You know, I explained that already, right? :|

Before you get to publish levels freely, your three first levels must be approved by Level Moderators. If your level hasn't appeared, it is because it has been disapproved. You know, if your level doesn't show up, it either means Mods didn't have time or it has been disapproved. In both cases, THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO NEED TO POST IT THREE MORE TIMES.

To check why levels have been disapproved, check your e-mails. But just now that spamming enemies (aka having a high number of enemies or, you know, Bullet Bills), causes the level to lag and is NOT welcome. Oh, and I mentioned it before too, but this is an English community. You seem to have a good level of English. Please, use English from now on (in your levels).

StarEDIT: Oh, and last but not least, you don't need to post like 3 different things and send me TWO PMs to say that you can't post your level, especially if I have explained it already. Post once (this topic was way enough), and wait. We are not always here and might be busy.

But whenever a moderator approves my third level; level disappears!

Why ?

Well. If a moderator would actually approve it, it wouldn't disappear. A level 'disappears' when it's getting disapproved due any bigger issues. Enemy spam, Massive swearing, missing level code and a bunch of others. The purpose of said approval system allows us to keep a specific quality standard for levels in the portal without needing to clean up spam and other stuff.

Also as SK said. It'd be somewhat helpful to use english signs and such in your levels. It's an english speaking site and people do actually want to understand what you're writing on them.

I'm waiting two days for my level to be approved, which is not extraordinary much, but the fact that I see level mods being online from time to time makes me confused, though. I'm considerate of that level mods have other interests, but it's basically their job to take care about new levels. If they all don't have time to look after new levels, maybe we need more than just four lemons. It would be nice to reactivate an ex-lemon like e.g. NanTheDark, or guys like Karyete and Yurimaster etc. might also be suited to do it.

And if you wanna know: There's absolutely no reason to disapprove my level. I've also seen levels with huge enemy spam that still got approved.

Oh, and before I forget: Mods and Glomods are also able to approve levels, aren't they?

And before I forget again: It also annoys me since I wanna start to rate levels.

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.

Lol, shroom. The reason we've got so few at the time is because our previous lemons (like BY) is because they haven't had the time to keep their jobs, which is sad as they were very good at their job.

But yeah, these are the things you need to look out for:

Enemy Spam: basically having massive quantities of enemies. All that information that the game has to load causes it to slow down and become unresponsive. Naturally people dislike this.

Cut-off: try to have everything looking natural and realistic-ish. Water doesn't float, ground does not suddenly stop, etc.

Plain features: an ugly or boring appearance will cause people to lose interest. Keep your level looking nice!
Just some tips for you there. :3

Also I don't think Mods can approve levels, GloMods can though.

Hm... Could you send me your level via PM, Supershroom? I'll point out it's flaws, and will try to help you fixing it.

Omfg today I've seen two lemods online at the same time! It starts to get dolorous. All they have to do is to load my level once, look around for a few minutes and then approve it! What is so hard about that?

Thank you, FF.

This site does not revolve around you, nor does it revolve around any of us. Please be patient and wait for a level moderator to report on the actual status of your level without making assumptions.
