Just curious as to when this popped up on the DB. What's the purpose of such a thing?

Validation is to help the LDB mods realize which locations need to be reviewed and which they've already reviewed.

Moderator Rating is a rating on the overall content, coolness, and photography of the location which is applied based on a set of guidelines. The user ratings are horrible right now -- people are giving locations with almost no content an 8/10.

Ah gotcha. Just struck me as a strange feature, but now it makes sense.

So...

We get a moderator's opinion of the 'coolness' of our locations ?

Or is there a more scientific methodology behind it ? Care to share it ?

Curious.

I would assume it's more for relevance in the UE DB and not "coolness".

Chris, it's basically to try to keep people from turning the LDB into their own personal photo album. We don't want people posting pictures like "Me at the Prom!" and "Thanksgiving Dinner with Dad" or "Me & my friends watching bukkake".

It has more to do with relevance to UE than 'coolness'.

Don't forget the assholes that are ejaculating on these so-called "real sluts," SnArF... *glares at you for your very sexist remark*

I don't know. Are mods gradually going thru all the locations and rating them, so eventually, at some given point in time, all locations will be Validated/Mod-Rated? Or will it be just the ones that they happen upon, etc?

They are working through them all, one at a time. Everything will eventually be processed duely. Once the major backlog of old stuff is taken care of, routine maintenance of new stuff should be much quicker.

Its about time we receive a neutral rating for the locations we make. Right now, people rate your locations on how much they like or dislike you, it bullshit. Thanks for doing this.

P.S. Heres an Idea, we should have a button that lets us automatically PM a moderator if we beleive that the locations was not rated well, or we want them to re-rate it, because I was thinking, what if we came back later and added more information.

There is already a "Notify an Admin" button.

No need--- when you modify the location it needs to be re-validated, and rating the location is one of the things on the "validation" checklist. They'll get around to it eventually.

People always do that, that is why we ditched ratings in the UEA. We have another idea which should work much better but that is staying under our hat.

If you ever come to Calgary then email [email protected] and you'll be made welcome, taken to locations and given free accommodation. We'll help save you the $$$ you spend on the flight over here :)
