What's with the recent trend of tagging articles with palin or sarahpalin that have nothing to do with Sarah Palin?
If your article has nothing to do with Palin, please don't tag it as such. It's bad enough that journalists use her name to get hits to their articles or as a cheap source of writing material. We don't need that attitude here too.
Just because people want to increase traffic to their posts, doesn't mean they should tag their posted articles with palin or sarahpalin. This just clutters the keyword/tagging system.
He could be a Palintologist
I got my Palin my pick up to get some minniows...
Got my Palin my hand to get some ice from the machine at the RV park.........
This could go on forever....please stop me......thank you
You may continue. :)
Peach it BubbaJunebug, preach it :P
You stopped visiting/donating to Free Republic because of keyword spamming? To each his own, but that seems pretty lame.
You’ve left the site because of keyword spamming, but set yourself an alarm so that if someone posted about keywords, you’d be informed so you could come back and post to the thread?
(Hey, I had another snarky thing to say, but it wasn’t family-friendly) :-)
Then there was this inexplicable tagging: Actor Leslie Nielsen dies of complications from pneumonia
And this one: GEORGE WASHINGTON'S FIRST THANKSGIVING PROCLAMATION
It doesn't look like there are tons of them, but there certainly are a few. Question is, are the more threads about Sarah which aren't being tagged than there are non-Palin threads being tagged?
Seriously, the keyword spamming is the one reason I’ve stopped coming here.
***And yet, you are here.
My donations have been going to other sites.
***And yet you continue to whine. It figures. The donation you have for FR is the same donation that seagulls give to schoolyards.
Oh yeah, and the animosity. The other reason I don’t come here.
I dont come here because I dont know how to get here
We might as well add a Mormon tag, since every third article or so these days is something about loving mormons or hating mormons or mormons loving...
And yet, you’re still here, still the seagull.
What sites are better than FP?
None!
At least they are smarter the the palin haters, they know she a winner and will use her name!
No one is using Romney as a keyword!
Maybe it’s pissants doing. Then again, maybe not. Glad we got to the bottom of that.
