(+) Yeah! (+)

For some reason I can no longer tag new people on this account (I can only change existing tags). So I want to submit a feedback ticket/bug report.
Except how do I get there? The "Help" section is completely worthless: https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/help
So I googled gamefaqs feedback which brought me here:
https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/feedback
...Which just has another link to the stupid Help section, claims it's "for answers to the most frequently asked questions and links to create new Feedback", but there's no such fucking link! WTF?

Yeah a couple years ago when they changed the message board page, they made it extremely hard to find out where to put in feedback tickets.

Must be why Allen thinks theres no problems.

they made it so you can only have 3000 people blocked/ignored/followed/following

ok thanks to google and me being really smart i found the feedback ticket thing. i reported both the tagging issue and the issue where the links it talks about don't exist.

---

I can't tag people now either.

Horse shit.

Thats odd, working for me

refresh

that said it seemed to work as usual on my alt

---

i hope i'll get a shitty passive-aggressive response again like in my sig

---

Maybe its a weird database error because I barely tag anyone. Maybe the system thinks you are over the limit somehow

There is a maximum of 1000 users across your follow/friend/ignore/block/tag lists combined

---

Oh so it was 1000 not 3000. Whoops

---

How do you tag 1000+ people? >_>

---

Yeah it's awful, I'm at 838 so I'm close.

it's fucking absurd that they introduce those achievement thingies for tagging people only to stop allowing people to tag people. like wtf?

all this extraneous bullshit: entirely reasonable and worth developing
spaces in usernames: impossible and never coming back, enjoy your hyphens and underscores, it's 2021

they should publish a list of top users with the most spaces in their names to really rub it in

wait so this means i can no longer block people unless i delete a shit ton of tags

lmfao this site is officially unusable

bye

You can mass delete groups of tagged users by using the dropdown below your list here: https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/user/tagged

Considering the number of people who were affected by the 1000 limit can be counted on my hands and feet, I don't think there's a real need to raise it right now, but we aren't against raising it in the future if it becomes a more widespread issue.

And on this day SBAllah blessed us with his presence and spoke unto the masses

Isn't this just admitting there was no real reason to drop it in the first place then?

Also how many fucking fingers and toes do you have dude? Just going by the Tagger badge page there's 78 users that have 1000+ people tagged alone lol.

I'm a little confused why we introduced a feature and are now punishing people for using said feature.

I lost my 2003 space account 15 years ago (meaning I've had this account MUCH longer than I even possessed a space account), and I'm still bothered by it lol.

I agree. I'm usually indifferent to most changes on this site, and might defend some of them, but this one kills me. Now I know I can't catch up in tags.

I saw someone woth a name like -_-_-_-_-_- or something on another board just a little while ago, and I also remember someone with one like o___________0 a while ago.

Also sballen probably has a shitload of hands and feet tbh

SBAllah lying as usual, theres no way the number of people who were affected by the 1000 limit can be counted on his hands and feet. Maybe he didnt mean it literally and just meant an insignificant percentage of users are affected by it, but his fault for phrasing it that way because you cant expect people like us not to take things literally when convenient.

Well there are at least 78. Probably closer to 100 or more.

@Fluttershy Yup, that's the one I lost. When I got banned back in 2006, I actually made a few alt accounts using an exploit to create space accounts. I checked for those accounts yesterday (probably last logged in 2010 or so) and I see that they have underscores now. I'd NEVER make an account with underscores lol.

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/community/Legato_Returns
https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/community/King_of_Legion

These used to be space accounts.

Semi-related, but I checked my Vash-and-Legato account yesterday after not logging into it for probably around the same time as these other accounts, and yesterday was that account's birthday lol.

Also just noticed today is this account's birthday lol.

The thing is that it makes absolutely no sense for tags to be placed in the same category as follow, friend, ignore, block. Like if people were tagging too many folks and causing problems, then fine, make a limit for it. But it should be a seperate limit from the 1000 follow/fried/ignore/block.

They had a limit for it. It was file size based and quite fair, in my opinion. There were was to work around it to lower the number of characters you used, etc. This has no work around one you've hit the limit. And I and many others are very far over the limit. There are probably about two hundred accounts that are over or nearing that combined limit.
