As part of the move to vBulletin 3.8.2 you can now tag threads when you create them and also tag threads that have already been created.
The tagging system is similar to what is used on sites like Flickr where certain keywords particular to a thread (or Blog) are entered and allows users to search for threads (or Blogs) which have the same keywords. It allows you to find similar threads easily or lets you do more reading on a particular topic (tag).
How do you use it?
When posting, simply enter a few tags below the post body text (you'll see it directly underneath where you type your message). Just pick a few keywords related to your thread. Furthermore, people browsing your thread can add tags if they think it needs a few more relveant tags.
Tag abuse
Tag abuse is taken seriously and where we find people abusing it, we will issue infractions (with a possible banning) and also name such users. It happened in the past when we first tried to implement it so rest assured I won't be taking any abuse lightly.
Tag abuse will NOT be tolerated.
