Tag nuke: crossed_legs_(sitting)

Since crossed_legs already implies sitting, the tag crossed_legs_(sitting) is redundant.

post #1409300 = crossed legs while standing, among other posts. And by that I mean posts where the tag is used without the character sitting.

If anything, why do we have separate tags for different positions of crossed_legs and it implied to sitting when it would make much more sense to have crossed_legs neutral than simply use the sitting, standing, or lying_down tags as needed?

Sorry, I responded too quickly.

That's not a bad idea either. It would at least be more intuitive, and tag combo searches like "crossed_legs standing" don't look like they would be any less accurate than the current crossed_legs_(standing) if posts were properly tagged with standing/sitting/lying.

Bumping to create a resolution.

The options are

If we go with option A, we'll also need to alias the more specific tags to crossed_legs:

remove implication crossed_legs -> sitting
create alias crossed_legs_(sitting) -> crossed_legs
create alias crossed_legs_(lying) -> crossed_legs
create alias crossed_legs_(standing) -> crossed_legs

+1 for doing this, I think these subtags are a bit too specific and unnecessary.

Also: I just made sure all crossed_legs_(sitting/standing/lying) posts are tagged with sitting/standing/lying too, so that the aliases I mentioned can be done.
