    hi
    i've started tagging threads in this forum for ease of use for others especially newbies

    i say this airsoft forum for about a year before i came in i assumed it was some sorta paintball crosased with shooting forum and so i could have spent even more of my hard earned on aegs etc

    i'd would ask in the spirit of community that we tag the threads that are/will be of use to others in the future

    so far:

    airsoft retailer
    airsoft site
    legal airsoft
    airsoft community
    airsoft event

    Good Idea.

    What?

    Are you suggesting that we add keywords to our posts if we believe it's a valuable thread?

    Rabbit are you thick/blind?

    Look between the last post and the quick reply module. In there is a bar called tags. Anyone can edit them. Just add relevant tags to all the major threads to help the noobs if they hit search. Though, tbh, most will google it which brings them here anyways:D

    a bit of a waste of time considering most of the thread titles are self explanatory ie Eirsoft retailer

    No, I'm not thick or blind. No need to be so aggressive.

    I can see the tags now. I never scroll to the 'quick reply' area so I hadn't noticed the tags part. That whole quick reply thing isn't enabled due to the way I have my preferences set.

    not if they have drifted to the second or third page

    it would allow a person to hit the tag and be presented with all the retailer threads
    or sites

    Sorry rabbit, that came out wrong.

    On that point, does quick reply even work? I just get redirected to the full system.
