Due to extreme work, I've been less than active

However, I've accepted a series of submissions

There are others, though, pending approval, and they will be, but I like to give other people's cars their 15 minutes of fame

Sunday, I'll be accepting other cars

Cheers
Well it's a sunday today. Not a single car has been approved.
Now,why did you take the responsibility to be a car admin if you know you will not be active?
Either do the job properly,or DON'T DO IT AT ALL,i say...

We need a NEW car admin who:
-Is regularly active
-Approves the car in max. 2 days
-Looks at the minumum specs of cars,according to that he submits them
-Sends an E-mail to the person who incorrectly packaged a car or did not reach the minimum specs

Please,there is nothing to debate. We must have another car admin.

This explains why Allan1's cars are in RVZT! The actual admin isn't looking at the minimum requirements & standards seen in the "Car Submitting @ R V Z T" topic

What happened to ManMountain?

Seeing as Sunday isn't over yet... You seem to have jumped the gun a little bit. I do agree, another car admin would be nice. But that is not something I choose to do. It needs to be Arto's decision.

I enter rvzt, to accept cars, and as usual, 1 day delay = Nero ranting

First of all

1)As Back-up car admin, I don't really see the e-mail of the guy who sent the track, which means most of the time, I can't send the e-mail, only if it is in the readme

2) I do follow MM's rules, mr. know it all, Do you have any idea how many submissions we receive EACH DAY??? Besides, as I already said, I did not approve ANY cars by allan1, it was zach, who approves cars when we dissapear

3)I've been doing this job for YEARS ;) YEARS! Probably more time than you have re-volt...

4) I am NOT going to give any thoughts to a ridiculous teenage boy, who knows nothing about life!

I have a fiancé, a house, a job, soon one kiddo of mine, time isn't as vast as it once was!

As I once said to you, life will be your teacher, I can only imagine how are you in Real Life, and probably feel sorry for you

But hey, I had fun this weekend, so who cares? :P

Here's one of the photos:



Cheers Re-volters :lol:

If you would gather all the information and logic,you would've not just said what you've said...
He said that message 29th Oct 09
Sunday was 1 Nov 09
So...not just one day,four infact.

And...
-Approves the car in max. 2 days
Please do not fiddle around something ridiciulously pointless,just get ANOTHER admin!!!

i have too much freetime as it is, and i have an idea as what not to approve.
for example, my old repaints lol. they would never make it on now.

the solution is very simple:

1. buy a server and a domain
2. create a host site for car submissions
3. create web design, rules, forum abilities
4. advertise a bit, help people know about it and start accepting car submissions
5. go online every day and spend an hour with fixing bad zip files, answer silly questions, test tracks, help people,
6. after doing this for 5-6 years still be online every day, tell your kids to shut up, because you are fixing a rubbish zip file.
7. and after doing this for 8 years, still be online daily to have a chat with pretentious newbies appeared in the revolt scene only in that last few months

A couple of comments, in somewhat of order of importance:

1) Congratulations Ayl for the baby!

2) If sometimes the cars/tracks take a bit more time to be approved, that is not a major catastrophe in my opinion. People, even those approving cars/tracks, have lives.

3) There can be more car/track admins if there is need for it. I'd rather trust the current car/track admins opinion on this. Do they feel like extra help is needed? RVZT's car/track approving system doesn't scale too well to very many admins. If there's going to be many active approvers then some more coding will be quite necessary.

One more thing that I've been thinking about. Maybe the cars/tracks could be downloadable even before they have been approved? I mean, you couldn't comment or vote on them. But you could straight view the uploads and try them out before the admin has approved them. In that case, for the most impatient ones, they could try out the tracks/cars on their own responsibility before admin has had a chance to make final decision.

I'm still not sure if it's a good idea, but something I've been pondering about.

Many thanks mr. arto and Crone!

It's a big responsability, but I believe it a blessing! :lol:

I sincerely do not think it is necessary, MM is probably overworked, just as I am and if we both fail, there's always Zach! :lol:

When my kid is born, I'll be sure to step down Nero, so no rushing, it's due 7 months from now :lol:

Cheers!

I think we need a small bot, for checking :)

and the results will be showed as "Pending" until admin's confirmation?

Sounds like a reasonable and agreable solution.
Go for it. ;)

Correct, albeit a slight under statement. :rolleyes:
Christmas, what we call 'peak period', starts October and finishes about mid January and is keeping me very busy and away from my PC.

Please all do what you feel is needed to keep things moving, just try and maintain a standard of acceptable quality.

I'll see you when I see you. B)
