[meta] Standardizing Tags

[tHEhERETIC]

I know, slightly off topic. Is there a tag standard for the PbP?

Rocket Man has suggested net play.

I just sent an e-mail to the Archangel asking for her assistance. Hopefully I've got the right invocation modifiers. :)

Gah, life adds up and adds up and splat, you've got feathers (mine) smeared all over the Windshield of Life.

Looks like a different mod got to it first, actually.

Edit: Want me to delete any "bump" posts that aren't strictly necessary, for a cleaner thread?

I had to go make a special request...

Welcome back, BTW! Can I hand back the "rules keeper" baton I've been holding (and trying to use even a tenth as well as you do), or will you be tending to business elsewhere soon?

Please do. (There aren't too many of those, actually.)

Another one, at the implied request of ladyarcana55: combat

[ladyarcana55]

Thanks Rob!

I just didn't know where to file that one under...

Let's consolidate everything, shall we?

Categories straight out of the Core Rules:

• angels for discussion of angels. Add a particular Choir name for discussion of that Choir; plurals are prefered.
• demons for discussion of demons. Add a particular Band name for discussion of that Band; plurals are prefered.
• superiors for any discussion about one or more Superiors. Add a specific Superior's name as a separate tag.
• word-bound for any discussion about one or more Word-Bound. Add a specific Word-Bound's name as a separate tag.

Categories out of the Game Master's Guide:

• canon for discussion that follows the Setting As Written.

• setting for posting settings, or links to settings.
• cdau for matters of Canon Doubt and Uncertainty.

Other categories:

• adventure for adventures, adventure seeds, campaigns, plot seeds, and the like.
• character for posting characters.
• fiction for stories set in a world based on IN or with strong IN influences.
• net play for Play-by-Post, Play-by-Email, Play-by-IRC, or any other online IN gaming.

• pop culture for pop-culture references - appropriate music, inspirational fiction or artwork, fantasy movie casts, examples of the various character stereotypes, and so on.
• tips for seeking or giving advice.
• theories for "why?" questions and answers.

Finally, meta for discussion about the forum or the regulars instead of the game.

Looking at the current Crusader's Guilt thread--looking at down-the-line effects of canonical events...tag it theories? canon? Something else like speculation? It isn't playing "what if?" so much as adding canon + canon and getting =result.

Am I making sense at all?
