Zanstuff

I like some of the ideas flung around, only thing that I don't agree with is the whole idea of assigning wads on a person for him to review. I agree more with the idea of a title of being a reliable reviewer that does not make biased reviews.

You can post a review in the wad's forum topic anytime as well. -IF they bothered making one-

Yeah but

1) Only the author and people who lurk that thread would read it (and it would be gone and forgotten after it gets buried in a few pages more of posts). The reviews we want are for EVERYONE to read, and would be stickied so that people can find them easily. Nobody's gonna trawl every page of every project thread in the Projects section just to find a review.

2) All official "ZanStuff" reviews need to be archived in one place, not scattered around in various project threads.

3)

-IF they bothered making one-

Exactly. Not all potentially-reviewable mods have their own project threads here. Another reason to give ZanStuff its own subforum.

Yo I totally forgot about this.

[Cruduxy]

Heh I mean't people who don't get approved can still voice stuff in the wad's topic.. the IF was actually pointing out how a lot of modders don't care about making a thread -even though some get played regularly-

I'd Also review stuff

So is this going to happen or not

I second this.

[Hypnotoad]

So is this going to happen or not

At this point I am still unsure of the best way to organize this.

[Lollipop]

I think this way:
Archive: A sub-forum where the threads are named like this:
Zanstuff review (#?) - [authur] - [reviewed mod/project/resource/whatever]

Trusted reviewer system:
Make it a usergroup, like you are in the suns team member group, trusted reviewers could be in another group in a similar way.

Who can review:
Anyone should be able to review, but it have to be read by a moderator of the subforum like in the tutorial sub forum, to prevent bad stuff happening.

Rules?
Generally not crossing the line of the forum rules.
Not too many grammar mistakes.
Non-biased, a biased review is just plain flak. Also, one should not review a mod from a person they are in conflict with, even if they do not bias the review, as it is impossible to make the review honest.
The review must be explaining it's statements, not just ROFLTHISSUXLETSGOODAMEX JAJAJA

Setting this up right now, as per Hypnotoad's request.

Been there, done that. No one liked my reviews as I was too forgiving most of the time. So... eh. Good luck though.

why not make some reviews and let us see for ourselves? *wink wink*
