Could you please look into the issue of tagging. Some members conducting polls tag a lot of trains and stations for generic polls. This leads to those polls trending in those station / train pages always and not allowing individual posts related to that train or station to bubble up.
If a poll is on a specific train or station, then it's ok. But just like that too much tagging for votes sake amounts to spamming.

:
Please look at these 2 polls where the members have just done tags for what is mentioned in the poll - the correct practice,
/blog/post/4545992
/blog/post/2170957
.
Then there is this member who just keeps tagging and ruining each and every train / station page
.
Tagging each and every train in the category
/blog/post/4133792
Hasn't it been made clear that just one or two trains needs to be tagged in such polls before?
.
And why does this poll /blog/post/4542737 need so many tags? Because they are ELS? It's a poll on HP.....
.
And loco livery poll /blog/post/4539905
Just like that tag each and every ELS?

Yes.. too many irrelevant tags in most polls to get votes as if some competition ..
3 or 4 tag is okay

"lesson on good behavior, good conduct" - just because someone points out your mistake, doesn't mean you start berating them on a personal level. Shows your conduct.
.
Polls on HP, Livery and you just tag so many ELS? They don't need any tag at all.
And polls on GR, Raj needs one or two trains not each and every train of that category.

And stop begging for votes everyday. That makes the polls keep coming up even if no one votes.
You have basically ruined lot of train and station pages. So I brought it to the notice of Moderator.
.
"You stay with those 'Best Train' polls and your attitude"
Well I hate those polls. Also if some members wanna conduct them let them...
You are trying to illustrate as if you were saving IRI from those 'Best train' polls, and now if you quit we will have to contend with them mediocre polls and will be missing your great polls.
.
And stop trying to "guilt trip" me with your 'I will quit, bye bye, boo hoo hooo...."
I really don't care.

I dont want to attack you personally boss, you started that. You are ruthless and impolite. I don't want to make you fill guilty cause I know you won't fill that, i know your nature, and I am not a cryboy. I just ask for votes for few days, then I stop. And it shows your nature when you say I beg for votes, I am not a beggar, you better watch your tone and way of talking. You wanted to show my mistake, then talk to me rather than starting a scene. And yes, you may not miss my polls, but I don't care. I used to create those polls with the joy of creation and asked for votes because like everyone else I wanted that my creation is being seen by people. I always tell which train or station I am ragging in my poll body, if you cant...

see that, thats not my fault. Now you say my polls are ruining the pages, that shows how jealous and mean your nature is. I dont care what you think, I have already detagged from the poll you had raised concern. You can go ahead and report for other polls as you want. End of discussion.

You are so pathetic, each and every comment you make a personal attack, when all I did was question and ask Moderator to look into this issue. And I am not the only one who sees your excessive tagging.

I already told you, you wont have be bothered on this issue going forward cause I won't tag, rather I won't try to post any poll. Happy? End of discussion (again).

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake. These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
