Can you guys maybe add a [Hacker] or [Programmer] tag in red? Please and thank you!

Edited for clarity as I felt I came off a bit hostile and nondescript. : p

I would like to begin my response by thanking you for suggesting this and letting us give you feedback on it.
At this point in time, I do not think that this addition is necessary or beneficial for PartyZone's community as I'll be explaining in my points below.

If we were to implement this, I believe it would take a more serious effect compared to the list of current silly and simple tags we have.
It can become problematic in the future, as my concern is that players can easily misinterpret these tags.


Hacker:
It can perhaps give new players the impression that if you have been caught hacking in the past, you receive the tag "Hacker."
That in itself may turn them away from the network.


Programmer:
This can also give new players the impression that they assisted in developing the network. There are several definitions to "programmer" as the word is broad.
However, due to the seriousness of the word, tag, and the color it would be, I believe it is too similar to the Developer tag or administration tags.


For the reasons I've listed and the concerns I have, I will be voting -1.

I'm going to disagree with the implementation of this suggestion for the sole purpose that this can be confusing for new players.

If you view the list of all of our tags, all of them are either silly or emotions.
By implementing these tags, it takes a more serious turn and it can become concerning when players can easily misinterpret the tag.

Additionally, it *perhaps* can give new players the impression that if you hack or have been caught hacking, that you get that tag.
That in itself may turn them away from the network.

I feel as it just wouldn't make sense or is necessary to implement these, especially when you're putting them between all the other tags. They sort of just awkwardly stand out more and have more negatives than positives, from my point of view. -1
I understand where you’re coming from when it comes to the hacker tag, but what about the programmer tag? I don’t see where that would cause any issues for newer players.

I’m undecided on this suggestion. I don’t have any opinions on it currently.

I've edited my message above for clarity as I feel like I didn't fully cover that.
