Can we have a tag for P2TM?

Largely because we have F7er and General threads. And P2TM roleplays tends to be a completely different sort of roleplaying from the norm.

By threads, you mean tags? Are there many P2TM-based regions? Surely you'd be better off finding people through participating in the forum?

I mean "tags". Brain fart. :p

That's a good point to be honest. Never mind that then.

Wouldn't the same reason apply to the Generalite, F7er, General Assembly etc. tags?

Yes, but there seem to be a few regions based around communities from each.

I'll admit to not having read all 19 pages, so apologies if it's been suggested.

Could there be a tag/tags to indicate non-executive founders and/or non-executive delegates? I'd prefer the latter if only one is to be granted.

Thanks!

Could we perhaps get a tag that shows all regions not given puppet storage status, or maybe all regions with delegacies?

This would let people see the nation rankings of regions that really recruit, and help foreign affairs between regions, because it would be easier to find other regions.

Just an idea

So a tag for regions with WA delegates? I think a lot of people would like that.

It's been suggested numerous times that the WA Members link on the WA page links to a list of nations that are in the WA, but the WA delegate's list goes to list of regions some of which have delegates and some of which do not. I think if they fixed that link it'd be easier than adding another tag to every page.

Not Puppet Storage is already possible. With/without delegacies would be quite nice, but not really all that useful like passworded was.

Could be a good WA campaigning tool, as the list would be over fewer pages. That's why it was pushed for before, anyway.

I know it was brought up about a dozen pages back, but what's the word on splitting the founderless tag? That is 'founderless: the found CTEd' and 'founded before founders'.

That can be done by adding an 'Antiquity' tag, listing just the pre-founder era regions.

Also added to the ToDO list: a 'Delegate' tag. But I see that we're getting more and more system tags, so I'm gonna have to polish the display code a bit.

Has anyone ever suggested making "Puppet Storage" a "System" tag like the population tags and the "Class" tag, that is placed on a region if it meets certain criteria?

It would certainly make it easier to tell what regions are and aren't puppet regions, because some puppet regions such as the Galapagos regions and all the breakoffs from True North lack the tag.

It's up to the players to determine which are 'puppets' and which are 'main nations'. For us to programatically decide that would be fairly presumptuous.

Mythika Manor still has the founderless tag, even though the founder was revived.

Looks like you're right (unless it was removed before update). Does this mean that founderless tags are removed after update if a founder returns?

The region doesn't know that the founder self-revived until the region goes through update, so I feel quite certain that update tag checks are the answer here.
