Forum tags should be user created

[raven2k01]

When posting in the forums I went to tag post such as UI, mechanics, audio, etc.  However your tags are very primitive.  They only allow a user to specify the system (PC, PS4, etc)
Instead you should allow users to create custom tags for topics.  Then when another user goes to type that same tag name (ie UI) it would auto populate and sort the topic appropriately in a sub queue.

This makes it easier for both the players and the developers to sort for specific tags and find topics or issues.

or.... novel idea.... post your N type Thread in the section designated for it.

Not when everyone a) makes their own tags and b) probably won't tag things thoroughly enough.

Custom tags? No.  People would do tags for "Har Har Octoviea sux" and "Simulr Nurfffed!!!" There'd be no way to manage them all properly.

A bigger variety of tags? Yes.  I had a similar idea a month ago

Basically just tags for everything pre-made.

Inb4 the hashtag tags arrive.

So you people would rather there not be any tags at all?

Instead there could be common tags setup.
A simpleton way of doing this would be to add a feature to suggest a tag.
That way only reasonable tags with high numbers of common hits would be added to the list.
It's not rocket science.
