What is a tagger?

If you tag a post (upper right corner while posting) You can search for the topic. You could probably put your username in there and keep track of your posts if you were energetic.

@hennypenny, Tags are keywords which can help us find threads on certain topics when we do a search, much like hashtags.

When you post, you'll see "Message Tags" to the upper right of the box in which you're typing your reponse. You also can click on "Add Tag..." on another poster's comment. Any keywords you enter there (separated by commas) will become "tags."

You can read about them if you look toward the bottom of the column on the left side of the page -- under "Quick Links" choose "Help." Then, again look at the column on the left and under "Getting Started" click on "Tagging."

Hi @Firefly3,

I just wanted to let you know that I removed your e-mail address from your signature line. I wasn't sure if it was intentional or not, so I didn't want to leave it out there for everyone to see.

@cowboy sam, They're similar to using the "like" feature on Facebook... you click on the heart icon in the person's post and basically it's the same as quoting a post and saying "ITA" or something of that nature.

I have mixed feelings about this option. I'd rather see a different icon, but I like the fact that we can let someone know we agree with their post or appreciate it, because it simplifies the thread and eliminates all the quotes and "ITA's" and "thumbs up."

But I say that with an emphatic proviso: I like the option being there within the thread... but not as something to be added to some sort of "tote board" or "leaderboard" popularity contest. I think that's a bad idea.

The public displays of who's tagged the most, or "hearted" the most, or the "contributor" notations make me extremely uncomfortable, and I wish we had the option to opt out of all of those.

If you like someone's post and agree with them, you can click the red heart in the bottom right corner of their post. Then their post will show the heart with the number beside it of how many people have "hearted" their post.
