I’ve seen a few new users creating the tutorial tag… do we keep or delete it?

Also, difficulty warning is redundant since we already have difficulty rating systems with teh emojis.

We’ve agreed not to use difficulty warning, actually. And maybe you can add that the off topic tag isn’t there for people to use for their posts, its for marking posts for being off topic :]

Wow, this is good! I made this a beginner-must-read.

Another thought- discouraging new users from using tags, since oftentimes they just make new ones or miuse existing ones.

Only TL3 users can create tags.

The tutorial tag keeps popping up on new user posts no matter how many times I delete it…

2 Likes

Those tags do exist, but a TL3 user orignally made the tag, but it never got used, so the TL0-2 users end up trying to use the tag

Speaking of which, are mods able to remove tags from the autofill thing?
