Limit the amount of hashtags people can put in their Gallery uploads.

Hashtags are one of the best tools to find things on the gallery since there are not enough search options and the ones that exist are very wonky. But it is very annoying that people can just put a million tags on their uploads even when the tags arent relevant just to try and get more attention. When i use #granitefalls , I dont want to see penthouses. Limit it to 5 or 6 hashtags so that people are forced to choose the most relevant ones to their upload.

    That's fair. After I wrote it I started to think that 5 was a little harsh, too.

    I rather have people using a lot of hashtags to seek attention for something than uploading the same thing over and over again. But yes it is certainly annoying when you get a lot of irrelevant downloads when your searching for something in particular. especially since you don't get to see everything that has the hashtag.

    People misusing tags is annoying, but I would hate to see them limited that far. I use the tags a lot when I upload and when I search, so it'd make using the gallery much harder for me. I'd be okay with a limit around 30, though I am happy with the way hashtags work now.

    I agree? It's also frustrating when you're searching for something specific -- say, Salvadorian -- and at least half of everything that's coming up is modern houses or victorian builds. Like? If I wanted that, I'd be searching for it.

    Also, @Sigzy05, you have a pretty Inquisitor icon. : P
