tyciol: Traffik whoever started kimberly_harris fucked up and made it lowercase AFAIK so that's a large reason why, so Kim_Harris would be capitalized and look better. Seems mods have fixed that now.
Also given that Kimberly is very often just called Kim in the show, it does make a lot of sense to propose that as an alternative. Certainly easier to type.
If something has the wrong case, report it. The admins have a function to fix the case of an existing tag, a far superior solution to adding another one.
For Kim vs. Kimberly, we go by the wikipedia article. In any case, it is dumb to have both.
And a rule violation: Don't use multiple tags for the same character. For instance, don't tag both Bonnie_Rockwaller and Bonnie. If a character has two official names, such as Bruce_Wayne and Batman, ask the admins to create an alias if there isn't one. That way you can search for either tag, but only one is actually displayed on pics. Same situation when an artist has more than one name.
traffik: @traffik: I realize that someone tagged it 'kimberly_harris'. I just don't understand why your solution to that is to create a redundant tag, instead of contacting mods to get the tag fixed. See, one of those things is fixing a problem, while the other way (yours) is creating a new problem. And it blows my mind that after 12 freaking years, you don't get this. You've been told by me. You've been told by mods. You've been tempbanned. What more needs to happen? At what point in this line of logic does the train go off the rails?
It isn't like this is an isolated incident. I've seen you tag the same character in as many as 4 or 5 different ways. This is a habit of yours, and it's for which (as jtc pointed out) you have no good defense, since at any time you can contact a mod to make your case for the amendment of a tag.
I'm sure you're tired of seeing my name bitching at you-- but understand that I'm tired of going into Tag History to see who put a bunch of unnecessary tags on a pic, and seeing yours. You're one of the few people left who's been here longer than I have, and you post some decent stuff, so I'd like to actually be able to have respect for you... but it makes it pretty difficult when I have to either get a mod to fix your shenanigans, or do it myself.
All you have to do is do things the right way, and all this hassle goes away. You wouldn't think you'd fight it so hard.
