Tag

Within the context of Milliways, 'Tag' has two different meanings.

Verb
Tagging in, or just simply tagging, is commenting in-character to a thread or post. A comment can also be referred to as a tag. It is common to see players tagging one another while in crackchat, usually calling out the character they are tagging. This is especially common when Dreamwidth email notices are down.

Noun
There are also physical tags used by Dreamwidth, as a means of organisation. These tags must be requested by the player, and as a result, not all characters have tags. In the past, when the game was hosted on LiveJournal, tags were recycled, giving new characters tags that had been previously used by characters that were no longer in the game.

Tags are also used for events and recurring posts, such as Happy hour or certain holidays like Cubefall.
