Nope thats basicly what happened. I thought the rest of the messages would get the tag if the 1st message was later assigned a tag. The replies , as well as the 1st post were all done via

Technotronic, Ok, I think I figured out what's going on. Here's what the Topics and the Threading Algorithm, on the Group Managersr Forum Wiki reads:

You added the hashtag to a message post in the archive. If someone replied to that message in the archive the reply would have been hashtagged also; but I think if they replied to the original

Right. It's very easy for someone to fake their way into a group, even with the new info on the geographical location, etc. -- J Messages are the sole opinion of the author, especially the fishy

I was only being slightly serious! The group I moderate operates restricted membership anyway but that does not necessarily make spotting a second membership application a reliable process. Chris

Chris, Why don't you restrict membership and stop them at the gate when they try to rejoin? -- Bob Bellizzi

I agree, as owners/moderators we need to take control of our groups. If there is a need to show the difference between authoring and hijacking a message it can be accomplished by approving the

I noticed something weird about this just the other day after adding a hashtag to an already-existing topic. I haven't had time to thoroughly check it out yet but just adding my voice to "something

I agree that politics are not appropriate on beta, but I read this as simply a joke and and having nothing to do with politics. To be back on topic, I'm definitely for conserving our limited worldwide

Initial post had a subject, and was later tagged. As an experiment, find the 1st post in a subject thats not been tagged, and tag it. Do all the rest of the replies now get tagged? I dont think they

Can live without the political commentary, thanks. -- J Messages are the sole opinion of the author, especially the fishy ones. My humanity is bound up in yours, for we can only be human together.

Ken, I believe that was discussed long ago here in beta, it is a matter of style and Mark made a choice. Pedantically that's a list of your subscriptions, not his. Your makes more sense to me because
