Bump. This thread is a year and a half old. For these sort of threads, just post a new one or PM the staff if you have any questions.

I agree with Chau, except that I thought you can bump stickied topics. :3

Ahaha, oops, didn't notice the sticky. XD Was doing this on an iPad and kinda just skimming through things. My bad. It still should be said to please only bump any sort of topic with meaningful or detailed posts.

Two things:
If you report a post by the "!" button, is the staff automatically able to see the post or does it still need to be linked?
Second: If you see a peccadillo which shouldn't be avenged with a warning, e.g. a double post in the level portal, is it better to tell its author to remove it via PM or should you still report it immediately?

Thank you, FF.

Rating standards: show
1 star: (0 - 5.75 in LDC) These levels need a lot of work. They're totally un-elaborated, and/or inherently flawed due to things like cutoff or enemy spam, or they're untested and there are too many bugs gameplay-wise, in short: Many many things went wrong in such a level.

2 stars: (6 - 9.75) These levels are not terrible, but poor. They're too short, lack scenery or they have errors and/or bugs but it's still barely enjoyable. Again, spend more effort and try to do better. (if it's your first level that I rate two stars, it's not bad. There's a long way you can still go)

3 stars: (10 - 12.75) These levels are about mediocre. They may be still a little bit short, the gameplay is fine but not very original and graphics are also solid, but not breath-taking. Try to keep improving!

4 stars: (13 - 15) These levels are nice, but not the best. Effort has been put into them, there can some professionality be seen in gameplay and graphics, they're a nice experience to play, but there are still things you can do to make it even better. Try to go the extra mile!

5 stars: (15.25 - 20) These are really great levels, those which, as said, I would give more than 15 in an LDC. These suffice many high requirements, and it already goes into subtleties if you want to make them better. These levels are successful all around. Bravo.

These are just general principles I try to follow when rating. Sometimes I don't leave a further comment when rating, most times I do, if you have questions about it, feel free to ask further.

1: They can see it automatically.
2: You should still report it, the mods will edit the post.

Guide about spam wrote:If you send someone 3/4 pms in a row about something, leave it there and wait for their reply. I say 3, because it's easy to forget something, and you can't edit a sent PM.

For those who don't know, sent PM's can be edited as long as they're in your outbox / the addressee hasn't read it yet.

Yes, unread PMs CAN be edited as long as it is sitting in your "Outbox". Once it is in "Sent", your chance is gone.

Also, there is an exception in the double post rules for art threads and level threads. You are allowed to multi-post there because it is reasonable to assume that you would add/change things, and nobody else might have posted.

And, as far as I know, yes, the report button makes an entry in a log including a pointer to the offending post. Buff, Amp, Confirm?
