Annoyed by people putting tags that are not relevant to the topic of discussions

Okay I been having some problem with people putting tags that are completely not related to the topic of my discussions. For example, I started a discussion about how many money making sites have you joined. Someone put this tag "guideline violation." Instead of putting this tag, they could have clicked the button for "Report." Anyone experienced this problem too?

Its not good to put tags which are not related to the topics, moreover if someone put the tags "Guideline Violation" that is extremely weird if the discussion or the topic is not violating the guidelines. People who have started the discussion won't feel good if anybody put a tag "Violating Guidelines". Its just fun for those who does these kind of stupid things. But they won't understand that it can drag them into trouble at future if MyLot officials find nothing violating guidelines but they are headed to waste their time.

Guideline violation is relevant to any discussion. It means that the discussion contains content that is not allowed by myLot. They might of put that there to make moderators checking the discussions to find the discussion that is violating a rule faster.

A topic asking 'how many money making sites have you joined?' is not a discussion. It is a poll and as polls are not allowed it is a violation of the Guidelines. Possibly someone has reported it and when doing so added thr tag to warn others not to respond as they will lose their response too when the whole thing is deleted. If you take your rime to read the Guidelines you will: a) understand why your discussion has that tag b) why the others in the second link have that tag c) what to do to avoid seeing that tag appear in your topics d) why other users are reporting and adding it.
