What is this wistle thing you are talking about how do you use it?

Response to Portal Whistle List 2004-06-26 01:02:10


Damn n00b we have to tell you every thing dont we?
The whistle levels:
garbage:a broken whistle.
Normal: you start out with it.
Bronze: a leveled up whistle. flags more effectivley than normal.
silver: flags more effectivly than bronze and normal.
gold: a very succsesfull whistle.
diety: the ultimate whiste level.
What they do:
if you see a flash movie/game that is macsalious or hardcore porn you can blow the whistle on it.This will flag the movie and if the reoson you blew the whistle is a good one, you get a positive point. wade installed a new system so that when you flag it the bot will check it out because hese a genious.

I admire your handling. ;-) Now, I believe that the majority of "blammed movies" are submitted by what could be seen as "repeat offenders" - people who are inclined to submit many movies in a short timespan. People who, on the other hand, submit movies only irregularly are more likely to have spent much time on them. After that observation, which does not impinge significantly upon anything, I would suggest "three or more blams in two weeks leads to two weeks of ban" rule. Two blams is absolutely too little - people who get a single movie blammed will be VERY wary of even trying to IMPROVE the movie - for what if it's disliked the second time around? A movie that falls short by far the first time, and barely falls short the second time bans you for a month, which would be far too harsh. You could even consider either three blams in one week, or FOUR blams in two weeks (depending on statistics on blam-submittance patterns). Now, one thing you probably should do is avoid this seeming like a "punishment" type thing - perhaps "probation" would be a better word, and you should combine it with redirecting those authors to a dedicated page of FLASH TUTORIALS in order to make it seem like a nicer thing.

We will also be changing around the whistle options at some point. We are going to ask everyone to stop blowing the whistle on "free blam" entries in the near future. : So we'd appreciate it if everyone would hold back on flagging entries as "free blams" unless you see someone constantly resubmitting the same blammed content over and over.

Hmmm...i like the idea. Thus will make users try harder to get whistle points. cuz free blam is why so many users have such good whistle points. i admit, im one of them...

The other function that can give, or take away, whistle points is flagging reviews as being abusive. If you are logged in and reading reviews, you will see "0/0 people found this review helpful. Did you? [YES] | [NO] | [ABUSIVE]" below each review. If you find the review violates our review guidelines we encourage you to click the "abusive" link. If enough users click the "abusive" link the review will be flagged for our review. If we delete the review you will be rewarded with positive whistle points. If we clear the flags and leave the review those who flagged it will receive negative whistle points.

if enough users? how many user need to flag a rewiev for administrative's review?

Response to Portal Whistle List 2004-06-26 12:41:26


It doesnt matter how many ppl blow the whistle it depends on the ppl's whistle levels.

Some of Tom's favorite artist have "Free Blam" to though and what about all of these "removed" stuff too like "This Has been removed A and B etc.
