Is this a really douchey thing to do? It's just been suggested to me that this is a good way of keeping track of your own threads, since we temporarily don't have a saved thread feature, but at the same time, even my inner attention whore (well, let's be honest...my outer attention whore) cringes at the thought of tagging every single thread I make with "#jaythenerdkid", as though I myself am always my only topic of discussion. (EVEN THOUGH I AM RIGHT HOHO)
What do you think? Does this read as a little desperate, or just useful?

Well, you have a post history, so I don't really see the point. As for those "Sapphire" and "RealHarlow" tags which also bare no relevance to the thread, you could probably do away with those by just posting all your threads in the sapphire group and making them public.

4 回复As much as I have seen of it to be self serving / self advertising, I personally dislike the practice. If we get a SAVED THREAD option back I believe the only legitimate reason for doing this would go away.

Well, tags are designed to sort threads so it makes sense to use them to make it easier to find things later. It's the most practical way of keeping track of things until a saved thread feature is implemented (or at least an activity tracker for groups). It is unfortunate that the tag appears in the "trending" section if you do it enough, though. The whole trending section is kind of redundant at the moment because it seems it just has the most recent tags on display.

It's not wrong. People are just thinking about this in the confines of the old forum too much. Certain "restrictions/confines/boundaries" don't exist here. They implemented the tagging system for us to tag our posts with various things.
