What value does adding the tag flash have?
Other games aren't tagged with the technology used to make them.
It seems to me that if there has to be an additional tag it should be browser-based.
Thoughts?

I was more thinking that the tag should really be browser-based rather than being removed completely.– ChrisFCommented Jan 3, 2013 at 21:59

@murgatroid99: I didn't notice that question. I thought all current uses of the tag were being used to denote the game was a flash game. I've edited my answer to reflect this.– Wipqozn ModCommented Jan 3, 2013 at 22:03

It exists because tags used to be removed if there weren't two questions with that tag, which flash questions usually wouldn't get. Now that that's been disabled for us, there's no further use for the flash tag.
