Topic: [REJECTED] Tag alias: speech_change -> verbal_reaction_to_tf

The tag alias #80567 speech_change -> verbal_reaction_to_tf has been rejected.

Reason: these seem to be about the same thing? the tf tags are really weird on this website

EDIT: The tag alias speech_change -> verbal_reaction_to_tf (forum #471217) has been rejected by @spe.

verbal_reaction_to_tf is a pretty poor tag that should be aliased away. It's one of many tags created by someone who really wanted to tag every text and dialog detail they could think of, and in this case just means a character is making any kind of verbal reaction to a transformation that they or someone else is going through (which could be as little as a grunt, or a "what the...", to a wall of text describing what's happening in detail). Something that's too specific while also being vague about what it actually is, IMO.

In contrast, speech_change seems to be about a character having more than one "voice", regardless of means. It could be a result of a transformation, such as changing from English to poke-speak, or something like a possession, where an entity talks through someone else, or where someone starts talking with a different speech pattern.
