Forum tags

Thats a great idea!  Makes life so much easier.  EA listen to this guy, he has a good many ideas!

I'm of the opinion that they need to revise/revisit the tag system all together, as they just don't work, imo.  At least not as a replacement for Sub-Forums.  I'm in the creative forum trying to see what I want to participate in, but there are no tags by "ideas" or "speculation" and it's all just chucked in there with stories, CAS modeling, Lots, mods (which are supposed to have their own forum) all in a messy pile of ... confusion.

In addition to by pack, they really should have looked a little closer at the types of conversations that people had in the forums and tried to use that to create their tags.

Correction, I just saw an Ideas tag being used.  On one thread.

At this rate, it will be at least one more "season" of Sims releases before this place is actually usable.

Hey everyone, thanks for the feedback. That's exactly what we want to hear.

As the tag feature is new, we are still optimising things. The goal here is to find a way between making things easy to find and easy to use. Our thinking for not including all individual pack names was to not make the list of tags very long. But we are consistently checking and reworking things during this soft launch phase, so this might change over time.

A lot of the imported content from older forums is not tagged at the moment, simply because tags were not used in those forums. We are working on ways to get them tagged retroactively, stay tuned.

Oh and ... fixed the Pack/Packs thing. It should only be Packs now. Please let me know if you still see singular Pack somewhere!

Tags per pack would be useful, but considering how many packs there are it might be a pain to find the right tag. We are going to see a wall of tags on the right.   😅  We need to go back to the Vanilla forums.
