Getting tired of this.

Well, this is just a minor idea, and I realize that without Darky, it's about as good as an amish computer, but here it is anyway:

Why not force users to give a reason for their rating? I don't mean you add your reason in your comment, I mean that there would be a text field near the rating choices, and your rating will not be accecpted without a reason. Then, if someone puts a 1 with a reason of "SUXORZ" or a 5 with a rating of "AWESOME!!1", the ratings can be reported to mods for deletion. Like it was said in the original post, someone gave a rating of 1 with no reason. And the way I see that is that it's great that you don't like a certian resource, but you aren't helping anyone get anywhere. It may be eaiser to just rate 1/5 without putting a reason, but the author can't make it better without knowing why you rated it like you did.

well said Elf warden, i think i was trying to say that but you put it forward more cohesively

and well said olofmoleman. i joined up a few months ago too to submit my model. but then i went on holidays and havnt been working on new ones in the mean time

of all the comments posted on my model i like armels, elf wardens and lor finarfins the best. they commeted fairly and justified their criticisms which led to me reworking the model for the better. unfortunately when i resubmitted the model the link broke and i was forced to delete and re-send it, thus losing my best comments. i also get the impression that it was rated fairly. over all i'm happy with my models successes. she even made the top 7 at one point

maybe the problems lie in too high of an expectation in what is produced here, that its all gonna be solid gold 100% of the time and that the model/skin/map was made soley for their enjoyal, the creators enjoyment playing no role in it whatsoever

bah...

as elf warden said the problem makers will either grow up and participate or move along. it'll be up to elder members to set a good example and show erroneous behavior to be wrong. problem makers will make themselves stand out far more and leave themselves vulnerable to banning



-I'm going to the special Hell-

I fully agree!

The site is just getting worse!
And as you said there is no sign of Darky, not even on MSNM.. ..He maybe doesn't have time becouse he is playing WoW so much.. ..But he could at least spend some hour(s) a week on fixxing the sites!

It's impossible to contact Darky, he was logged on to MSN yesterday but he ignored me.

He finally logged on AIM a few days ago, but he too ignored me, and all I wanted was to chat with him like I always do, mostly about non-wc3 stuff.

Me thinks hes having personal problems but eh, im not sure, just a guess. He'll come back to us eventually.

And Is it just me or are any of you realizing...

Darky isn't here, which means NO implication of new systems! We have to wait it out, and work together! I swear there are like 30 ideas for systems posted here...

Oh yes...

There happy now?

This is not just a site for Warcraft III, it is a site of a community! A site where we talk and help each other! Damm I love this site but it is going DOWNHIIIIIIIIILLL...............

Thats why there are good members, to help us, if you see that a moderator missed something or you think he can do something, just PM him, do not be afraid to report. You can only help us by reporting

This is the first time I completelly read this thread after the day I made it.

Just some stuff:

- Vexorian being super moderator/admin == no!

Mostly because that stuff needs time, time that I don't have, and I don't really have any interest of having power, really, Moderating wc3c and wc3s's spell section is enough for my head that is going to explode soon.

- Vexorian remaking the rules: Why? the rules are already there, Opining in a negative way about a resource doesn't really go against the rules, and it shouldn't. It just harms the site and my patience, but there is nothing that can be done about that unless the comments are spam, in that case they break the rules.

I wasn't speaking about my resources besides the downrate, I am talking about stuff I've seen in the models and skins sections.

The problem is not that my resource got a 1, it is mostly that the whole Rating System is broken and it harms the site, There is no sense on having so much resources with 5/5 , and some other with 2 where they shouldn't have a low value.

My recomendation about the rating resource is to kill it and replace it with a 'Request adition to Director's choice' option or Having a People's choice system besides of the director's choice.

Or at least increasing the rating range to 100 instead of 5, or disallow the voting of certain people (you need at least 20 resources to vote, for example)

I'd preffer the people's choice award thing though.

The problem about Darky's dissappearance is that I have not seen any signs of him last 3 weeks, not in irc, not in posts, It is weird since he mantains the site, and even if he was on vacations he would have done some appearance at least.

Apology &amp; Feedback

I must admit I am guilty of spamming I apologise to all those ppl who wasted their time reading my post.

I've been reading this thread and I agree wholeheartedly. Without some sort of system to encourage feedback instead of 1s and 5s reviews of skins, maps, icons ect are going to have to abolished entirely.

Yeah join the hubb if you have hit puberty.

Ummm....no.

Juice_FIt's impossible to contact Darky, he was logged on to MSN yesterday but he ignored me.

I have added darky's messenger to my contact 2 days ago & I just wish I could sign in to MSN w/ this unupgraded MSN messenger. I would love to chat w/ him w/ lots of off topics & things that concern this site.

Yes I agree that Vexorian had been doing his jobs well as a MOD these past days as far as I can remember since the 13th of last month. Also harper = off topic MOD, why not & I have a lot of free time & I would surely love it. I will dig deeper into the ancient archives of off topics to seal the undeads. And I think I will be active atleast for the next 25 days or forever.

We don't need a new off-topic mod, we just need more comment mods.[/quote]
