We believe those would be quite sufficient,@Mahz.

We got to laugh at the fact you actually added avatar grayscale function... It makes us chuckle.
hmm... The goblin on our middle shoulder says "Is there a way to automatically grayscale all avatars?"...
Looks nice either way. Gray does mesh better with everything else, though.
We sometimes agree, but some people will want to search for fandoms like that when they try to find RPs. For many, its a safe place to start. Its familiar to them.
They should probably not be established as more than a few before the hierarchy system is put in.
we like the idea of tag hierarchy. Its the logical solution to lots of tags.
for such, we'd suggest a tags to go in both under Sci-fi and under fandom:
Star Wars - Lightsabers, the Force and floppy-eared gungans
RPs from that particular fandom tend to crop up on a regular basis. Same can probably be said for some anime fandoms, but we're not familiar enough with any of them to say for sure which pop up on a regular basis.
to facilitate tag requests in a hopefully more orderly fashion @Mahz, we set up this topic for it.
Ok, the purpose of this thread is simple... Eventually, as the guild's tag system evolves, more and more requests will come in for fairly unique tags. Rather than constantly cluttering @Mahz Dev Journal with said requests, we figure it would be good to have a single topic where people can request tags, and of course potentially discuss the merits of whether a certain fandom/theme/goblin should get its own tag.
Recently proposed by @Mahz is the system of having a small set of official guild tags that are fairly static, defining the general category of an RP. These tags would define what level of writing is expected in an RP (Free, casual, Advanced), whether it is a regular RP with single characters, a nation, an arena match, a 1x1, or such, and the general genre of the RP (Sci-fi, Fantasy, Anime, Fandom, etc.)
The second system of tags, which would be subordinate to this is will be community-defined. This can be anything from established universes like Star Wars, Mass Effect & DC Comics to the stranger stuff like Jupiter, Birthing and ReverseBirthing (Ask @Mahz what that is if you want to know. It was his idea). In essence, whatever the community wants.
But to keep the community tag system viable and not bloated with tags that only have 1-2 RPs to them, which would not help a search function much, the tags would be moderated, either through an approval system, or through other means. Ideas for how that is best done are very welcome.
Anyways, on to the tags that have been suggested.
Some fandom-specific genres have also been suggested:
Star Wars
Marvel comics
DC comics
Pokemon
Elder Scrolls
Mass effect
Harry Potter
There has also been suggested a type of "tonal" tags, to define what sort of story in a certain setting it is. For example, a fantasy RP can be both comedic, grim and epic.
Players might want to find RPs that do their best to stick to Canon fandom, or perhaps they'd rather avoid messing with Canon or other things like that. The following suggestions cover that.
Have any other suggestions? Don't hesitate to post them.

they've had a majority for more than a generation yes. We'd guess the old othean religion probably didn't catch the hearts and minds of people. Which is part of the reason why Idris got the way it did in Othea. There are still people alive who remember the times before Idris had such free reins, but those are all elderly. Everyone else remembers nothing but Idris being highly influential.
Actually, its never really been defined what the religion was in othea prior to Idris gaining significant influence.
yes, it would be nice to have it less marked. If anything, the size of that and the "go to last post" link buttons should be switched.
