>>85340428The tag system is abused pretty hard on AO3. Like here are a few of the more ridiculous instances I found through browsing Botan's character tag briefly.

The tags repeat themselves so often for the sake of a minor smidgen of nuance. The one about other tags to be added, well what the fuck does that give to a reader? If you add other tags, I'll see them when you add them. Who the fuck would filter based on that? I think for a platform like there this, too much freedom actually works against it. It almost makes you appreciate FF net's lack of tags and limits, but at the same time they can suck it since they only allow 4 character tags in a fic.
