Regarding Public Uploads

We're building a FAQ for the public upload system, so we want to get as many questions as possible from you. Please post any of your questions here, so that they may be added to the FAQ. Thanks.

Anyone who submitted content before our maintenance period:

We still have content stored in our database that is not viewable by the public - only our staff has access to it - so, if you submitted content to SpikedHumor before our new public upload reviews, please be patient for it to show up. If you're not patient, go ahead and resubmit it for the public to review.


To everyone:

I want to touch on grammar and article formatting...

When uploading content to us, please save us the time of editing. Capitalize the words in your titles, write THOROUGH descriptions, categorize content properly, and give it the proper age rating(s).

Also, until our duplicate-checker is fixed, do an extensive search on SpikedHumor before posting material, as it could easily be already on the site!

PLEASE only submit quality content with accurate details, so that everything at SpikedHumor is consistent.


We're refining the new public upload system to be even better, so sit tight.
Thanks for all the continued support from our members.

My recommendations for the review system are........

1 - Names in review should be anonymous to prevent preconcieved bias on voting.People get into flame wars in threads etc and develop dislike of certain users,this would almost certainly result in a low vote.Likewise people who like other users may similarly give a high vote on name alone.A clip/image etc should be judged entirely on it's own merit,NOT who submitted it.

2 - Only logged in members should be allowed to vote.Normal browsers of the site should not have have voting rights.

3 - If it's possible find a way of auto verifying a file has been fully downloaded to a user before allowing a vote on it.Whilst not completely foolproof since they could just vote as soon as it's downloaded but not watched, it would stop people who just click and vote without even watching.

Actually I'm aware I keep my descriptions slim,but the reason is mainly I don't wanna spoil the clip.I'll try though.

That doesn't address all 5 points I made though.
Come on, you can do it, buddy :)

I have noticed that in the "review public uploads" section, there are many that have less number of views than votes. This suggests to me that people are not viewing the upload but are voting on it.
I think you can figure out why.

I'm not sure what can be done about certain people that flood the upload section with pure shit, namely sonnyz. I think the point here is quality NOT quantity. Maybe a weekly limit 7, in other words 1 a day. That may keep some of the pure garbage out of the uploads.

This is sortof off the topic but is it possible to have an "internal" messaging system that will allow people to message and chat to each other?

Arthur (2 sheds) Jackson most of your uploads are interesting and unique and your comments on others are usually intelligent and informative. Keep up the good work! Maybe you should become one of the moderators here. You've got my vote. ;-)

Thx guaii,but I think if they made me a moderator I would end up giving in to the temptation to ban every pro Bush/hardcore christian on the site.I'm like Fox 'news' I wanna be 'fair and impartial'.

Don't panic Sci I'll work on all 5.

Guaii:

I like the limit content per week idea.

If people have a voting power of 3, the number of votes will be counted as 3...so that may be where you're getting confused.

About the messaging system, we have forums that everyone should use:

Another thing, I've been editing everyone's titles and descriptions.

Art:

Put spaces after periods.

Two spaces after the periods actually, one space after the commas.

cool, keep getting better and better. I like this new idea because it clean up the forum, the site have been slow lately since all of this new upload, the speed of the server is not as high as before, the limit upload is pretty neat too, and I think ya'll should ban every single person that said "1st post" for at least 1 days.

The only problem with this thread is that he said to post your questions here, not your suggestions.

Is there a filesize limit to the content being uploaded?

Scienott (Admin) : LVL 37: VP 4.5: said:

Thinking of making 100mb the filesize limit, namely for videos obviously.

I'd suggest not accepting AVI files as they don't seem to stream for some reason.
