4 that read the thread

Gonna just assume this entire list pinged the others

I think possibly upping the limit for Hosts will help, I think perhaps 50 is fair? And if more tags are needed, members can ping one of us to tag
Alternatively, individual perms for hosts that request 50+ tag limits without messing with the overall Host usergroup could be okay

The reason it's kept low when you first install XenForo is that each user mention sends an individual alert to the targeted user. This results in two or three queries per user mention, which can become quite expensive in terms of server performance. We can set it to fifty for the Mafioso Hosts usergroup, but these trusted hosts must keep in mind that the increased usage should not be abused, i.e., mass mentioning of users in a short amount of time.

 

[Ral]

Oh, and increasing the limit too much may lead to notification overload, causing users to feel overwhelmed or annoyed by the constant alerts

Stop.

Prime example

But would it be less of a strain if it's just applying to the host usergroup?

These tags won't be used often and I'd say we should stick to the most active bunch, and go to the ones that rarely play directly

Or perhaps we can simply add a Mafia usergroup (I hear your sigh!!) and tag via usergroup itself but I'm obviously not sure that's a thing

 

[Dr. Watson]

Stop.

You can opt out of tags, maybe even section tags and quotes?
Maybe a usergroup or a manual tag list with users that want to opt out could be a possibility

 

[Dr. Watson]

Also stay mad, this is necessary in order to figure out what we can do with tags given the limitations
Clam down, Nipple
This is the only post I'll be tagging

How many notifications on average do you and Nibel get

Edit: https://onelastforum.com/account/preferences
This is preferences, you can sort out what notifications you want to get and which ones you don't - try this, then we can talk about tweaking things later on
