Aliasing gamer_cat → gamercat
Link to alias

Reason:

Making an official suggestion so it doesn't get lost.

Current use of gamer_cat should be moved to the_gamercat before the alias is made. See previous thread for more info and related suggestions: https://e621.net/forum/show/166044

I've made the following changes (in no particular order):

• Moved all of the current gamercat character tags (except gamercat) to *_(the_gamercat)
• Alias: gamer_cat -> the_gamercat (approved)
• Implication: gamercat -> the_gamercat (approved)
• Implication: glitch_(the_gamercat) -> the_gamercat (approved)
• Implication: pixel_(the_gamercat) -> the_gamercat (approved)
• Implication: sweet_(the_gamercat) -> the_gamercat (approved)
• Implication: nano_(the_gamercat) -> the_gamercat (approved)
• Some logical aliases that are too boring to list (e.g., glitch_(gamercat) -> glitch_(the_gamercat))
• Did my best at removing non-gamercat (the character) tags from gamercat

Shouldn't the_gamercat be the copyright and gamercat_(character) be the character?

You're probably right, I'll move those now.

Edit: Done

I don't want to be out of line, but why is the_gamercat still in the character section? Does it take over two months for this to be approved? Are there just that many things in the pipeline? I'm not trying to be rude, I just want to know if people should adjust blacklists and RSS feeds and such.

I though it was simply that someone uploaded new thing and used tag as character tag instead of copyright and converted it as newest upload didn't have the character tag at all and usually it's possible to convert tags into other forms, but:
<p>Tag type cannot be changed: Permission Denied when trying to change tag "the_gamercat" to type copyright</p>

welp, I tried.

I swear I changed this one a while ago, but it might have been changed back since then. Either way it's now a copyright tag again.

Thanks for letting me know.
