Since I don't see tags be used very often (as I don't see icons either), when and what about exactly should they be used for? <_<

They can be used to, well, tag your thread. You can put one or two tags with keywords explaining what's in the thread. This could be useful later if we implement a tag-based thread search :P

Tags can also be used to signal certain potentially problematic thread contents, ie [56k] for large images or [nsfw]/[18] for adult material...

And of course, tags can be misused to repeat the whole thread's title in tags, but it looks silly :P

Thanks. If only there was a way to edit tags after you post your thread since they can only be put in when you initially post the thread. Is there a way to edit the tags?

You'd edit them the same way as you'd change the thread's title. When viewing a thread of yours, there should be an 'Edit' link next to 'Post Reply'. There you go.

OK. Since there are no tags on this thread, there's none in edit, but if I added one to a new thread, it would be in that screen?

Could you, being owner, add onne somehow if possible so I can try editing it?

Yes and yes.

Also, there's two ways to add tags. You can use the button, but you can also type the [tag] directly in the title field.

Worked. Added a tag. Thanks, Arisotura, yet again, or helping me.
