Fuck people, what's the problem with you? Commenting like this on Tumblr I can understand (it's your blog, it's your goddamn business if you suck at tagging), but tagging on an ARCHIVE has a function: namely, organization and retrieval of stories.
Tagging is a tool to help your story be found more easily and accurately by the exact kind of people you want to read it. So, you have an Alice/Bob story? You tag it: Alice, Bob, the name of your ship, and your genre (romance, drama, angst, hurt/comfort, etc.), maybe a warning if needed. That's it, all the information your readers need.
For the love of god don't tag Alice's aunt who has like two lines around chapter 15. It's about your main characters; if you tag a minor character you're implying said story is about them, which is not the case, and the only thing you're accomplishing with that is pissing actual fans of said character and wasting people's time reading something they are not interesting in (or are you trying to change their minds? Well, your writing better be stellar if that's what you're trying to do).
So, in a nutshell: only tag things that ARE IMPORTANT to your story. Save your comments for your author's notes/blog. You'll look cooler and attract better readers that way.
