The reason for there being three tags as opposed to five is because people could spam there projects by using all the tags. If you were looking for a game in the game tag, it could be full of animations/maps! I'm not saying there's nothing nice about more tags, it would be very useful and you can still spam with three tags, but there would be a lot less spam then there would be with five.

Using tag limits to deal with a different underlying problem isn't the way to go I think. Plus, your logic doesn't make a lot of sense. I can still tag a project as “game” “animation” and “map” with the 3 tag limit. Spam won't magically appear if the limit is increased.

To address the issue of spam though, it could be that New Scratchers have the 3 tag limit while Scratchers have 5.

Support for that.
Additionally, perhaps we could make tag spamming against the rules (if it isn't already).

You may have always been fine with tags, but lots of others clearly aren't. That's like me saying: “Oh, I don't support having a costume editor. I have always been fine with the default costumes.”

Please think through your posts and give detailed reasons for not supporting.

Okay, If you use your tags wisely, 3 is enough. Give me an example project where you would like more. Tell me what they would be.

A long time ago there were 6 tags. They were reduced to 3 cause of spam. (Information from the ST/Scratch Wiki)

Support. Yes, people could spam, but people can always spam. Maybe there should be infinite tags. or, maybe when you're a new scratcher, you only get 3 and when you become a Scratcher you get five. I find that 3 tags doesn't describe my project well enough.
