Suggestion Custom prefixes?

[Sunstone]

It'd be neat to have custom prefixes for role pays, for example if I want to find a fandom rp based off of the hunger games books, I could look for the "hunger games" prefix. Also, I know that's what tags are for but it'd be neat to have a colorful prefix in the title.

That is what thread tags are for.

The last sentence of my post?

Here, let me elaborate.

Adding a custom prefix feature would be disastrous. Do you know how many variations of 'The Hunger Games' alone there would be? 'The Hunger Games', 'the hunger games', 'Hunger Games', 'teh hunger games', etc. The prefix system would be too disorganized. You would be better off just using the tag feature. We don't need a colorful flag for every roleplaying subject. The fandom world alone is ever growing. The point of prefixing would just die. Plus, I don't want to have to moderate that.

Additionally, adding new prefixes to the forums is not the same as making a custom prefix for your conversations. It is a mechanical process that someone has to actually do in the back end. It's not a simple 'enter and save' kind of process.

Tags are much easier to use overall. There's no need to replace them/ add a feature which is literally the same thing when it already works perfectly fine.

Alright, thanks for elaborating!
