Re: [myexperiment-hackers] Deleting tags

[Sergejs Aleksejevs]

Morning everyone,

I've just spoken to Jits about this and there's one thing that might not 
be immediately obvious. The users will only be allowed to delete the 
tags that were added by themself - e.g. tags added by others can only be 
removed by whoever added it. Therefore, there will not be that many 
greyed out crosses (at least not next to each tag anyway).
