HELLO THIS IS A MOD POST! and by post, we mean PARTY!

[architect]

Happy well-into-the-New Year, inception! cherrybina and I would like to greet you all, for we are your new mods, and we are here to serve you! Also to party. We don't care which order we go in. As a refresher, the community rules are listed on the profile, and if you have any questions or concerns, you can reach us on the mod contact page, or via PM.

As part of our new regime of frippery we want to remind you about some community basics, which boil down to 1) BE NICE, and 2) USE TAGS.

Tags? What are those?! you ask, and we answer: Tags are our community organizational tools. When you make a post, please select from any of our existing tags that apply to your content, and tag your post accordingly.

Currently we have type tags - fic, media, announcement, podfic, etc - pairing tags, character tags, and rating tags. Everyone can add a tag to a post, so if you see a post going untagged, feel free to tag it! TAG CURATING IS FUN, GUYS, scroll through the old posts and try it! You can find new fic and all kinds of things that way. We highly recommend it! :D

Speaking of which, if you're looking for new things related to the Inception fandom, there are a number of communities that have sprung up lately on Dreamwidth for you to check out if you haven't already:

arthur_eames, the brand-spanking-new Arthur/Eames community!

inception_het, for all het pairings and variants thereof. This isn't active yet, but it exists, so join and help get it started!

reception, for themed rec posts, challenges, and general fic smorgasbords!

inception_kink, your inception knk meme on DW! Note the comm rules listed on the sole post.

inceptiondaily_feed, the feed for inception_daily on livejournal!

---

As your mods, we would like to encourage you to make this community active and fun! See some news about Dileep or Ken's latest project? post it! Want to share with us that hot photo of Tom Hardy's face? ALWAYS! inception is what you make it, and we hope you will make it fun and busy and a place to come for news, fics, fandom fests, challenges, squee, and general good times.

That said, we realize that our systematic and highly functional tagging system is a bit on the staid side. Okay, boring as fuck.

So we have a proposition for you guys:

TAG PARTY!

WTF is a tag party: it is where you tell us what zany totally non-organizational fun tags you want us to use here at inception.

How do I participate:
1. comment to this post
2. tell us what awesome tag YOU want to see us use, and give us an illustration of how you'd use that tag :D

Example: Tag: 'too much champagne before takeoff' -- for use whenever you are TOO EXCITED TO THINK ABOUT ANYTHING ELSE EXCEPT THIS THING YOU HAVE TO POST RIGHT NOW.
3. Make up as many tags as you want! Comment and boost your favorite tags (and example usages) created by other people! We will choose the ones we and the community love the best, so that you can all use your favorites!

Ready?
Set?
TAG!

i think we should start with an "ALL THE FEELINGS" tag.

for example: if someone posted a picture or let's say...a review from warrior, i would use that tag.

in fact i'd say you could probably use it on a lot of stuff in fandom since it generally gives us all the feelings ever haha.

[architect]

AGREED. SO MANY FEELINGS ALL THE TIME. <333333333

[monopoli]

well, i know that i at least would use that tag on your icon. WHAT A GREAT ICON. CHRISTMAS LIGHTS ON TOM HARDY'S FACE. no. tom hardy's shirt. i get distracted by his face sometimes. ALL THE FEELINGS.

[asunder]

my friend made it for me for christmas, and i have to admit that i love it so much i want to use it all year long. HE MAKES THE PERFECT CHRISTMAS TREE, Y/Y? :D

[monopoli]

YES OMG. also those lights would not look amiss on anything else eames would wear, so it seems oddly appropriate for the character, haha.

[lick_j]

Does this mean Arthur will be the perfect angel on top of it? XD

(sorry for just marching it)

[asunder]

hahaha yes!

Re: Reception community needs a tag party as well /o\

[lick_j]

YES...for the "shameless crack" tag! obviously XD

[valonia]

There should be a BRRRRRM tag. For what, I don't know.

[foxxcub]

I really feel there should be a MY EMOTIONS tag on like, anything to do with Tom Hardy's face.

[classlicity]

DAT ASS, obviously.

[aerisaturner]

I think my favourite A/E tags I've come across are:

1. Arthur-leads-Eames-on-a-merry-chase where I basically sit there for the majority of the fic going OH ARTHUR you silly boy, don't you see that you love Eames and he loves you too!?

2. Arthur-and-Eames-steal-things-and-each-others-hearts probably the best kind of fic IMO. The boys participate in a job (or more) within the course of the fic and fall in ~love <3 :D

There are others...but I cannot think of any more rn.

[quandjebois]

I think Tom Hardy's body deserves it's own tag, like "I would climb that like a tree," because:







and everything cherrybina has every posted.

[lick_j]

seconded on "I would climb that like a tree"


(unrelated feeling gif is unrelated) XD

[quandjebois]

Haha, that's pretty much how I would respond if I saw THard in real life, so I think it's perfectly apt.

[shaded_sun]

The tags mentioned so far are great, but I know that if I was going to post something, I'll probably forget what that perfect-but-very-long tag was.

But anyway:
-CUDDLES (because hot porn is not quite complete without lazy cuddling)
-bb!boys in love (rather self explanatory ;)
-fake boyfrands (ditto)
-BAMFs
-good boy (this can be jailbait!Arthur with older Eames -Arthur can be such a good boy for Eames- or something like Skeller's Rule10, or even both of them as adults and a bit of a D/s thing going on)

[wldcatsprstr_14]

We should definitely have a "How are you real?" tag, as well as an "OMFG his faaaaace!" tag.

"brb dead" would not be amiss either.
