diamondgeezer 23 Posted April 8 (edited) moderations has slowed off a lot lately so i just thought id post in the forums that i am up to 76 pages that need moderating ( 10,000 or so items) so if you could spare a little time and check some out that would be great Edited April 8 by diamondgeezer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Suhrvivor 19 Posted April 8 Yeah, it's getting out of control, the mod queue was usually less than 300 things to review daily. now it's over 1500. some of my latest contributions sit for days with 2 out of 3 approvals, usually takes less than a day to get accepted (or rejected). Also, I've seen a bunch of trolls and bad info lately, we got to pay attention to that. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chris Kant 20 Posted April 8 I am feeling the same, but lately there are so many strange things in the moderations que (some really B*S* stuff) a week ago that I don't want to go through everything. from my point of view the way of moderating and the Games DB should need an overwork from design, and workflow. and being honest, I don't want to work through millions of pages for systems I am really not interest in... plus strange Systems and for me not really clear how to moderat at the moment. Is this now an duplicate or should this really being in another system? plus my submit que without feedback (I have to take a longer way to check if it is accepted or denied and why is it denied) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
diamondgeezer 23 Posted April 8 yes i agree with both of you the moderation system needs a massive overhaul there should be some sort of a reward system I.E if you have a good approval ratio you should need less people to approve your submissions Total Submitted Changes 40536 Total Pending Changes 8803 Total Approved Changes 39020 Total Rejected Changes 171 I would say that i have proved my worth but yet i still have to have the same amount of approvals as someone who is just starting out submitting artwork Also i agree with you that there is a lot of poor quality and pointless artwork being submitted lately which is clogging up the waiting list and is putting a lot of people off moderating Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Enverex 14 Posted April 9 Yeah, sorry about that. 1000 or so changes in the last few days are mine. Going back through my library and adding games (plus all their info/artwork) to the DB if they don't already exist. Still got a bunch more to do. Shall I hold off or just keep going and let it queue?

ZeroX9876 8 Posted April 9 I just started moderating like a week ago. I actually never saw that I could until now! I'll try to put a bit more effort into it to help you guys out with the queue line. Totally agree on some comments here, sometimes I see the exact same image that was already there and the difference is like per example 480x180 vs 480x179 pixel. Quality is exactly the same, but the only difference is 1 or 2 pixels. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
