I was fishing this way last night and keep the main line tight - I had 3 carp and lost 2 - the tight line didn't seem to bother the carp too much though a couple of time I saw a bow wave move out of the swim so I suspect the line had spooked the carp.
I did try fishing with slack lines but didn't get any bites this way, so the question is, tight or slack lines for margin fishing the method feeder
