What happened to this tag? Honestly, to me, this tag is really something I look for in a story. I know some people avoid this tag like the plague since it means the character they’re shipping/rooting for will never have a chance. However, this tag is really realistic. I find it difficult and improbable to believe that characters would willingly allow/accept their lover to have sexual relations with others whilst already being in an relationship. Maybe this is because I’m getting married in the coming month, but it really is depressing that I can’t find this tag anymore. Was it removed? Is there a reason why? There are so many useless tags, so why this one specifically? I’m interested in hearing your guy’s opinion on this too. (Personally, I get really annoyed thinking about polygamy, even though it’s considered “normal” in many novel settings/universes. Mostly because I could never imagine myself even remotely doing such a thing whilst being in a deep relationship.)

*quick update

a few months ago there was a discussion and vote about that tag

resume of discussion:
protagonist can only remain loyal to love interest if there is some sort of test
test must be forced on either parties unwillingly aka (rape or reverse rape)
conclusion: tag can be absorved by NTR tag
vote was sucessful and tag eliminated and NTR  tag replace it as necessary

This discussion remind me of that novel title from Q, "Paradise of Demons and Gods" that got turned into "Paradise of Demonic Gods".
Can't seem to see how or why exactly does a "test" even need? And the conclusion somehow only conclude the "Bad end"(NTR), and remove the "Good end"(NTR Prevail)?

A good example is Lord Xue Ying. Although the romance dies in the later story to the point of nearly becoming inconsequential, it is still one of my best reads. (Like most IET novels, loyalty is a key factor in his stories, something I love.) I haven’t read Rebirth Of The Thief Who Roamed The World in a while, (ended up at C400 which was the latest update at the time) but that was also a lovely novel if I can recall properly. (I read too many novels so I struggle to remember the plot for most after a few months.)

Isn't it the Mod job to Officially adding a tag if the meaning seem appropriate? So if a tag disappeared then, only a mod could do it.
I also checked in Series Finder just now and the tag really disappeared.
*Poke @Shio*
I agree with how there are many useless tags. One of the tags I hate the most is "Lucky Protagonist".....God Damn It this tag....Can someone Explain Clearly what this tag define in a novel?....Like for Fricking sake, when a Xianxia Novel that has an MC Heavily Armed with "Plot Armor", why Can't that be define as "Lucky Protagonist"?...The guy Literally find treasures here, treasures there with no effort, or even just a random drop, or even someone just Frickingly tell him....I'm damn mad with how everytimes I read a Xianxia novel, or even JP and KR novel that were similar to that aspect, I tried to add in that tag, but someone else removed it right away.

Wait, what happened in Lord Xue Ying? I thought he married the female lead and they even had children? They even married quite early on in the story, if I recalled correctly. She survived until the end, right? He left the universe to search for a way to make her live forever. Or was it something about the universe's destruction and he wanted to find a way to bring his family out along with him. I remember he reached the highest cultivation level and even met the protagonists of the author's other novels.
