Question Tags

Okay, so this has been happening probably since the redesign last year, and I've been to lazy to mention it.

Anyway, when I create a new thread, it gives me default tags based on the title of the thread. Obviously. But when I try to get rid of the ones of those I don't want and add my own, it will literally just add mine to the originals. Even if I do the thing in the editor where you check off boxes. If I uncheck the boxes of the tags I don't want, nothing happens.

Does this happen to anybody else? Is there a simple (or not) explanation/solution for this?

The default tags are there because of the title. Change the title before posting the thread, and the default tags will change with it.

But still, why would you want to not have this as default? A thread's keywords tend to be in the title anyway. (And if they're not, you might want to think about whether your title is the best title, considering the topic.)

That's an intentional setting.

Oh. Okay. Why? I don't understand why we shouldn't be able to customize the tags completely.

Gah, I hate autotags. :Z

They sometimes can be useful, but some of the tags are words that are too general to be put in the tag cloud.

As if you can even SEE those tags in the tag cloud over the word "Zelda"
