Tagging People

Relax RTDH, this is nothing to do with RFID.

I was thinking it might be useful to have the facility to tag other users. Anyone used to playing PartyPoker will know about the ability to make notes on other users. It can be useful for the next time you see them pop up again.

The idea would be that only you can see tags/notes you've associated with other posters. So there wouldn't be an issue with personal abuse.

Pros:

• Mods would find it a handy way of keeping track of the bould boys who haven't quite done enough to merit action but are on the borderline.
• It would make it much easier to see what a posters background is without having to trawl through their previous posts. On certain fora this would be particularly useful.
• Would make it easier to keep track of which moniker Mordeth has been blessed with each week.

Cons:

• Would take effort.
• Might make the site slower.
• Most people wouldn't use them.

I don't know if something similar is available already to mods but I reckon it would be handy.
