Full Disclosure Time- Sonata de Equestria · 10:00pm Apr 2nd, 2013
At the beginning, I only added one tag to Sonata de Equestria becuase I treated tags as merely labels defining the genre. SdE is, through and through, an adventure story, nothing more, nothing less. This by itself is certainly not a bad thing, I'm sure none of you would be following the story if it was.
But we've come to a crossroads.
In the very near future, Sonata de Equestria will have some Romantic elements featured. It's not going to drop the Adventure, that's just silly, but it's going to have some characters falling in love with others. Plain and simple.
I know that Sonata de Equestria will not become a romance novel, that's just not my style, but I realize that many readers on here do not appreciate sudden romance in their adventure stories.
Therefore, I will be adding a romance tag as a forewarning to all future readers.
I just want people to know what they're getting into, as a common courtesy.
I, honestly don't see the need for this. My stories have plenty of humor in them, but you'll notice that they're not all Comedies. I say unless romance is a central theme, stick with the tags you got.

I agree with this on all fronts, and that's exactly why I haven't added the tag before now. However...
I wouldn't call romance a theme, but it is a relatively large portion of the story, and features heavily into character development.
I've been pretty indecisive about this for a while, but I honestly think my decision is for the best.
