ok - i didn't post this in suggestions complaints cuz ...apparently, no1 would read it so here i will rant away
about what i think is extremely irritating in this forum
i hope all of u would read this , and go ahead flame me or whatever, but i had to get the message out.
1. scans - purposes of scans - FOR SCANS - as in, wallable pictures. uploading really bad qual pics just takes up space in the archive is , well.. spam. some of u ppl blow up smaller resolution pics to fit the size restriction but, does that improve the overall scan resolution? no. all that results in is something really blurry and not possible to use.
2. wallpapers - ok..this is what really got to me. when people rate/favorite walls, STOP RATING THEM LIKE THEY ARE SCANS. A wallpaper should be judged based on the background, and the skills required to make them. Don't judge walls because "oooooh the chix0r is m4d hawt!! +FAV!" b/c thats what should belong in the scans rating area. in addition, when commenting, dont just type somethign simple like " me like" or w/e . that doens't help with the wallpaper evaluation at all. commenting is a way that gives the waller the chance to improve and to do that, criticisms etc and what EXACTLY u like/dislike should be included in the commentation. Personally, what i found really irritating is that people generally rate wallpapers here due to the scan girl's "cuteness/ cup size etc." "....a d cup = a +fav eh?" have u guys ever realized that a wallpaper featuring a guy is almost always NEVER in the highlighted submissions.
Rating system: ok, i guess most of the spammage in this forum is due to this rating system. i know many of u upload below-par wallpapers/scans in order to gain levels. For personal benefit, these images actually go and spam up the boards. as u people all well know, on the main page there are 9 recent submissions that gets pushed down as more walls are uploaded. a wallpaper that required a week's worth of effort gets the same spot as a wallpaper that someone whipped up in 2 hrs. Furthermore, the slowness of the site and the huge amount of user input prevents people from easily browsing through other older-but recent works. is this fair? no. is ther anything you can do about it? yes - STOP UPLOADING SHIT ( sorry language) THAT ONLY REQUIRED MINIMALISTIC AMOUNTS OF EFFORT. IMO a wallpaper slapped together with a few stripes, another image and a scan isn't really considered a wall. since most people here are slack with the commenting, we are promoting these shoddy wallpapers by saying stuff like "really nice" when it really isn't.
guess thats enough ranting for today. i had a lot of other stuff to say, which i ranted for a cuple of hours on #minitokyo irc channel but yea, kinda forgot them since i was busy. hopefully people will take in my words and apply them to their browsing leisure.
ps - dont mind my grammar i didn't bother to reread
