authorized game creators?

Post Information Posted: 2008-01-27 11:43:56 #

David, I see you have made a change in the site that lists some members (me among them) as "Authorized Game Creators". As of now, only AGCs have their games on the front page. I'm assuming that the intent is now that other games are available only in the "Games" section, not the first page.

That will answer many recent concerns, at least in the near term. It will probably also cause consternation among non AGCs, so again I make an assumption that this is a short term fix, with a more elegant solution in the near future? I've been batting an idea around with some of my friends and may soon have some suggestions that may point to something of that nature. How practical my suggestions will be, well, I don't know. Only you can judge that.

But many kudos and thanks for working hard on this site to make it work for everyone. That's a difficult tightrope because you can never please everyone.

BTW, it might be better now if the default view of the "Games" page is most recent, or if there is a separate general games page (for non AGCs).

Wow! You do notice the smallest changes to the site pretty fast, don't you :)

Well, I'm working on it. An AGC is something everyone and anyone will be able to become by making games that get played and apprecitated so there's really nothing controversial there I think. Also, the first page will change form a little bit to give place to better and more sorting than now so all in all I hope it'll be a change for the better.

See separate thread called "Making some changes" at the top of this forum, which will be updated with a more thorough explanation once I'm done with the update.

Suggestions are always welcome continuously of course.

Ok, thanks for the reply.

I was concerned about the AGC thing. On the one hand, I appreciate the front page being less cluttered. On the other, I wouldn't want to be too "elitist", nor unfair to kids, newbies and such. That a newbie can become an AGC through a fair process alleviates that concern quite a bit.

As far as you always welcoming suggestions, I know that to be true. It's a better site because of it.

Again, great work here.

The changes are definitively a step in the right direction! Go David, go!
