Where are some of the gaps? I think the most important missing tag is the lowbie friendly one. Higher level players can always exemp down, but lowbies can seldom go up safely. There is a "my level" option in the search now, so people can choose missions that won't exemp or sk them. That isn't quite the same, though. Custom enemies are level 1-54, that doesn't mean a level 1 has a snowball's chance of completing the mission.

The "for hire" tag is missing. I rather like that one. It fits in between the heroic and villainous morality options. On the other hand, "neutral" is a morality option. Was that always there?

I don't care about the server tags, but maybe other people do?

There could be a lot more genre tags.

What do you all think?

Worth revisiting this topic to consider i17 EXP Compliance as a tag?
