    Erm..more clarification please? what tags? story(/union/game/etc) keyword tags? html or BBCode tags in posts? some other type of tags?

    Edit: Ah, that's should be as simple as going to the thread you put the tag on, clicking the tag option, and removing the tags you added that don't appear to be working.

    That said, they should all be working, and the only reason I can imagine that they wouldn't is due to the recent cache issues the site seems to be having or it's just slow to update.

    The box to type tags into also seems a bit buggy when you try to make it larger, but all the text is still there regardless, using ctrl+a then del while the text cursor is in the box will clear all the tags you personally added to the thread from the box, and saving will save that change, you can re-add any that you wanted to keep still of course, or just go through and only delete specific ones if you can see them.

    Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there, wondering, fearing, doubting..
    Time takes it all whether you want it to or not, time takes it all.
    Time bares it away, and in the end there is only darkness.
    Sometimes we find others in that darkness, and sometimes we lose them there again.
    None can hope to convey the life-sensation of any given epoch of one's existence -
    that which makes its truth, its meaning - its subtle and penetrating essence.
    It is impossible. We live, as we dream - alone.
    The real meaning of enlightenment is to gaze with undimmed eyes on all darkness..

    In my experience adding tags can be quite buggy on gamespot, the above poster nailed it pretty well. You should try adding and saving the tags you want to keep for any particular topic a couple before you can get them to work, i strongly advice you not to add more than 5 concrete specifically related tags..
