Icon section doesn't have director's choice either, and believe me, 4000 icons is can be a pain in the ass, especially when you have to make a selection... Why don't you select the art breaking the rules and post the links in the art section? It would greatly help the mods delete the crap.

I don't want to make you angry Werewulf but this is a pure example of when people want bad resources to be deleted but they always think that their own resources are worth to be spared and then get angry against the mods. If you want a purging, then be aware that your resources may be deleted.
As long as I'm given a reason I will accept if my resources are removed.

I went through the first 18 pages of the art area and this what I found, the rules are very vague so it's really up to interpretation.

Art: http://www.wc3sear.ch/?p=Art&ID=1355
Rule: Other game content not related to wc3 (Age of Mythology units fan art example)

Agreed with Daminon. I don't think that your really hopping to be Art Section Moderator acting that way. And Elfy told me that he has an headache so please have some consideration. He is deleting what he cans already.

Why you must be so angry Tiki? Look, they are doing what you said, wc3 purging, eh? They are purging icons, spells, and maybe many other resources that we don't know, since mods don't send a post which mentions about resources that are already deleted (like VG said). Maybe some section cannot be purged since Darky doesn't come back yet. But look, they agree with your suggestion.

About you become a moderator, maybe they don't want it regarding to your past attitude, but hey, that's not a big deal. You still can help this purging. Why you are really want to become a mod? While there are already a mod who will do it and all you need is just sit down and watch it.

Look, Tiki you have good point about wc3 purging and i think you are a great artist. They just don't accept your offering to become a moderator. So, don't foul your own good point with such a cildish attitude. Only a kid who blame his parents bcoz they don't buy him a toy.

Ok, there are no use for flamming, i think none of all mods get flammed with that, since i just can smile seeing your post. There is no use for it. Take it easy now, dude. You can become a moderator on another site, but hey, that's not a big deal.

eh...Tiki was once a mod. the older mods removed him from moderator status because he....was a bad moderator. not really a point in banning him right now.

Cause im mean, I use bad language and dont give a fuck who im talking to? That may be one reason.

And because I purged the icon section before and noobs just get upset cause there crappy icon isnt on the site for someone to download, noone ever would. And they whine to other mods saying im a meanie.

I'd agree that the site needs to be purged of some of the bad maps, and models, skins, and spells w/out images. I'd keep the models b/c a lot of them end up being quite useful, as do some skins, and icons even. No offense, but there are a lot of really bad maps on the site, and those should be purged.

Your past few posts reflect how you've always been posting. Completely disrespectful. Thats why we refer to you as, as you say, a "meanie" (so it wasnt your actions, it was your attitude). Doing icon purging was you only doing your job. We respect that. But if your skin is so thin that you cant take a bunch of people complaining, then thats your problem. Obviously you coudln't handle it, so you quit. Thats fine by me.

@ Rui: i didnt realize you were looking for PM confirmations. I just dealt with the maps and was done with it.

Well the Maps Section contains tons of maps, and there are often so many unfinished maps submited that it's hard to find out the one i PMed you about. That's why i'm never sure.

Wait wait wait... Why should spells without screenshot be deleted? Screenshots make the spells more downloadable. I saw some spell packs which were trully incredible, yet they lack a screenie. I won't delete valuable resources just because they lack a screenshot.

As for the icon section, it should soon be fine, though there are still a lot of bad icons Juicy has to deal with.

*aham*

before posting here claming for a clean-up in the icons and map section, visit the first 2 pages of this topic, says everything that matters.

all the rest are just replies to Tiki's stress

A screenshot usually implies quality. First off, if you can't even take the time to take a quick screen, what does that imply about your work ethic on the spell? Second off, some spells are quite different than you might think from their names and/or descriptions. Third off, most people aren't going to take the time to dl the spell, and then play it just to find out what it really does/looks like. It would aide in getting people to put screens in with their spells which would be a lot more convenient.

Aya malandro! i agree with you about the SS things but, by what concerns to me, you are the first person to doa real complaining about this.

you cannot hope the mods will delete any resource cause of the lack of SS but, if they decided to think this is a valid complain, i got a proposal:

Make one of the Spell Submission Rules about the MUST BE screenshot question

this would solve it, but i dont think the lack of SS is a big problem tough ¬¬

Agreed again. What's so hard on making a screenshot? Alt + Print Screen SysRq. Good that the distribution of spells helps a bit. But this rule should really be used.

Don't even need the alt, lol. Anyways, that's kinda where I was going with my whole spiel. Deleting them would force the creators to repost them with screenshots, which would essentially solve the problem. I wasn't sure whether they were willing to change the site format in terms of what it does/doesn't accept so I was gonna wait for one of them to say it, lol, but it really doesn't matter. Aye, that would help greatly though.

Over my dead body... Do you have any idea how many quality spells are without screenshot? I am already making a raid on the site, deleting junks. I've got past the last three pages (coming from the end to the beginning). Screenshots are just to attract more people. There are certain spells which don't look that good in screenshot. SO, when I won't be a spells moderator anymore, you can implement this rule as much as you want. Want more reasons? I'll give them to ya.

No, it's really a petty matter, but I would say it's one you might want to phase in. I wasn't thinking clearly when I said purge all the spells w/out screenshots, just try to phase it in so that the new ones will. It's really not hard to do and greatly helps people browsing the spell section. Even if your spell doesn't lend itself well to screenshots, there must be SOMETHING you can use as a pic.

hey tiki, i remember you saying that wc3 modding was a complete waste of time. dont you have better things to do?

Who said I was modding?

But I do visit this site a few times a month to see how its doing, and its doing bad so I just suggest things.

I have my own shirt company to work, webdesign shit to do, modeling to learn, school to finish and stuff.

I may model wc3 but thats easy to learn modeling at a low level.
