Posted: Thu Dec 22, 2011 9:17 am Post subject: 3 Submissions a Day Policy |
|
|
Have we ever thought about taking off this limit of 3 pictures a day? I never felt it truly "encouraged" other users to submit their best work. They still submit their best or worst art, and wait until the next day to submit the same quality.
Perhaps we should just get rid of the system, unless there is a better reason to keep it. _________________ [size=10]“Far better is it to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checked by failure...than to rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much, because they live in a gray twilight that knows not victory nor defeat.” ~Theodore Roosevelt [/size] |

I think it has something to do with flood control. oO
Even so, if it were removed I'd still submit three a day, cause I dont think my comp could withstand me overloading it with pics. xD _________________ Our life is made by the death of others...

Maybe not completely take away the limit, but maybe increase it. Sometimes I find myself wanting to put something I'm really proud of on, but I can't because I've already put three things on that I was also very proud of. Most of the time those are things I find and forgot about. I just think three is too little sometimes especially when some people are trying to get their comics on... _________________ [color=#E0FFFF]I am a sky rose: one of those rare beauties in all Xauna.[/color]

Flood control is correct. The whole point of the policy was proven beyond a reasonable doubt on HF. With a limit of twenty some odd images a day we found people literally submitting crap by the truckload. Literally submitting ten, fifteen and even into the twenties a day of little more than pornographic MS pain scribbles. It was that very practice that not only led to this policies reinstatement but HF's over the top quality guidelines policies. Well over a thousand images had to be deleted because of abuse of the relaxed submission limit.
Also, A question for you. As an AP staff, Do you really want to process that many more images?
Trust me on this one, I have seen and processed a 500+ queue, you don't want that kind of work load. _________________ [b]RPG[/b]-[i]n[/i].

The limit is set by a constant in the code's configuration script (on a per site basis), so only the webmaster has authority to change it. As FAC is not nearly as fast-moving as HFC perhaps upping FAC's limit to five is an option we can consider. _________________ Strata here: [url=http://www.nanowrimo.org/eng/user/242293]Nanowrimo[/url] - [url=www.fanart-central.net/user-Stratadrake.php]FAC[/url] - [url=http://stratadrake.deviantart.com]dA[/url] - [url=www.furaffinity.net/user/Stratadrake/]FA[/url]

Is the limit always 3 a day even with the auto-approval thing? |

Since it's primarily a flood control thing, I leave it to those who do AP work to decide -- they are the ones that have to deal with the consequences. If you want it raised I'll raise it. _________________ You will obey or molten silver will be poured into your ears. |

Speaking as both a submitting FAC user and an AP staff member, I will support raising the limit to 5 pictures a day. I will take responsibility with the higher approving rate as well. _________________ [size=10]“Far better is it to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checked by failure...than to rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much, because they live in a gray twilight that knows not victory nor defeat.” ~Theodore Roosevelt [/size] |
