The user is recorded in the bb_tagged table. In that table are
tag_id
user_id
topic_id
tagged_on
From there, you could figure out the tag_id of the offending tag, then who applied that tag. Then you could deal with it.
Personally though, I just delete stupid tags.
It’s a small forum, but I don’t really get people tagging and I’m not sure I see the use in general anyway (if no-one minds a discussion?). I’m really just tagging because it’s there. I can see how it’s useful for images, yeah, but topics doesn’t seem to be the sort of thing tags are useful for. They lend themselves to text-based searching so well anyway. Maybe if you really liked reading through topics by theme?
heh heh heh
And we’ve been told that staff couldn’t see who made tags over in wp.com land.
I didn’t mention it when it was brought up, but I knew that when that was brought up drmike!

Actually I can’t see them digging through the databases like that just to do a lookup for a tag.
If they would, they would had dug for all those attached to the Girly Themes thread. “Sexist” “Stupid” etc.
Point is, it would be a simple plugin to right to create a tag cloud of the tags that a person puts up by pulling the information from the database as an admin tool though.
