Could we seperate the Founderless tag into two tags, one for pre-founder regions, the other for regions with a CTEd founder?

Also how about "Issue Player"?

Some regions have nations answer their issues almost down to an exact size science to top rankings/trophies/get a very unique type of nation.

Maybe one for regions founded by Non-executive(that's what it's called right?) founders?

Founderless and varients: I have ideas, but for now I plan on leaving this alone.
Issue Players: Could you point me to some example regions? I'll probably leave this one to a mod more familiar with this aspect of the game.

Would you be so kind to post a new (complete with recently added tags) list of all the tags? Thanks in advance!

Tagss are a great idea. Forest is an oldish region whose emphasis is environmental. Any chance of a tag along the lines of environmental, or eco-friendly, or green...?
The world is not cyclical, not eternal or immutable, but endlessly transforms itself, and never goes back, and we can assist in that transformation.

Live on, survive, for the earth gives forth wonders. It may swallow your heart, but the wonders keep on coming. You stand before them bareheaded, shriven. What is expected of you is attention.

If you can find me a few other regions this would apply to, then yes.

As for the master list. Yup, I just need to take care of some stuff first.

Yup, I'm already seeing the Collector regions abusing the tags.

Hey, there's a good tag "Collector" for those regions that abuse new features just to have the most.





I would love to have a way to exclude any region with a certain tag when I'm searching through the regions.

I'll get another mod to look into this one.

Yeah, I've spotted them too. I don't think that I'll create a collector tag, but that might change.

I plan on adding very powerful search functionality to tags, but I didn't think that you guys would want me to delay launching tags by several weeks just to get that implemented.

Ah yes. There aren't a whole lot of games that actually take the time to LISTEN to their players. I've got to love Nationstates. Thank you Salusa :kiss: .

Nice feature. Founderless tag just paints a target on a region though. Surely this is not needed?

I'm more concerned with the Founderless tag not being useful information for people, since it also includes all the regions which have a (temporarily?) non-existent founder. One could move there, and then two days later the founder returns... that's not what the new recruit joined up for!

Also, perhaps set a maximum number of tags allowed? Some regions out there are just adding tags at random, which really pollutes the value of the search function.

Thanks! I really like this new feature. The fact that you added in a search feature on the world page is will really be a help to new players.

And one more comment: the order of the tags seems rather... random.

Could you please make it so the system-provided tags are listed after the user-set tags?

When searching regions it says "Sort by: Today's World Census | Population | Name". Shouldn't the 'Tags' be in there as well? (=Sort by: Today's World Census | Population | Name | Tags)
