I've been remiss to say too much as the last time I had anything to say about tags, mk straight up took them away. I figured the fundamental uselessness of personal tags would prove itself eventually without my needing to say a thing.

Stahp. Some people follow some of my personal tags.

Okay, but riddle me this:

Why do you need to blow a tag to make a personal tag?

The fact that you posted it to that tag means that without you doing a thing, I should be able to follow that tag but only if posted by you. That you had to give up a community tag to provide me a benefit that should happen automagically strikes me as a waste.

It's a neat feature to have, I haven't needed it yet, but I can see how they'd be useful. I'm sure I'll follow one eventually.
