Home Page Commenting

Post by Twilight_Warrior »

Do all posts need to be moderated? Or is it just the first few posts from the user?
If it's all of the posts, that seems pretty silly. I mean, I see the reasoning, but you can always just moderate the home page posts like you do on here, and if anything happens, delete the posts and warn/ban the user.

From what I've seen, yes, all comments need to be approved.

I agree that they should just be moderated, but I'd guess that it's hardcoded in and thus guru would not be able to change it. Who knows though. There could be an option there and guru just hasn't got around to changing it. It is only a week or two old, you know. Give it some time and it should work great.

EDIT:
I just approved your comment that I assume you're referencing. I'm not sure about the rest of the, er, "team", but I'm not quite sure whether we should approve comments or not. I suppose I just will until told otherwise.

Well I had already posted once in Grev's review, suggesting how he could clarify his rating system, then my comment on MrCrayon's post had to be approved, too.

Like I said, I understand the spam thing, and if it's just one or a few posts before it cuts out, it's fine with me. I just wanted to clarify how it worked.

The settings of the new main page are still in transition , as we Bring downloads back add chat I will be setting comments and moderation to various test settings during the month. Depending on spam and what addons I put on gt it could be three post per person then no more approval needed but it could stay like now just watch and see I would say
