The fandom tags were created for organization within the fandom, so it *is* a problem when they're misused.
Update: edited a little to clarify a couple of things.Apparently, some people act like they are the owners of Tumblr and feel like they can dictate how certain tags should be used, even if some of their arbitrary-chosen “rules” go against common sense. ^^’I don’t know if encouraging other people to block you (as a certain Tumblr user is doing against me) is allowed by Tumblr’s policy, and if it can be considered harassment, but I honestly don’t care enough to even seriously make research about this matter.However, when things like this happen they can have positive effects, too, since you see people’s true colours and if they actually are your friends.I’m a patient person and I rarely get angry, but I don’t easily forgive and, mostly importantly, I don’t forget. And I can’t waste my time with people who aren’t worth it.Sorry for reblogging this, but some among my followers may be wondering what’s going on, albeit it’s something so nonsensical that I wonder how this even became an issue to begin with. -__-’Good night (or morning, for some of you). :)
The “problem” is that I don’t like how some of them are used to begin with, and I’m part of the fandom as much as everyone else so I will bend and even try to change those “rules” when they don’t fit my necessities.My way of using the “opfanart” tag is more rational and efficient, in my opinion (and I already explained why), so I’ll stick with that until I’ll find an even better solution in the future. And I’m still organising my own blog anyway, so please consider the tags of my posts/reblogs not final.Also, I’m starting to wonder if you send asks to every person in the fandom who uses tags much more freely than me (I saw any kind of use for them, so I know what I’m talking about).Not that I care: each person is basically free to use them as they like–that’s part of the fun too (albeit I personally prefer when they make at least a bit of sense).Anyway, “rules” like these aren’t set in stone, but created to eventually be improved. For example, having two different tags (“opfanart” and “opgraphics”) for fanarts isn’t practical and even a bit conflicting, but I don’t go around messaging people to tell them how they should tag.If you don’t personally like how I use tags, I think you won’t see my posts and reblogs anymore upon blocking me (I’m not sure about this, though–I’m still relatively new here).The bottom line is: I’m sorry you don’t like how I use tags, and I’m also grateful for your honest opinion, but I’m free to use them as I prefer–in my own blog–as long as they don’t go against Tumblr’s rules.Please try to understand my point of view, too. :)I’m still smiling about this… “argument”, but my smile could turn into Doflamingo’s kind if you keep bothering me about this (in other words: I don’t like blocking people, so please don’t make me do that; you’re free to block me though, I won’t mind).I’m posting this reply publicly too to let my followers know that I’m using tags this way intentionally. That said, there are still old posts and reblogs of mine that I need to edit, so I could add or remove tags from them.If you’ve better solutions to use tags more efficiently than how I already do, though, feel free to send me suggestions any time. :)
