Introducing the Updated Room Tag System
We're excited to share some important updates to our tagging system that will make your experience in Rec Room even better! We've been working hard to refine the way you categorize and discover UGC rooms, and we're introducing a more organized approach.
Primary Genre Tags
What are Primary Tags? Primary tags are the backbone of our new tagging system. Every room now needs to have one primary tag. These tags are predetermined and carefully curated to cover a broad range of genres. This ensures consistency and makes it much easier for you to find UGC rooms that match your interests.
Choose the Right Primary Tag Select the primary tag that best represents the main genre or theme of your room. It's like giving your room a genre label, making it instantly recognizable to others.
Where Do You See Primary Tags? Primary tags will be prominently displayed underneath the room and creator’s name, making it quick and easy for you to identify the room's primary purpose.
Secondary Genre Tags
What are Secondary Tags? Secondary tags complement the primary tags by offering additional context to your room. They also come from the same list of predetermined tags, covering all the genres not included in the primary tags.
How Many Secondary Tags Can You Add? You can add up to two secondary tags to your room. However, it's important to note that you cannot duplicate any primary tags as secondary tags.
Where Do You See Secondary Tags? Secondary tags will be displayed alongside primary tags, but they'll appear in a different color chip to distinguish them.
Additional Tags
Our tagging system doesn't stop at primary and secondary tags. We understand that sometimes, you want to add specific details that go beyond genres. That's where "Additional Tags" come into play:
"Custom" Tags: These tags are for any unique or customized elements in your room.
Programmatic Tags: Autogenerated by the RR system
Coming Soon: The Full List of Tags
While the initial update is focused on the user interface (UI), we're working hard to provide you with a comprehensive list of primary and secondary tags that cover all genres and themes. Stay tuned for more updates on this front!
These improvements to our tagging system are designed to enhance your experience in Rec Room, making it easier than ever to find rooms that match your interests and preferences. We can't wait for you to try out the new system and discover even more amazing UGC rooms.
If you have any questions or feedback, don't hesitate to reach out to us. Your input is invaluable as we continue to improve your Rec Room experience.
Thank you for being a part of our vibrant community, and happy tagging!
