    I think the tags are a really good idea but they aren't displayed that well in my opinion. They crowd the title and generally make the index messy looking. I was wondering if they could be only displayed within the thread or search or perhaps a popup when you mouseover an icon....

    Once again... since I use the new posts button - Tags don't really do much for me. :(

    I second the OP, or I guess it's already been seconded but I agree.

    I think a lot of people use it as a means to act childish and tag the threads with stupid shit.

    According to the General section right now, you're right.

    Thank God it looks like they've been turned off

    I didn't turn the function off but only the thread starter can tag the thread they started...for right now. If we need to kill the function, we will.

    I was just wondering if anyone can please explain to me what the reason for putting tags on a thread would be.
    I am guessing that they are html that you can add to your title for a broader search spectrum. Please correct me if I am wrong.

    You're right, it's just to help people find your thread if they're searching for similar topics AFAIK.
