I really don't like sr3 and sr4 forums being combined. People are not tagging their posts, and I wind up reading about a whole bunch of stuff that I don't want to.
The tagging discipline is actually better than I foresaw. Maybe the admins are going through and editing them?
Solutions I have thought to try:
Respond to the thread as though it pertained to the edition you want to read about. When someone says the poster was referring to edition X, or better yet, that it was obvious from "some edition specific language" that the original poster was referring to edition X, act all innocent and reply that you were confused by the omission of any edition tag.
Nag Politely ask the original poster to properly tag his thread. If the thread cannot be tagged after posting by the OP, politely asking will do no real good for that thread, but it will serve as a polite nag for everyone else.

Nag Politely request the admins to edit the thread to include the proper tag.

I do like the concept of having all the editions combined and using the edition tags, but edition tag discipline needs to be observed to make it work.
If there is a good solution, such as mandatory edition tagging to post a new thread, or something else, I am all for hearing about it.
