THIS.

I had no idea people were using the tag to mean "I just don't wanna tag my stuff" until today. That just seems so nonsensical to me. You don't wanna tag your stuff, so you'r...tagging your stuff to tell me you don't want to tag your stuff?

OTOH, I definitely DO remember conversations back in the old days of people discussing the appropriateness and usefulness of "chose not to warn" as a way for people who didn't want to spoil their fics of still warning people.

Obviously the way that the tag is being used has shifted significantly. Which is kind of what the secret is about in the first place. Except I thought people were now using the tag as a catch all (which I can understand even if it is inconvenient), whereas apparently people are using this tag because they...don't like using tags.

They have to tag their stuff with SOMETHING regardless, so... yes?

Not wanting to spoil the fic is just one reason that people have for choosing not to warn. If CNTW was just a tag for people too wishy-washy to use (for example) the graphic violence tag, CNTW would still be a spoiler that graphic violence definitely occurs within the fic.

I feel like you have a fundamental misunderstanding of the warnings wanks of yore.

I think the way it's being used is still the same, some people are just confused about it's basic meaning.
