Hey everyone, I have started a group called Merit Recognition. It is for people to suggest merit worthy comments to moderators, so we can make sure to get more merits out there to the users who deserve them. So far we have been getting a lot of great suggestions, so I thought I would try to expand it by letting more people know about it. This really helps us out a lot, because we are not able to go through all of the game comments on the site. So if you happen to run by a great comment, you can now report it to the Merit Recognition profile page.
Here is some information and guidelines:
--------------------ABOUT---------------------- This is a place for users such as yourself to help recognize great comments! If you see a Merit-Worthy comment on a game, let us know by submitting it here (on the Merit Recognition profile)! Prior to any submissions, please read the following Rules and Guidelines: ----------RULES & GUIDELINES---------- 1. Do not nominate yourself. 2. Do not team up with a friend to nominate each other. This would be obvious, and then neither member would get the points. 3. Only nominate a comment if it has the following qualities: -A: Good grammar -B: Proper capitalization -C: It has to be reasonably long. A decent thorough review cannot be made in just 2 or 3 sentences. -D: It has to be appropriate and address the game specifically. -E: Cannot just be composed of number ratings for each category. There needs to be more to it than that. -----------SUBMISSION FORM------------ Game: Link: Page the comment is on: Name of the commenter:
So if you would like to check out the profile page for it, you can go here and take a look.
Don't suggest comments in this forum topic, if you have someone to suggest, please go to the profile. And make sure to take a look at the Rules before posting.
Sounds great. There should also be a leader board for most merits, don't you think? BTW, does the mod team need any more help? If so, let me know. I'd mostly be able to assist of review deletion/meriting and I'm extremely familiar with the back-end of the AG website.
If you would like to become a moderator, you can always contact Dan through the Contact link saying why. He is the one that makes those final decisions.
I just finished my latest review. JMTB02 is checking it out to see if he likes it. This gives me some free time to look for merit worthy stuff. I hope I find some.
Yeah I really love the Merit Recongnition idea Carlie, it's just really awesome and has helped me get a fair share of my merits. Oh, and I'll make sure to post any good comments that I happen to run by while playing a game.
Thanks guys! And firetail, in the future there will be a system that allows us to sort by up-votes, but for now it isn't in place yet. So in the future that will be more helpful, but for now when something is up-voted, it doesn't get sent directly to us.
