i say stick with "Macintosh" since that is the most tagged |
| Anonymous #599948 9 months ago |
Can't we just have tag aliases like, I dunno, every other Danbooru-based image site out there? There are similar problems with other tags, like "Princess_Celestia" vs "Celestia", "Derpy_Hooves" vs "Derpy" and many more. |

^ Can't we have useable tags first?
This site is an epic clusterfuck. |
| Anonymous #599952 9 months ago |
Umm, the first spelling was confirmed by Lauren Faust. |
| Gittonsxv #599954 9 months ago |
949, what do you mean "usable" tags, you can use any tag on this site O-o |
| Anonymous #599959 9 months ago |
Like, useful. Images tagged with everything, or just with a set list of revelant information. No "no_time_to_tag", no "come_at_me_nyxhaters", none of the rest of the retarded clutter bullshit.
Tags are for information and sorting, not having a conversation with the fandom. |
| Anonymous #599960 9 months ago |
Er, relevant. |
| JP #599979 9 months ago |
All we need is a way to merge tags. Then spelling differences won't matter, because we can merge the wrong tags with correct tags and the wrong tags are replaced. Not sure how to implement it though. |

#599952
The first spelling was MADE by Lauren Faust, once. If it has been confirmed I have not seen it, and even if it was, it doesn't change that we spent a year calling him Big Macintosh, a year labeling things Big Macintosh, a year making puns based on Big Macintosh, and labeling things otherwise is counterproductive and just plain stupid. If they suddenly decided Spitfire was spelled Spitfyre would you really like to see tons of dupes from people reposting things they didnt find because they only looked under one spelling? The most popular spelling should be the one we use exclusively, otherwise it's needlessly confusing and cluttered. a modest proposal |

Not to mention I still stand by the idea that McIntosh is very clearly pronounced differently than Macintosh. "Mc" and "Mac" are not the same thing. It isn't called Macdonalds, you guys. |
| Kanashi1kage #600050 9 months ago |
As the show is currently being concerned, he IS MacIntosh. On Sibsy's profile, she says it's MacIntosh in the script.
Faust could've just typoed MacIntosh. All she did was leave out the "a". Regardless, I'm in agreement. We don't need 2 names for the same character. |
| Kanashi1kage #600054 9 months ago |
Though yeah. We really do need aliases. |
| Anonymous #600064 9 months ago |
Hey guys.
I just fixed this. The Big_McIntosh tag? No longer exists. |
| Kanashi1kage #600071 9 months ago |
Oh wow. It doesn't. Thanks anon.
End topic I guess? |

hey fuzzy why do e always tag AB pics as "apple_bloom" instead of "applebloom"
even when i tag my own pics as applebloom people come around and change it. Wtf. We don't seperate Applejack's name, why would to do it to bloom's |
| Fuzzy_Logic #600352 9 months ago |
Applejack is a single word. Apple Bloom is not. As in, Applejack, the real thing, is one word.
Most ponies have two word names. Apple Bloom is one of them. The reason Applejack isn't is because her name just happens to be based on a real word, which is compound. |

@fuzzy
And McIntosh is a kind of apple, MacIntosh is not. |
| Kanashi1kage #600492 9 months ago |
McIntosh is a kind of apple.
MacIntosh is a Scottish family name (along with McIntosh) Regardless of the apple name, MacIntosh is his script name. |
| CranialHeartache #600773 9 months ago |
Whenever I tag I try to use all forms of each tag, and normally succeed, but sometimes miss one or two. |
| Anonymous #600928 9 months ago |
100% agreed. |
