    (Partially) fixing the tag system

    Update: Many bugs I found in the testbed regarding Synonyms and merges replicate in the main forum, and some break tags. I initially had the attitude of ‘it’d be nice, and a massive timesaver, if we had a hard-merge option, but if it looks like it’s going nowhere I’ll just go back to doing...

    (Partially) fixing the tag system

    I can absolutely keep a list of all the Synonym groups updated, but I’m not entirely sure I understand the utility you’re pointing at. In regard to search, it doesn’t matter whether they use the Canonised suggested tag or a Synonym for their thread. Could you explain more?

    I will in a future batch. You can check if something has been mentioned yet by looking to see if it's included in the lead list at the bottom of the OP.

    A way to sort thread by most recent 'like' given

    Rather than using Likes as a proxy to find good older stories, it'd probably be better to directly have a 'between X and Y date'/'before X date'/'after Y date'. Then you could filter by replies, Watchers, Likes, latest activity, etc, within that period.

    Penalty for not disclosing ai work

    ...this discussion, but it doesn't really matter that they're having it here, in a place with a more narrowly focused OP. If anyone is fed up with the discussion, because it isn't going to affect moderation, or they’ve seen all the talking points before, they can just not read the thread. *shrugs*

    Penalty for not disclosing ai work

    People are understandably passionate about this topic, but bring the heat down a tad. I don't think anyone has crossed the Rule 1 line yet, but a few posts are making me look twice, so let’s work to prevent any further degeneration.

    Penalty for not disclosing ai work

    Trying to witch hunt AI in a story thread is already against the rules - specifically Rule 1 - and we Warn posts that do so. If they do it enough times, we'll move to escalating punishments. Though, there is a difference between asking if something is AI/politely asking the author to add such a...

    You can modify your alert settings in your preferences, near the bottom. I don’t think we have a ‘only threadmarks’ option, unfortunately, but you can reduce it to only OP posts.

    (Partially) fixing the tag system

    You're not going to be happy about this answer either, but unfortunately not. See previous discussion: The idea being, while yes, 'yuri' and 'lesbian' both involve same-sex relationships between females, they carry different connotations and tropes, and so can look distinctly different in the...

    (Partially) fixing the tag system

    Update: Aleth has a testbed spun up for this add-on, and I’m doing a bunch of experiments on it so they can fix any bugs before putting it on the main forum.

    (Partially) fixing the tag system

    So another way of saying 'dense'. That seems like something people might want to exclude while still searching for 'lesbians', so will keep that separate, but link all the variations together. Edit: Actually, just gonna merge all the variations together.

    (Partially) fixing the tag system

    Assuming a parent/child tag system is developed at some point, that would allow us to link specific tropes (or proportion indicators) with the related broader tag, in a way that allows searching/excluding narrowly or broadly. If we did have that, I'd be linking a lot more things. But we don't...

    (Partially) fixing the tag system

    That's kinda what I was thinking, so will keep that as a stray. Also reminded me to actually add the erotica stuff to the list.

    (Partially) fixing the tag system

    I moved the tags like 'pure smut' and 'just sex scenes' to the Synonyms of 'smut' rather than the merge groups, because they do convey useful information on second thought. Was idly thinking about making them their own group, actually, so the tiers would be something like 'porn without plot'...

    (Partially) fixing the tag system

    Unfortunately, I don’t have the answer to such a deep question. Because they’re different tags, and not yet Synonyms. I’ll be making them Synonyms during this batch though, so excluding one will exclude all after I’ve done so.

    (Partially) fixing the tag system

    I mean, it’s less that other staff didn’t think it was necessary (or at least cautiously beneficial), and more that it’s a lot of work. Like, a lot a lot of work. I’ve basically stopped looking at normal reports since I started. What to do with tags has been discussed, somewhat lengthily...

    (Partially) fixing the tag system

    In the hypothetical scenario that I’ve disappeared or moved on, the thread would still be here, yeah. Whether anyone else would have the time and inclination to take over, idk, but, if not, staff might recruit for this role specifically.

    (Partially) fixing the tag system

    The feedback period is technically over, but I’m hopeful Aleth will have the hard-merge add-on ready by tomorrow, so I’m waiting till that’s done before starting.

    (Partially) fixing the tag system

    I can’t implement that, but I’ll put it in the suggestion box.
