Hopefully the "community" tag will make this and similar community-based discussions easier to find on the site!

No I'm not Stalking you I just found this Honest. :-bd

Great to see this before I shut down for the night though. ;)

However if this continues we may find that you are listed on he list of Most Votes up in Discussions. :p

If I hover the pointer on your avatar, it says
Somewhere or
and if I go to your profile the Location is
Other

Nice one. :^0

We have a Community now? :0
58 posts?!? Enough for the Number 1 Blabbymouth place?
And if I stop posting altogether, will others start making negative amounts of posts?

There are tags? Where do we find or use these tags?

edit: And if I click the community tag, which I see only in this thread, the search results are ninety percent irrelevant. I rarely see tags anywhere, and no easy way to use them. So i should start bookmarking tags to search by? https://www.techrepublic.com/topics/community

Does TR know that its search function is worse than ever?

by charliespencer

although I don't know how to use them either. (I don't know how to use them anywhere else, for that matter.)

I selected the community tag when I created this discussion - and it was the first result when I typed "community" (no quotes) into the Search box and selected Discussions as the Content Type. :D

by ansugisalas

List of "related tags" does not include "community".
If the number of tags is finite, and presumably relatively small; why are they not open to access directly? Say, as an alphabetized list of all tags.
TR search is the creature from the black lagoon what's lost it's spectacles!

But most content doesn't seem to be tagged. Where, generically, do you go to click on a tag to pull up relatedly-tagged content?

Wait! I see - you can find "related" tags once you are at a tag page.

edit: Earlier today, when I was in Discussions and searched community, I got a blank page excepting the sponsored whitepaper entry which is always at the top.

But this is what I get if I click the tag:

http://s231.photobucket.com/albums/ee50/NGC224isM31/?action=view¤t=comtag02.jpg

And if I search:
http://s231.photobucket.com/albums/ee50/NGC224isM31/?action=view¤t=comsrch.jpg

So, I guess my mileage varies. :^0 Still, thanks Sonja. :)

I'm sure there were more, I just didn't feel like using the hacks to display more than four comments in the user profile. If the mods can't kill posts by user once alerted to the spam...

Another forum I frequent was hammered with spam in my early AM today as well. Get 'em in before the hurricane, what?

by hal 9000

I've been suggesting to Taminkins to credit Pally with all the Spam that I've reported.

It would drive him nuts so what can I say. :^0

Col 0:-)

by hal 9000

But at least it's still findable if you look.

Now all I have to do is understand [b]What the Hell a Tag is.[/b] :p
