map moderation

[snipe108]

sry but i HATE MAP MODERATION it sucks! i have had my map go unoticed for over 3 months and im mad! because its still in moderation!!!!!!!!!!!

Deal with it, people are busy, and they overlooked things, also i think this belongs in the Admin Contact Forum if you really want your map approved...

 

[Magoo 111]

No offense intended, but yelling about it isn't going to help. Contact an admin about your concerns..and do it PO-LITE-LY!

They aren't gonna do shit about it if you yell at them.

How can your map have been in moderation for 3 months when you first joined in August?

The Hive Workshop's Resource Moderation log indicates:

VGsatomi Set status of maps.Super TD (id: 4919) to approved Aug 31, 2007 - 08:27

Gone unoticed by who, here...?

http://www.hiveworkshop.com/resources_new/maps/4919/

Looks approved to me.

And, if it wasn't approved, be polite, not angry. People make the effort to test your map out of their own time, not on your demands.

Also i wish to point out the fact that that this is everywhere I.E. my tool (nor really mine i just found it but still) here has not been approved evan in the very small tool section

I think this topic is alright where it is. The user has the right to complain (yet I will also have to note that you could have done it in a more polite way).

Do not worry, though, your map can still be downloaded, I believe.

It's important to remember that:

1. Once uploaded all maps are immediately available for public download and rating (registered users may comment on them).
   • No "approval" is required.
   
   
2. No where in the site rules does it indicate that:
   • Users MUST upload maps.
     • Plenty of other sites allow map uploads, not just our Hive.
     
     
   • Moderators MUST approve maps.
     • Rather to the contrary:
       
       Community > FAQ > Resource Section Rules > Map Rules
       

       Any map may be ignored by resource moderators at their discretion for any valid reason at any time.

Yes,the rules are ok.But the hive still lacks map moderation.Am i wrong??

I think its a big job moderating. Imagine going through a load of rubbish maps and having to see whether they're playable or not. So maybe you can see why it is perhaps slow.

Incidentally, can I ask where else you can upload maps? Not sure whether I should upload my newbie maps elsewhere hehe.

 

[ragingspeedhorn]

There are not many map databases left, but one of the others are epicwar.com where basicly any map is accepted.

And yes it is a big job moderating, searching through a ton of boring junk maps before you find something good, but we have to do them all so it goes a bit slow. More map reviewers could be needed.

 

[UchihaSasuke.gr]

Ok,no offense at map moderators because you all work hard.But we still lack map moderation.

I don't always have time to test maps as I have a great many other duties: I'll try to make more of an effort.

That aside, ALL submitted maps are available for public download and rating!

Registered users may comment upon them to help the author develop his or her creation. Therefore, final approval really only means that the map has been tested and (seems to) comply with Hive Workshop resource submission standards.
