Post reporting

I won't become one any time soon because of my checkered past.

 

I have a kind of "interesting" past too.

 

I'm speechless...

I have some suggestions, i know this forums and this community and i know what means to administrate big numbers of people (I am an admin on a big Facebook page)

1. Welcome message to every new member: every new member will receive a message with all the forums rules and all the things he needs to know, if that message is not read the users could not post anything or download any mod
2. Get some community administrators to help devs: A group of notable members selected by the devs who work on keeping things tidy, they could not ban anyone directly but they could see the reports as a way to help the devs
3. Increasing the value of the bans: More ban = Less problems in many cases
4. Remove the star rating on mods: I think we need only two evaluations: Recommended and Not Recommended, more space to comments and less to stupid stars
5. Three tipes of post interactions only: Like, Dislike and Useful should be enough

 

I agree to everything except 2. As stated countless times, we will not get community moderators.

Also, I think for the ratings, there should only be: Like, Dislike, Useful, and Agree. Agree is the most useful rating of them all.

 

Two would be better: Like and Dislike.

Keep it as simple as possible.

 

I just stumbled across this review. I'm speechless..

Can you make it so you have to download the mod before giving a rating? It would help flush out those useless one-star reviews.

 

More ban = More abuse

ur a funny dude

 

What?

This doesn't make sense.

 

The 'victims' will think they're being abused by the moderation team more often, as there will be more 'victims' of proper moderation.

 

Mh, ok.

Yet this forum can't be tolerating just about everything and never take action because of that.

It's about time some users grow up and realize the perfectly legitimate reasons behind actions taken against them.

 

A well-explained and thought out review without 5 stars? I'm speechless. Pure evil. People like him are worse than ivan lochcov. They need to be banished from this forum forever! They are the reason why the community is so toxic! PERMABAN HIM NOW!

 

More often than not reviewers are perfectly right, but can't express themselves in a civilized manner.

"All things sux" is not really a well argumented review in my book, even if the object of the review is actually that bad.

Heck, it's a review: less witty, snarky remarks and more constructive criticism please.

 

And the same should go for 5 stars ratings. Just rating a mod 5 stars and posting a ""funny"" meme for not reasons other than enjoying the actual "modder" shouldn't be accepted either. This mod is actually bad, I'm not going to give it 5 starts just to please the "modder's" ego.
If constructive criticism is needed for low stars ratings, the same should go for high stars ratings.

Me too I'm speechless, speechless that this mod has an average rating above the majority.

 

Sure, I agree.

In all honesty, star ratings could well be ditched. They don't mean a thing, and users leaving reviews are rarely qualified enough to discern.

As someone suggested, "Recommended" or "Not recommended" are more than enough IMO.
