Are you enjoying the time you spend doing that? If you are enjoying it then you aren't wasting time here.
The first half was quite awful. But i knew when i started that it was going to be awful and still did it.
I believe that you have to put some effort to make a change, so i did put a considerable effort. 100K tag edits in a year, basically. Over 90% of those edits just to boost one tag.
I always wanted a tag like the one i maintain, i looked for a tag like that for years. When i finally found it, it was quite underutilized 5-7K posts, considering how much content is uploaded everyday that is compatible with it.
I decided, i will change that. I have lots of free time, and i will see if its possible to do a big change and make other people adopt the tag, without forcing anybody, by doing "tag marketing"
And i think, i succeeded. But at a considerable cost, now im burned out. Tired of doing tag edits. It was worth it? hehe... i dont know, i got what i wanted, but i burned myself out, i guess thats why i dont feel quite happy.
Ironically, one of the few positive things about this place for me would be, just doing dumb jokes on the forum. Tagging is not very enjoyable for me, i am not even a good tagger.
