slavechylde recently said that he doesn't care much for the default tags and yeah, I agree - they suck.
So, let's get right to it!
What tags should remove from the publish page?
Which ones should we add?
All in all I want to end up with a list that is shorter than the current one, but don't let that stop you from suggesting new tags that you'd like to see.
Personally, I like how extensive the tagging list is, but there are a few things that I think people would like to see added, a couple based on some of those topics "help me find ___ teases." Since you're overall goal is to eliminate unnecessary/unused tags that could be added through custom tags if desired enough, here's some to consider:
enema (Very few teases use this.)
hot-wax (Not many teases with this, either.)
exhibitionism (A little ambiguous, so it's not used very well.)
foodplay (Don't see many teases with food.)
private-humiliation public-humiliation verbal-humiliation (Three humiliation tags could be combined into one.)
kneeling (Not a very strong fetish/anti-fetish for people, I think. Can't really see somebody searching for a tease specifically with kneeling.)
urethral-insertion (Really don't see many of these either.)
gagging (Kind of unclear... Could have to do with being gagged, or forced to deep-throat something.)
shaving (Very few teases here too.)
That leaves...
anal
cbt
bondage
pain
nipple-torture
chastity
cum-eating
chores
exercise
feminization
forced-orgasms
orgasm-denial
outdoors
scat
spanking
And ones that would be really nice to see added:
domination (To distinguish from the following tag.)
friendly / kind (Where the girl isn't all dominating.)
chance / randomness (Where random numbers or dice are involed.)
urine (Maybe I overlooked it and it's really there, but I see a scat tag and no urine tag.)
Finally, for the future, it'd be nice to tag teases with whether there's orgasming involved, and whether or not it's ruined. Ruined orgasms are something I really like, and come up a lot in the topics looking for types of teases. So "orgasm" or "ruined-orgasm" tag would be nice, with the option to make them visible or not for those who don't like to know until the end of the tease.

For me, I like not knowing if there's an orgasm (ruined or otherwise) at the end. Having a tag up front kind of takes away from the fun. Sure, that only counts for the first time you do/read the tease but that's the most exciting one anyways.
If there were a general options place where you could change viewing options, it contain an option to select a language as well as display whether or not to display the orgasm tabs. And while I prefer to not know the outcome of a tease before I start it, what would be cool would be able to view teases with orgasm, ruined, forced, or none when I know that's what I wanted!
Just as a practical note, I think it would be nice to have a "series" tag to identify teases that have prequals/sequals.
Also, I'd like a general toggle for teases that take equipment or some other investment (like going out and buying panties) other than two hands and a chair.
But I would really like to see a tag for Flashteases
Also if we are eliminating some
Why is orgasm-denial a tag?
Isn't this the point of the entire site?
It seems (to me anyway) a bit redundant tag.
I'm not sure how difficult the programming
end of this idea is but here’s the idea anyway:
I wish there was some way to change my default search preference
So that I could (when I login) I would see: most viewed (or whatever my last search was)
Example: Last time I searched for CBT so when I hit webteasese I get… CBT as my current search (instead of most resent)
Looking around the site I found some older teases
with tags that don't have a link (?)
Examples: Lube, shoelace, chastity, dildo, ect.
It might be interesting to include them as well (?)
(would that be a search by: toys?)

No, most definitely not. Orgasm denial just happens to work with the webtease format particularly well (as the name webtease implies), but there are quite a few teases now that have no stroking and/or denial instructions.
I get what you mean, but I'd like to keep the tag, if only to emphasize that webteases do not have to be about T&D every single time.

Off-topic, but yeah I've been thinking about that one. I wouldn't make the filters persistent by default, but in the form of an option like "remember my browsing option", sure, why not? Thanks for the suggestion.

Great suggestions so far, keep 'em coming, I'll put together a revised list in the end.
Thanks for taking up this subject. Just to be clear, I never said they suck. :)
I just think there are a few that have little utility, while we're missing a few.
This is just my opinion, so feel free to take it or leave it. As long as I have Custom Tags, I am good to go. ;)
Tags are meant to be informative. They not only are supposed to indicate teases that interest you, but they should also tip you off to teases that may not be your cup of tea. So, the question becomes which tags are used regularly, and which tags can be entered via Custom Tags.
Besides the mandatory tags, these are the optional tags we have:
Most of these are okay. But, a couple I think could be removed and entered via Custom tags include: chores, enema, foodplay, gagging, hot-wax , scat, urethral-insertion, urine-play
I did a quick, random scan of the tags throughout the index, and those tags were rarely, if ever used. All the rest have been used regularly enough to maintain them. WRT hot-wax, I'd recommend changing it to candle-wax or dripping-wax - I am not sure hot-wax resonates with everyone.
Kneeling was called out by someone else as one to lose, but I would disagree. It's used fairly regularly, and, as I indicated before, tags can be used to alert someone to a tease they want to skip as much as one they want to do. I see urethral-insertion, and I am out of there! :)
Most of these are okay, but several are never, or rarely used. Those could be entered via Custom Tags (e.g., corset, diaper, enema-kit, pen-and-paper, q-tips, ribbon, sandpaper, shaving-tools, sneaker, stopwatch, tampon)
The following are some tags I recommend for inclusion (YMMV):
One could argue that chastity-belt and chastity-device are the same thing; but I would argue they are not. I would argue that, in this day in time, a chastity-belt is more connected to women, while a chastity-device spans both genders and more than one type of chastity mechanism.
I was also thinking that it might nice to have a tag for shemale since I've seen people mention they hate getting blindsided by it. And it would be nice to not have to tie the authors hands about what to title their tease just to give a heads up.

She-male would be an excellent addition. Good idea.
instead of having the default tags allow the tags to be searchable in the search box maybe? Eliminates default altogether, but still allows people to search for their specific interests.
