Faster News Updates

Postby TheMiede on Sat Feb 14, 2009 9:28 pm

I took a look at the submit news area and it has a bunch of news updates that have not been posted yet. I don't mean to whine or anything, I just thought that Blink brought on some new members to post news because of this very reason. :\

Christ people have lives and other things to do! Also if it's in the submit news section - it's avaliable to be viewed isn't it!? So if anyone has such a desperate disposition and craving for ALL the latest gaming and HL2 modding news they can look there.

I think we should make TheMiede a news poster then he can do it all himself. Good idea me.

Hey, I am fine with that. I understand that people have things to do, but you must also understand that mods rely on News posts to attract users. Mod's can't do that if their news posts aren't published. If a dev member takes the time to make a news post here, you should have the courtesy of publishing it.

Understandable. Just fulfilling this forum's purpose and providing feedback. I appreciate this community which is why I care, and have been a part of it for 4 years.

Actually. In the past month or more, the news updates has increased almost every 3 days or once a week. It was never that hectic before so they have increased a lot!

Goddamn it, I always forget about the Submit News thread. I'll go through it as soon as possible.

No, not at all. I have RSS feeds for all the new news, so I forget to check on Interlopers for stuff others have posted.

Mod teams could always mail the team here at Interlopers directly if they were that desperate...

Ah yeah, that'll do it. Thanks, like I said before, I don't mean to be a pain, just providing some feedback.

News just in: Not everything submitted will get posted on the main page, due to quality control.

I try to pick and choose things that will spark interest/conversation - this is a community forum after all, and imo having 10 new items every week that only get a couple of comments each isn't the way to go. However if I'm wrong about that I'm sure Blink will correct me :)

Quality over quantity, agreed. This isn't Moddb :-)
