Tags for accounts.

[Fire]

As the title suggests, the idea is to create a few tags for the accounts section, to make navigation easier.

For example the cape accounts section would have the following tags:

• 2011
• 2012
• 2013
• 2015
• 2016
• Multiple
• Other (Just incase someone has a cobalt, translator cape etc.)

Rank accounts section could have a hypixel tag, and other servers that accounts commonly hold ranks for.

Semi-OG could have:

• Prefix
• Suffix
• Prefix and suffix (Basically the cheap semis)
• Specialist (Names that mean nothing to most people, but a lot to some. Like game items)
• Maybe a few others, but you get the general idea (Accounts aren't my strong point).

OG could have 2 char tag etc. (Would leave which tags would be needed to those that specialise with that. I mostly just hang around the hosting and builds forum.)

This would make it a lot easier to find accounts. Rather than needing to go though several pages looking for accounts that I want, I could just click the tag and only be shown ones that interest me. It would also be a cleaner solution, rather than having separate sub forums for each, like has been previously suggested.

Some credit to Samuel since I picked up the idea from here: http://www.mc-market.org/threads/173726/ and made it apply for all accounts.

I love this idea, GL

The problem is that right now we make everyone submit their threads through a form, and I don't think it's possible for us to organise it into prefixes for each one. Organisation could be cool, but if you're looking for an account it only takes a minute or two to look through all of the pages of each section.

I see your point. As far as I know it would be possible to do, however would require something custom coded. Depends if the potential benefit from this, would outweigh the time as cost to implement it.

You're right, it does only take a couple of mins to go though most of the sections. However the cape section has to be an exception to this:

If I say want a 2011 cape. Which are rarer than others. I would have to open and view every thread until I found one. Then might need to find a few different ones to get the best deal.

If its possible to get the name of the account automatically and add it into the title of the thread. Then maybe as a simpler counter suggestion you could add a checkbox list to the form with a list of cape types. So that it would add those to the title. For example:

2016 Cape Account "Mick"
2011 & 2012 Cape Account "Fire"
etc.

Would save having to look though every thread.

Denied, thanks for the suggestion.
