Recently our little corner of the DA fandom has picked up the use of tag lists and so did I. Because it's kind of convenient and tbh a matter of copy and past easy going way to work against the constant fear of forgetting/not including anyone.
This being said, I created my list trying to include everyone I think might be interested to get tagged in games or wants to see stuff about my OCs and/or read my fics.
I regard tag lists as a helpful tool and follow a few simple rules:
1. I have my own tag list, thus you can be 99,99999% certain, I want to be on YOUR tag list, too.
2. Never be shy to tell me if you need a break from me and want to be removed from said list.
3. Even if we've never interacted before, I will gladly add you to my tag list.
4. Even if you are on my tag list NEVER EVER feel pressured, to play along with anything which is not your jam or because you're exhausted and lack the spoons to do it right away. I also don't expect comments or likes on anything (nonetheless, I'll be all giddy and will love you forever if I get to read some reaction from you)
This all being said, now have my current tag list, let me know if you want off ;)
Hello friends, if I've tagged you in this you're either a mutual, someone I interact with a fair amount, or on my tag list.
Previously you would have seen me under the username SerStolas. This is a heads up that my new username on Tumblr and on AO3 is NecromanticSoul. If you have me on a tag list you may want to update or I will likely miss the tag.
But what’s the answer? Tagging… it’s a pickle isn’t it. 🤔
Firstly if you ever want to tag me please do, don’t be shy - a tag is always welcome and I love to get tagged and see what’s being created by all you wonderful talented people. I will reblog as many of your wonderful things as possible and do as many tag games as I can.
Now who should I tag… I’m an enthusiastic tagger but should I be? Fandoms change and people drift and that’s ok.
I’m going to tag this post with my usual victims and I will stop bothering those of you who are too polite to actively tell me to go away. 😘
So if you’d like to be tagged in any old rubbish I’m involved in like this post💜💜💜
If you’re interested in writing games/ tags like SSSunday and WIP Wed please like this post✏️✏️✏️
If you’re happy being tagged or actually want to be tagged 🤯on my writing and fic promos please like this post 🐉🐉🐉
Interact with this post ✨✨✨ if you’d like to be tagged in non writing based tag games
I hope at least a few of you want to stick on the tag list I’ll be lonely on my own
(There may be a handful of mutuals that are stuck with me regardless- sorry if you really want a break lmk 😘)
this has taken ages so some people may have see the other posts already..sorry and if i missed you, sorry and if you're new here than hello

okay, so. there's tag list discourse going on. and if i am honest i have been waiting SO LONG for there to be tag list discourse because i have strong feelings about it but i never wanted to be That Asshole. but now it's a Thing so here i am. oops.
i don't use a tag list. i never have and i never will. i also don't tag people for visibility. i honestly really dislike both because i think they kill genuine interaction in fandom and replace it with a checkmark exercise and also they make my dash insanely overwhelming. there are very few people who i want to be tagged on every single tag game or new thing they post, and for those very few people i have my notifications turned on.
for everyone else, i would absolutely love to be tagged on stuff that they post that they think "oh! alix would like this!" i adore my friends who tag me in games or works they've posted because they genuinely want to know what i think about things, and not just because i'm one of 50 people on a set list.
and normally, i'd say that you know what, if you want to use tag lists that way, that's great, you do you. and really, at the end of the day, that's the case: we can do things different and still get along and share space and interact and that's great.
but the thing that sucks as someone who doesn't use set tag lists is that at the end of the day, i'm kind of cut off from interacting with anyone who uses a set tag list, because being tagged by them is an all or nothing thing. i either have to be tagged in *everything* (which i don't love for the reasons above), or nothing at all (which sucks in the opposite direction).
so, to all my mutuals: please tag me when you think of me, on things that you think i'll like, and i'll do the same. and sometimes we'll forget each other and that's fine because we're humans and not robots.
Wanted to make a quick tag list form, inspired by my mutuals who have done this, because my brain is a mess and I never want to spam or forget someone.
Made with Tally, the simplest way to create forms.
You don't have to fill this out! If you don't, I'll plan to keep tagging or not tagging you the way I have been, until/unless you tell me any different).
There are no hard feelings if you ask for no tags or few tags or change your mind later! There's also never any pressure to participate, and I won't take it personally if you reply to tags late (or never) 🖤
You can also feel free to just comment or DM or whatever's easiest~
& we don't have to be moots - anyone can fill it out if you want tags :)
Just wanted to spread this news for people who don't know the new Tumblr updates that have to do with tagging on posts, both for user tag lists and for descriptive hashtags to help people find your post. I've had to learn them the hard way. 😅
User Tagging:
This first part is for people who have tag lists. Tumblr has recently changed the rules on tagging other blogs/users on a post.
You can still tag up to 50 blogs per post, but they must be spread out into groups of 5. Otherwise, the blog won't be highlighted/tagged and the person will not be notified.
Example (and more) below the cut: ⤵️
✅ Example:
And this is what it will probably look like if you don't spread them out into groups of 5:
Notice that only the first 5 blogs in each section are actually tagged.
Also something important to note: copy/pasting a tag list alone often isn't enough. After I copy over a tag list from another post, I always have to click on each blog name individually to select the blog and make sure it's tagged properly, so people get notified.
Trust me, I get why some writers have decided to ditch tag lists altogether. They can be tricky. 😂
Hashtags on Posts:
As most of you guys know, hashtags help people find your post. The limit of how many tags you can use has bumped up to 30 tags.
Now, this doesn't mean you have to use all 30 slots. But using the most popular tags will increase the likelihood that people will find your post.
By no means am I an expert on this, but I've been reading a lot of stories that should have SO many more reblogs, comments, etc. If some of them were using a few more key tags, they'd likely be getting much more traffic and notes on them.
Want to find out which hashtags are the most popular, relevant to your post?
Well, you can actually search them in the Your Tags tab, Tags You Follow, and go to Manage:
For Dean Winchester fanfiction, for example, here are the tags I use most often:
Ignore the first and last tags, which are just for me to organize the post for my blog. But I would say the most important tags here are the first few:
[character's full name]
[character's full name] x reader or [character's full name] x oc
fandom name
These three are absolutely key for any romance pairing fanfiction post, in my opinion.
Aside from being the most relevant for a pairing fanfic, these are often the most popular tags overall, as they are the tags with a high follower count. The rest can also be important supplemental hashtags relevant to the post.
You can also just start typing into this bar in your post draft and see what "popular tag" recommendations Tumblr gives you:
And that's it! For anyone who finds this PSA helpful, I salute you! 🫡 And I wish you all luck on future tagging endeavors. 💜
I'm also including some of my fellow writers just in case they have something to add to this — or if they don't know this info, though I'm sure they probably do already:
