Tagging Notice by Myan

While I understand and even appreciate that creators/users can be notified when others add to your tags, but while we are without the option to approve outside tags or turn off the ability for others to add them, it would really make me feel better when there's a time someone decides to add onto your tags, they'd at least personally notify you before they do it and give a reason why. Or another idea is asking to add certain tags if you're not comfortable adding in tags on your own.

Otherwise, the person's tags you're editing, they don't know if you're doing it for searching reasons, blacklisting reasons, being real petty somehow or anything.

Until then, it's pretty intrusive, even in cases that someone assumes they're helping. I know there's people who don't care either way, so of course this applies to those don't feel all that comfortable with randos slapping additional tags you may or may not want on your stuff.

With all that said, if you happen to feel some stuff really needs certain tags for good reasons, talk to me. I'm all about being understanding and talking things out.

    I know you can prevent other users from removing tags you've made on your submissions in profile settings but I don't know if it stops others adding their own personally I feel like tags should be left up to whoever is uploading the image to decide. But ywah I've heard of instance ms of folk editing tags to be a pain in the arse :T personally I leave other peoples tags well alone.

      Yeah, that's basically the bare minimum amount of 'protection' with tags; you're unable to stop people from adding yet removing is a no-no. For whatever reason(s), Weasyl has yet to just allow more options, so until then you're stuck while people come by and slap on tags they think belong there. I can go back and remove them, but I honestly shouldn't have to all because people feel they can just touch your property without a word.
      I definitely appreciate that you have enough consideration to not bother people's tags on your own, though so thank you u w u

    You're welcome!. think it's just basic common decency not to mess around with them. There used to be a guy on FA who'd harass people to change their tags or the maturity ratongs of their uploads if they wern't how he felt they should be. He eventually got banned and I'm glad he doesn't seem to have shown up on weasyl.

      Haha, with the way so many people tend to be, just basic decency isn't even as common as some are led to believe. Oh wow....that's very troublesome and asinine, to boot. I'm glad they haven't shown up around here either. Such a controlling, self-important person probably doesn't belong on the net, let alone any art sites.

      No worries, it's cool~! ' u ' )/ I have a lack of feedback in general on anything anyway, so I'm more than grateful for anyone taking the time out to comment on any of my journals of all things. lol

        TBH I need to take a look through your gallery here properly at some point. I don't really use FA at all these days for variious reasons but I've seen one or two of your pieces pop up on twitter I think and I dig how you draw certain content and you have some rather cool looking OCs.

          Lol that's fine. I usually cross-post from FA to here anyway and sometimes there's things posted here that I may not put on FA. Although Weasyl is really quiet, I don't plan on abandoning it soon. Lol oh wow, really? XD I know I've had some stuff on twitter that circulated a bit, but I didn't think anyone who watched me here would see it.
          And oh gosh, thank you very muchhh~ <3333 I appreciate that lots > u <)b
