Posted under Tag Alias and Implication Suggestions
The tag implication #42821 chained -> bound has been rejected.
Reason: As I understand it chained is basically defined as the subset of bound were chains are used.
Yet there's no implication (and I couldn't find forum thread on these two tags)
EDIT: The tag implication chained -> bound (forum #323305) has been rejected by @NotMeNotYou.

Seems reasonable to me. I'll check more after work but some spot checks showed that this is basically how the tag is always used.
Is a character chained but not bound if they're wearing shackles that aren't attached to anything?

Depends on if there's a chain :P
More seriously, I'd rather not touch shackles at the moment as I'm still trying to clean up that cursed tag. Shackles doesn't *always* mean chains though. Most people use it to talk about any very bulky/semi-permanent metal restraints so the tag applies there too (currently, anyway).
But chained -> bound makes sense to me. Basically, is their movement restricted by chains? Unattached shackles don't really restrict movement...

Bound does not mean that you need a character to be attached to something, it can be something as simple as a character in handcuffs.
Additionally, fully_bound means that a character is completely immobilized (i.e., immobilization) by the object they are wearing.
On the other hand, restrained means that a character is being held down by physical force/muscle of another character/living being.
It's counterpart tag fully_restrained means that a character is completely immobilized (i.e., immobilization) by another character/living being.
This can be confusing as restraints are objects that are used to bind characters (i.e., bound).
