Serious delete requesting

Serious delete requesting

We SERIOUSLY need a delete request system for maps, and possibly art now, because there are a bunch of people on this site who don't give for the foundations of this site, and have spammed tons of horrendously low-quality maps. For example, Primussucks, created some happy face with terrain squares and submitted it with 26 other pieces of trash, and thought is was funny, then ripped a ton of ton claming he made it. Then, Topen, started ripped tides of blood terrain and submitted like 6 3.6 mb versions. Considering this, even though maps may take more effort and time than rushed skins, we should try to enforce the rules tighter on resource-related thing.

Dear lord I've noticed it too. They all still say beta and hardly anything is really good about them. I mean the least the people could do is update their maps or at least tell us about their progress. And the majority of the maps I've seen is just to impress their terraning skills (or so they think or maybe I think).

Well I geusse this matter should be taken in consideration but how could we prevent a poblem like this occuring.

there is a way but it's anoying, every time a map is being posted it needs to get an approval by one of the site admins.
that is a start but admins would have to do an awful lot of more work than they are currently already are doing.

An other suggestion is: A special button where maps can be reported as violated, ripp-ofs maps or maps that are not made with care, and if the site admins check these maps that are given there, they can easily remove them and.

Hope this is to any use of profit

Okey.

This may sound bit strange but okey. Why not gie some pretty good members some mad powers

Like give people who are here alot the ability to delete junk except need darky to make this happen. To put more detail into it. Make an user group of members who dont have the same abilities, llike locking,deleting posts, as a moderator and so on. But can delete crap. They can delete maps and art.

Make easiar for admins or mods
Theres to many maps that are the same pretty much and alot of maps that are useless. Terrain Maps are nice an all but that sorta belongs at warcraft III Campaign art section which is mostly terain maps I believe.

How about a system that automatically moves all resources with 2.5 or less rating to a "trash heap" (a separate category that does not show up normally). This way all people would contribute to the deletion of bad stuff. All trash resources that would gain more than 2.5 rating would be moved back to "normal stuff".

Actually this should be very easy to implement. Just add to the SQL query an extra term "Rating > 2.5" for normal maps and "Rating =< 2.5" for "trash heap". Unrated resources would stay in the normal stuff category. What do you say?

Also, the number of votes needed to get a rating could be lowered to 3, to ease trash deletion.

Still too much downvoting is possible. Just like submoderators to move stuff to a trash heap for mods to clean out would be good.

DELETE REQUEST FOR ART? I THINK ITS FINE, ELFWARFARE IS FAIRLY ACTIVE, SO NO WORRIES. MAPS? WELL PUT MORE MODERATORS!!!!!! BUT ON OTHER HAND, SINCE A LOT OF MAPS GET SUBMITTED, IT WOULD BE GOOD TO HAVE SUCH A SYSTEM YEAH. BUT BE SURE THERE WONT BE A DECREASE OF MEMBER ACTIVITY IN THAT SECTION SINCE ITS A VERY IMPORTANT CHUNK OF WC3SEARCH.

THERE IS NO NEEDS TO GET MORE DELETION IN ART SECTION, SINCE ITS EXACTLY THE PLACE WHERE WE HAVE A BIG LACK OF SUBMISSION. NOT ENOUGH PERSONS FEELS SAFE OR CONFIDENT ENOUGH TO SUBMIT THEIR DRAWINGS. INCREASE THE TOLERENCE IN THAT SECTION, AND DELETE ONLY WHAT IS REALLY UNSUITABLE ( FLAMING TOWARDS ANOTHER MEMBER ( I MEAN REAL FLAMING, NOT JUST " HE TENDS TO POST A LOT" , WTF THAT'S NOT FLAMING, THAT'S ONLY POINTING OUT A FACT) , SCREENSHOT FROM YOUR TERRAINING, OR PICTURES THAT AREN'T MADE BY THE AUTHOR )

I HOPE YOU APPRECIATE MY OPINION.

Like how Elfwarfare got you like all three times, twice in the art section?

I would really want to be a map mod, because I'm fairly active, then I would do a sweep through the whole section, setting aside hatred for dota (duh, I would be banned for removing all maps I presonally hated). I would then look for ripped maps, especially those by Topen, Dave.L (primussucks), and AquaFzT.

But I disagree storm, about the screenshots. Some people are really talented with terraining, because I totally maxed out like 4000 doodads in 5 hours over 16 hours terraining a kickass jungle for DrainPipe. But then again, a lot of people use screenshots in art for contests, and most of that usually turns out great. But flaming, yes.


What really sucks is oz02 gets the best of all abilities, but probably cannot modify things, let alone appoint moderators.

Last note is, most people, including the horde of noobs who hate me, would think I would abuse my power as a mod, possibly like Tiki. The same with a handful of the people, and also the opposite. In fact, we have a lot of talented people who should deserve a spot in moderator, because they are, in fact, more active and will probably help in the process. It would be awesome if we had submods this way. We could like "delete" items, but they can only actually be removed by the higher admin/moderator

Eusira. In fact, we have a lot of talented people who should deserve a spot in moderator, because they are, in fact, more active and will probably help in the process.

YEAH THATS EXACTLY ME.

Probably except for the possible abuse of power. You see a fairly awesome skin, and then you say it's complete trash and tell the author to stop skinning. I don't see much responsibility in that. Probably the protection from flaming is what you want.

hmm

Sub mods would be good but Oz. But cant appoint mods?

Storm. You be a good mod at skinning except I have a feeling skinner population will drop.

OF COURSE NOT, I ONLY WANT A SILVER NAME AND ABILITY TO DELETE ONE OR TWO SKINS PER WEEK.

hmm

Confused. Why are you doing Caps Lock while you typed someones name lower case?

He quoted the entire portion of your post that's why. I see stormrider's possible good reason, but because of what he said to me to stop skinning over my air barge skin (heck, no one does those), and by the way he brutally hacks and slashes at them, there isn't much chance it will be good. Sansui and Konblade give constructive criticism, not some Desert Eagle bullet fired in a Ney York alley in the head

ok

I meant would he made a topic after the The caps topic srry for not saying it with much detail.
