Not really any need to elabroate, you’ve pretty much covered it! In some jurisdictions Minor1 and other concent is illegal to view even in text or drawn form so it is very useful to have the tags to avoid legal trouble aside from tigger factors [Edit: Trigger factors. Typo, not a Winnie the Pooh ref.] or personal ickyness factors. It’s also why I raised picture hotlinks appearing in the forum  – I think I suggested that they should instead just have a link to content with description, and the forum adapted the current policy as the most workable.
Sci-fi doesn’t have to be in the future though, It really depends which elements you include. Same as fantasy doesn’t have to be in the past with a map and such. All you need is a Gorgon trying to get her hair tamed in time for the commuter train into the city. “Yeah, I had another groper today. My bush bit him right on the fingers.”
I had a quick scan through and that’s… that's probably for the best. I’ll do a full read/review later.

Thank you for the info. I added some additional warnings and put the rape tag back in, just to cover the bases. I don’t think I went terribly over a line for the context but you never know.  Like you say, it is a tough balance when you could potentially mislead people in different directions, either false advertising or not warning them enough.
Is your 10K one Jefferey? That one did catch my eye because you seemed to be very happy with it in your Promote thread. Sci-Fi is one of my favorite genres so I will read a few others, too.

Depends on the original. Male Male with a vampire, werewolf or real estate agent you’re probably good to go.

I need to mention the other reason for tags, it can be illegal to access certain materials on this website from other countries.  Minor1/2 are such tags, JayDee could elaborate on this.

Ha, I was trying to figure out how the tags worked since it is the first time I have posted anything. I found this forum very helpful and I had to go back and fix the archive submission after I understood it better.
I honestly don’t want higher views because people think there is rape in it. I tried to be as accurate as possible with the tags given. There is a thread about this, I saw, so I might ask more questions over there.

If you do a statistical analysis comparing views:reviews by author, cross-referencing genre, sub domain, and tags, that would be worthy of a PowerPoint presentation, or a leaderboard. 
I am going on a review campaign. 10K views deserves reviews.

The mods definitely appreciate you fixing it before they notice it.  
I’ve been mulling over the best way to balance disclosure vs advertising vs not-spoiling the story for ages on this, because the reader must be warned before they encounter (say [xeno]).  If, for instance, a small section, one scene for a 500+kword story, well that [xeno] tag might be disappointing to a reader expecting it, and it’s a bit of a spoiler if you weren’t wanting to disclose that there were indeed aliens showing up in the story.  But the good rule of thumb, around here, is when in doubt, tag it in, because they are first and foremost, a warning.  At the top of my stories, I will qualify if the tag is an incidental or questionable (ie, I’ll list minor1 if an underage kid is merely naked, regardless of whether he/she is sexual or not, it’s enough of a trigger).

Hmmm… sounds like a challenge, might do that if I get a chance to look at the site code…  Though I’d probably conclude that there is no real correlation.   And sometimes, it’s a round robin halloween/holiday stories, and I will try to review each one of those.
Rape is one of those trigger tags, stands out like Minor1.  Having a shit ton of tags can be a detractor, so I’ve been shifting most of my tags into the top of the story, keeping the major/advertising types (+other) in the summary.   The distinction helps those searching for tags they want to read vs those they just need to know are incidentals (ie isolated  handjobs), I’ll even qualify those incidentals if warranted (ie, why a tag is being applied if its kinda iffy or even “maybe/anticipated”).

Has anyone found a ratio of how many “dragon prints” to reviews stories get, on average? It seems very stratified, so maybe that wouldn’t be valuable.
I thought it was interesting that I had a rape tag on a fic, but I changed it because it wasn’t really quite the right tag, and noticed the “dragon prints” rate dropped significantly (from about 30 per hour to 30 per 4 or 5 hours).
In addition to the popularity of the subdomain and the tags, I would think the more visibility (or at least visibility to a target audience, even if small) the better chance of a review.
