I actually subscribe since is good but don't tag spam man i cant even search mods good in the workshop when theres 6 mods from you tag spamming a death sound.
Ultimately, the real solution isn't individual creators self-policing based on subjective interpretations (especially when the practice is widespread), but rather improved Workshop infrastructure and clear, enforced guidelines from those in charge.
My priority is spending my free time making audio mods for the community and working on tools like the audio mod maker I'm developing. The tagging strategy is secondary to that and, for now, follows the existing, unregulated patterns seen across the workshop.
Thanks for understanding, and whoever read this, enjoy your lovely day!
It's interesting to contrast this with other communities. For instance, the Garry's Mod workshop has a clear rule addressing this exact issue:
" Do not abuse tags - Mistagged addons will be taken down. This is mostly applicable to the gamemode tag, if you are uploading a content pack for your server, tag it as such. (ServerContent) Having all of the tags on the same addon is also forbidden. " ( Source [wiki.facepunch.com])
But let's be realistic – the Workshop, as it stands for Project Zomboid, has operated this way for a long time. Widespread, loose tagging is common, including on very popular mods, and as far as I can tell from the official Modding Policy and general observation, there are no specific rules explicitly forbidding it or any real enforcement against it. I'm not the first to use broad tags, and I won't be the last unless something fundamentally changes about how the Workshop is managed for this game.
Itself alone can cause things to get worse over time, "Not caring" is the exact source of the problem, once you give up and start tag spamming yourself its only gonna set a precedent to other modders who'll then also give up correct tag use and begin tag spamming themselves and it'll only loop until everything's a mismanaged and disorganized mess making it harder for users to find mods like these.
You even say yourself you don't like tag spam, so why fall into and repeat the same issue you don't like? Instead set a precedent for other modders to use the tag system correctly to keep things organized and easy to manage.
sure not one modder can make all other modders actually use tags properly but it'll still somewhat help keeping things still somewhat organized and'll even make some modders start / keep using the tags system correctly and keeping everyone sane
so could you maybe do bill cipher doing it......👋 bye
@bluedream I don't care dude, technically I can do it so it's allowed.
I love the film Dr. Strange Love. “Gentlemen, you can’t fight in here! This is the War Room.”
