Topic: Tag alias: slow_down -> too_fast

Posted under Tag Alias and Implication Suggestions

Should either of these be tags? Whether or not something is too fast seems quite subjective.

It's a dialogue tag

It seems a bit excessive to have random dialog like this put into tags, especially if the tag is including different statements under it. "Slow down" doesn't always mean "too fast", so having a character say "slow down" but get tagged "too fast" will tag posts with "too fast" that don't say "too fast" (and there are reasons someone can say "slow down" without meaning they're going too fast).

I'd love if we could just transcribe images and have that searchable like descriptions, instead of having all these dialogue tags.

I wonder if maybe we should consider having the few direct quote text/dialogue tags we deem valid alwas be within quotation marks... a tags purpose might be more clear when it's something like "good_girl" rather than good_girl.

first off, holy shit would that be a lot of work (even just from the text-based stuff imagine dealing with sound posts), but also we have the problem of expletives or moans/breaths/whatever breaking a phrase up which would still be taggable but searching transcribed dialogue straight would be difficult.

I've been looking into dialogue tags as of late, there's a lot that can be done there I feel. It might be a good idea to have everyone talk about these dialogue tags to delimit the possible dialogues tags though. New thread?
