Wincustomize.com needs moderation. Seriously.

Monday, August 4, 2003 by mattboy | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

Why, oh why did this awesome site drop the moderation filter for uploads? The "finest selection of wallpapers on the net" has become the "10% finest, 90% garbagest selection on the net". I used to come here for my walls because I knew I would find only the best of the best. Now it's just rehashed,cliched, junk. Bring back the moderation. For the sake of the site.

That's true Rich, but I don't know these days I think just up the thing and forget about it, you stick it up to have it accessible for the others if they get it good if not oh welllll... (you get nothing either way) cept that you were kind enough to put it up to share, but after that no guarantees it will be reached, ripped or highlighted right? hehe

but you're right maybe most here don't dig too deep I really don't know...

I'm with you Zodiaq, I have a new WB nearly complete but have backed off on it till i see whats going to happen.It would be frustrating to watch it plummet down the list because of "swirly #8 version 3",4,5,etc...

I really like the idea of having a separate "Newest Wallpapers" section. At least that will give relief to many of us. Course it will not relieve the problem for the really good wall creators.

Another good one is no more than 5 walls at a time for any one author although I don't think it's as good a solution.

I, like many of you, am holding back my new work until I see it will spend more than 10 minutes on the Newest Additions list.

why let wallpapers show up at all. let wallpaper people just go to the wall sections. ain't this a skin site?

T-man is on vacation here.  Technically it's supposed to be where anything < 5 won't show up. For now, I'll hack it so that no wallpapers show up in the newest additions.

JayG: We are a skin site but we don't want wallpaper artists to feel like second class citizens. A good wallpaper takes effort. So we do want outstanding walls to be shown.

You have a point Brad, good walls do take a lot of effort and deserve to be shown there. Perhaps upping the bar to nothing less than 7 would work for now too.

Thanks for working with us.

No problem. To m y chagrin, most people know how I *personaly* feel about the wallpaper section but as an admin, my job is to make sure that the rights of all artists are protected and each user, skinner, themer, artist, etc. receives the respect and dignity they've earned.
