Hey,

What is your thinking about tags? Do you keep them all (minus the negative ones), or do you keep tags from certain people?

I tend to keep them all. It's a way to see what people think about my work, as well as give them a way of saying hello without sending me a message on the board.

Your thoughts?

Anyone have bad experiences with tags, or leave a good tag with someone, only to see it gone a few days later?

I delete some of them depending on the content like “nice workâ€? “cool photosâ€? or “If you’re ever in Alabama, I’d love to shoot with you; I think we could make some beautiful pictures togetherâ€?.

I have an ongoing conversation with a model friend of mine which if you read the comments, you only see one side of the conversation and it’s confusing, but I leave it because she’s cool.


Ps, I don't think the other thread is the same as what you asked.

I just leave them all - even the negative one.  I don't get so many that its a has become a problem.

Thanks, Craig. It didn't seem the same, but I didn't want to be called out by the duplication police for starting the same thread.

If someone leaves you a tag, do you feel obligated to leave THEM one?

I usually do, unless one slips by me.

Obligated, no. I do at times. It all depends on if I feel my comments will be well received.

I don't believe that.  You probably get 5 billion tags a week.  You just delete them all in your sleep and don't want to admit it. smile

Yeah, I do.  When I see a new tag for me, I try to visit that person's page right away and leave them a photo comment and/or tag too.
