Why has the Janeway tag been removed from all threads?

When the Borg ate Pluto and absorbed Janeway, her tag was nullified.

I'm wondering how these tag rankings work. I'd say a little more than half the items in the cloud have nothing to do with Star Trek at all.

Does anyone here actually use the tags? I know I don't.

Up till now I had unreasonable thoughts about how this happened.

She was to pretty, shit like that.

but...

You know how janeway was just massive in the cloud.

Twice the size of Starwars and Startrek?

Remember the Y2k threat?

what if instead of her tag count ticking from 999 tags to 1000 tags, it ticked over to 000 tags?

Kathryn has lapped everything and every one!

Your idea is very appealing. Death by awesomeness. But the "babe of the week" and "genre babe of the week" tags were much more massive than the "janeway" tag ever got to, before they were axed.

[Guy Gardener]

So once more Y2K is nothing more than red herring?

All those poor bastards studying applied math for nothing.

[teacake]

Since this thread is still tagged 'janeway' I think the probe droids are not behind this attack.

[Guy Gardener]

What is a more damaging concussive force?

Reentry, sorry... "Entry" from orbit, or blaster fire?

there's no frakking way that thing could be unphased by smashing into the side a planet but blow up when... Chewie and Han were taking potshots, becuase their hand weapons couldn't even get though storm trooper armour.

I liked it on Stargate that they explain how the jaffar staff weapons produces a microwave emission that cooks its target from the inside along side the heat and concussion.

How did they remove genre babe of the week?

If it was a question of size, maybe whatever criteria nixed that, janeway fell foul to too?

If I had admin control, I would have it so that when ever some one tried to publish the words highlander II, would actually would be produced would be "Expletive deleted".

[teacake]

It was removed because it looked tacky on the front page, there was an endless TNZ thread about the threads themselves. I think if it had never ballooned to take over the tag cloud it wouldn't have gotten that attention though.. so maybe size does have something to do with it?

If I had one week the place would be in fabulous ruins.

[Guy Gardener]

They got back to you about your query?

And the answer "She is is Tacky"

Well dang, they might as well just burn down the whole freaking forum.

This is very thesis of democracy vs. fascism.

Although this is clearly not a democracy.

But the tag cloud demonstrates the mind and will of the people.

It seems that the mind and will of the people is distasteful and should be squashed?

I'd probably agree with that.

[teacake]

No, no one has gotten back to me. When I said "it was removed" I meant the "babe of the week tag".

I have heard nothing. And it seems the perfectly lucid thread you started south of here no one could be bothered thinking about for long enough to address, so it was shut down.

The tag mystery remains.

[Guy Gardener]

Lucid?

I misspelled "Cloud" in the headder.

They had no fucking idea what a tag Coud was.

[teacake]

Maybe I meant lucid dreaming.

[spot_loves_data]

Speaking of annoying mysteries, I just noticed that the words "Star Trek" in my last post upthread were automatically linked to ebay. I know I didn't link that myself. That's a fairly obnoxious way to advertise.

That link doesn't seem to show up in all browsers. It doesn't in Dolphin, but it does in Android's built-in browser.

[teacake]

You should report that, it sounds like a hack.

[Guy Gardener]

Tia Carrera looks like a surgery accident.

(Joined the cast of In Plain Sight.)

Then, Mike Myers looks like a bowl of pudding even without the fat bastard suit.

10 percent that it's possibly a hack, 70 percent that it's someone in power here making money off the website, which is fine, since my wallet is staying in my back pocket and the folkes in charge have to pay for their steak dinners somehow.
