Minor ships tagged.

Really? I tend to be much more annoyed when they don't tag those things. A lot of my NoTP's tend to be popular side ships to my main, so the more the better I find. Especially when the side ship has a niche following, it makes it much more easier to find. Ntm, the type of side ship an author prefers generally (or at least used to i guess) tells more about the style and brand of a fic better than any info or tag generally does, I find.

DA
I just wish there was a special tag category that makes it clear which the main CP and side CP is.

ayrt
Generally the first tag is typically the main one for the most part. I find that most people in my main fandoms tend to tag ships as being minor or side in the tag itself. It does suck that it's not a universal thing, but by far I'd rather people use the relationship tag to tag all ships accurately, rather than find 1/3 of the fic being focused on something I have no interest in/particularly dislike.
I guess I'm lucky where I can't actually recall anything where I've been disappointed specifically because I was expecting a different paring to be the main focus. I tend to go through wayy too much fic on the daily though, so I might just not remember those specifically.

Yup, this is annoying as hell. I have a small ship in a big-ish fandom and I swear 80% of their fic is them being tagged as a non-existent side-pair for another ship and it's infuriating. Like the extra tags bit is where you can put side-ships without it turning up in that ships tag. That warns people if there's a Notp of theirs in it, and it doesn't flood the side-ships tag with fic that isn't ever focused on them.
