Mandatory Flairs / Tags

[xxkd99]

Hey I had an idea and was wondering if it would be possible to get some sort of mandatory flairs when commenting, so that comments can sorted through more efficiently

For example in sales threads having flairs for things like
Questions
Replies
Reviews

Or on journey threads being similar - and being able to instantly sort through the thread to only see the OPs posts and comments

Having these would make posts a lot easier to sort through so that people reading can easily sort the threads to only see the posts and comments that they want

Good idea in theory but I think it would be to hard to implement / regulate.

Ehh I don't think it would be too hard it would you would just have to pick from a few different flair options such as

I'll admit that I don't have any coding experience so I can't comment on that but in terms of making threads that are sometimes hindered of pages long easier to navigate, they would definitely help

I'm not in the mood to address this at the moment.

I dont really mean in terms of coding, I mean in terms of how its actually going to be put into place so that its useful and doesnt just become more "stuff" that people are to get past to find what they want in any particular thread.

For example, it might seem easy for you, you might have a particular idea about how to use this system in your head, but when you scale that up and put in place a system that has to be used by thousands of people a day on hundreds of thousands of threads, how do you make it fool-proof? How do you regulate it? It would be necessary to at least have someone monitoring it - making sure posts were tagged correctly for example, making sure it wasnt abused - that would be a load more work for mods. And if it wasnt given the right amount of time and effort then it would mean threads getting even more complicated, more confusing info for people to sift through.
