Thank you.
This is a forum, I added my opinions, as people do on forums. Do note, I didn't title the thread: 'Contribution & Moderation Law'. 2 sections are feedback and ideas for the DB Devs. A decent number of people aren't adhering to the guidelines (edit: by "guidelines", I mean "prompts" and what they imply) which is why I decided to write this.
Greetings, my name is Vloshko I'm a stickler for proper quality data and annoyed by procedures not being followed. I didn't tell anyone they must do 'X' or they are unfit to do 'Y', I said "tips" and "please attempt to adhere". If anything I was writing a bit further into what's already implied in the prompts on both ends in https://gamesdb.launchbox-app.com. Once again this is a forum and unless words are coming from a moderator or are explicitly stated as an order or something similar, everything should be taken as opinion.
Devs can always improve the way something works, especially since the DB is in Alpha. They may read the opinions of users and maybe they will decide to make a change, or not.
By the way could you please link the guidelines here so everyone may see them?
I personally can't find them anywhere on https://gamesdb.launchbox-app.com. Next I searched google. Finally, I double checked by searching the forms. The latter two instances I found the link is dead in the Pinned Post that leads leads to https://docs.google.com/document/d/1wB80CH3zecXccfQ4Et8NxYa-G1bQuo7eo1YHvkYQ728/edit.
Which brings me to another Suggestion I forgot to add, have these guidelines directly accessible from https://gamesdb.launchbox-app.com/moderation, it's bad design to make the user navigate elsewhere to find them.
Sorry for the tact, I'm Israeli, we're blunt and straight to the point, plus I'm a nerd. Thank you for your feedback.
Thank you for your time and I'm sorry for offending you neil9000; I will do my best to word things better from this underlined point on out,

P.S. Someone has been adding a lot of clear logos, box art, and doing some consolidation, you're doing a fantastic job. Color accuracy 10/10 I think it was for Commodore 64 IIRC.
edit: clarity, punctuation, sentence structure, bold, underline
