Because of the special case of using game titles as tags here, and sometimes having only one question about a game, that system just doesn't work [as in, it's disabled entirely on Arqade --bp], so we're aggressive about not creating tags that aren't going to see widespread usage. | |
| Apr 5, 2014 at 16:55 | comment | added | Kendall Frey | I see. As someone using Stack Overflow primarily, it just makes sense to have more specific tags on a question. It makes it easier to search for questions on a specific topic. If you have some links that expand on said "historical and practical reasons", they would be greatly appreciated. | |

unless there's significant community consensus here on Meta that we want to chop things up further - It's rare, but it does happen, and Redstone is the banner example.
