CT Website · Article Comments Now Require Approval

Posted on Wednesday, January 14, 2009 @ 20:01 by floppy 

It has surely been a long time coming and now it is finally here.  Article comments on Clan Themes now require approval by an admin before points are awarded.  For the longest time we have seen too many comments that look like

nice
thaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaanks

Comments like the above surely do not hold any characteristics and we will not award points for such.  If your going to spam comments for points then they damn sure better be more thought out than "nice".

People, we want to give you all the points you desire, but using a system that offers the same opportunities for everyone.  We are not asking that your comments be perfectly formed sentences or paragraphs.  I only request is that you put a little more thought into it.

This is an example of a comment waiting approval.

  • You can still edit comments that are waiting
  • Only you and the admins can see them
  • Points will only be awarded once a comment is approved.
  • You may not delete comments until they are approved.
  • Each approved commenter will be given 75 user points.

 

Floppy,

Clan Themes Staff

It has a very friendly admin side. You can approve comments in the article or in masses via the admin panel.

Agreed, I earn my pts from making serious comments or topics. Some of the topic starters leave people no clue what they are talking about too. I know ya cant control that but plz people be descriptive when posting for help. It just takes a minute or so. Cheers Floppy on the approval. :)

Thanks bud, glad someone understands. It is just so annoying for people to try to cheat the system with no effort at all. If your gonna cheat atleast put forth just a little effort. That is really all I ask.

Admins can approve comments via the article or via the admin panel in masses (meaning all comments at once). Users can only view or edit comments awaiting approval.

Im glad you guys decided to change the comment system. You are right, too many ppl were posting just for the points with no real meaning to the posts at all. Hopefully this new system will ignite discussions instead. Good job guys.
