The memberlist is now correct!

Postby Raz » July 21st, 2015, 1:24 pm

After deleting users on and off for the past year, we finally deleted, hopefully, all of the spambots or unused accounts. What we did was delete any users who have not posted at all and registered before July 1st, 2014 (about a year after Suyo implemented his spambot system.)
There were a handful of users who were deleted because posts don't count in the LDP, so to fix this we are making posts count in the LDP. In addition to that, to keep user count accurate, we'll be doing this yearly, in March, in time for spring cleaning.

Karyete: I don't have anything to say to you, I've been deliberately trying to not offend you for years, actually, but apparently everything I say to you is wrong. You come across as so aggressive that you successfully intimidated me into not wanting to talk to you
Karyete: Seriously, what is your problem? And not only that, you fail to even acknowledge you might be in some wrong here.
Karyete: Oooh it's you? Hello. Feel free to drop this right now. You're going to make yourself look like an idiot.
Karyete: We don't want to hear your opinion at this stage.
Karyete: You're not getting any apology, especially after now.
Karyete: You can stay up on your high horse, continue to twist the truth and act like an absolute child all you want. I refuse to give respect to a man who right now is picking up a dropped argument because he simply cannot fathom the idea that he might be in the wrong.
Karyete: How pathetic

Truth be told, I don't see a reason why we should break with a 4 year old tradition of posts not counting in the LDP. Especially if I'm thinking about submitting 50+ levels with poor effort, or all those n00bish comments which can still be found here and there. I've already seen users who made a bunch of comments with little to no content only minutes after they registered, and mostly they refrained quickly from that because these posts didn't count.

Alternatively, just go to a zero-post-user's profile and check out if he has the "a good start" medal or not. Just my two cents.

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.

It doesn't have to permanently count. It was just an easier way to sort through legitimate members with posts.

The administrator control panel doesn't have very many parameters of sorting; all there is is join date, last active, and email.

I agree. When i logged up here, the first thing I did, was making a topic and getting the first medal, that satisfied me that I have become its nember and people have got knew about my existance here. The members who signed up randomly just hangin out in forums site should be deleted. Mostly they dont even remember the pass and even they forget their username. I was choosing "deathbringer908" but it said it is always there, so i choosed 906.
