This site has two writer tags. Why?

[Kana Truden]

Hi, today I was looking for the Rekali homestead when I stumbled upon the profile of one Rach Kol-Rekali instead. Now usually that's no big deal. You see a character sheet and move on, but not this time. Because one person ([member="Felicity Sage"]) in that very thread had something that caught my eye.

A golden writer tag:​

​

Compare it to the most prominent one:​

​

Now, I totally dig the ones we have going at the moment. They totally work, but I can't help but feel like the golden tag is just a little bit more prettier. Anyway, this is not a critique post so I'll get to the point.

Why is that we have two writer tags on the site? Is it a leftover from an era of the forum that I missed?

 

[Soliath Devin Talith]

Because Staff has favorite and you're not one of them.

No, I'm jokes.

As you can see the account that has the older tag is quite a bit older, it has also not posted in a long time. It's pretty much a remnant of the past tag that was used.

 

[Hijinks]

It's sooo pretty...

I can has?

 

[Artemis Vahl'Nyx]

It's been so long since I've seen that tag...

Thank you much, sir.
And yes, yes I did. This is what happens when I'm blasting Audiomachine at 2 in the morning.

.-. Whelp, there you go. lol.

The thread goes from
"Why do we have two writer tags"

to

"I'm older than you HA.HA!"

I remember those tags too!

and FYI i'm 18......

 

[Baalagor]

I actually prefer the new tag.

And since everyone else is sharing, I'm 16...

I'm 22 not that old. Old is considered 40+ we're still young, and your still kids. (To Adults 40+ anyway)

How I know this is because I lived with my grandma for most of my life.

Edit: Eh.. I'd like it if 'Writer' Stayed gold. XD

 

[Tefka]

We're obviously not going back to the old tag, but man. That's kinda crazy. My initial guess is that the site has cached that tag. Because it doesn't exist on the server any longer.

A ghost from a different age of chaos.

 

[Artemis Vahl'Nyx]

lol. 19.

I honestly thought you were in your mid-twenties. Maybe, like, 21 at the youngest.

This thread has surprised me deeply. Here I thought I was the nearly youngest by far more than that!
Not sure who has currently claimed the Throne of Children. I know at least one person younger than me, but that's only by a few months.

I've seen a few of them when I looked back to the old founder thread to see what was up with founder tags.
