just slightly different. All it means is you can post a topic to several forums at once.

  • All it takes for someone to get lost is to use the wrong tags, or not use them at all. Even worse, all it takes for a spammer to spam everything at once is to use tags. The standard format wasn't any more complex. You click the link, there are the threads you want. Just as simple and more organized. If I were storing files on my computer, I wouldn't throw them into a pile and give them each tags. I'd just make folders. I'm not saying that tags are a bad idea, they're a good idea, but forums need more structure. Having tags [i]within[/i] forums would be ideal.

    Actually that's exactly how files are stored on computers, at least in memory. They're heaped together and are referenced by their addresses, and by looking with the right pointers you can dig those files up and display them to the users. The folders themselves are just data constructs with pointers to each file inside of it, and it's all heaped together into one huge interconnected mess. Just as you click on folders to call forth different parts of the total memory heap, you click on specific hash tags to look at specific content.
