I'd rather just have my tag live with the posts that was made while that was my tag.
I skimmed right past this -- me, I also like my tag changing
everywhere,
all at once. Well, except for the archives, but I can't have everything.
I'm very attached to the ephemeral nature, is all. It's a characteristic for me.
I think there are also other ways to do it. I store all of my ex-tags in my user profile. If you see someone else's tag that you especially like, you can always put it in COMM.
I can't find the WXing Natters in our archives [link] after Natter 8. Is that because they're in the attic (where I can find them)?
Yes. I've threadsucked all of the old WX threads, but I've never put them up because they aren't perfect copies (also, I'm lazy). The WX threadsuck program drops posts, so the threads I have are missing occasional posts. The threads in the WX Attic are complete at least.
I store all of my ex-tags in my user profile.
This is my practice too. All you have to do is click on my name to see any past tags I've used.
Thank you, DX. I just wanted to make sure it was on purpose.

I'm not especially invested in having it live with the posts. Frankly, I'm fine with the current system. And I too keep a Tag Graveyard of Tags Past and a Tag Bullpen of the Once and Future Tags.
OK, I just saw a thing in
Firefly
where all the post numbers after post #918 were "933."
It freaked me out.

... Then it went away.
It was there. I swear.

Yeah, that's been a thing for a while. I think it's just seeing the first letter and winging it...
