Animation Source news
Rules overhaul!

Written by steet :



 

It was long overdue, but a few things are going to change on Animation Source soon.

The
As you may or may not know, the french side of the site has been running quite smoothly over the past years, but the same can't be said for the english side.
Which is why, the french moderators suggested to help and improve the english side, and they've recently dedicated a lot of time into it!

And here's their first task : "changing" the site rules! Actually changing is a big word, it's more : giving precise details and filling the blanks, the areas which were a blur for everyone.
You'll find the new rules directly in each section (fanarts, fan images etc...)
Also a few tweaks to the general rules, which you'll find here : https://www.animationsource.org/board/post14621.html

This is only a first step. I'd like to ask to let them do their job, and even if you don't agree with something, be aware that this is for the good of the site and for its success in the long term.

Stay tuned!

Good job, Steet! And thank you moderators for the time you put in for everything! I really appreciate it, and I hope most people do! Let's make the source a better place! :D

Can I make a suggestion for future reference?

I understand posting edited screenshots for your Image Gallery avatar, but GOOD GRIEF must you post one EVERY ten images? What if people don't want to post edited screenshots every ten images just to keep their IG open for things say trades? Can we maybe pull that off, or fix it?

Troll -> Thank you =) And don't worry if you have questions, that's normal! Don't be afraid to ask, we will try to reply as fast as we can, and to find a solution when there's a problem. I'm sorry I couldn't help a lot with the questions you've sent me by PM, I hope Hecate could help you more than I did.

And, as an after-thought, I WILL say "thank you" to the French folks for taking the time. Wonderful job. A tedious and extensive reworking of the existing rules? I don't see it that way. That they spent the effort at all? Lovely. And very much appreciated.

Well then Nakou you just aren't seeing it. I said steet finally responded after I (and others) sent him e-mails. I also said he doesn't reply to private messages on here. You DO know the difference between a private message on Animation Source and an e-mail I presume, yes?

Second, I never said I did not appreciate what the French moderators are doing here, nor that I thought to insult any of you. So you can just climb down off of that impossibly high horse now and drop the crudeness, which you yourself admitted to.

Third, and it is so very freaking typical of those who responded since I did, my points have once again not only been entirely missed, but misrepresented by a plethora of chest-thumping balderdash which, instead of discussing the issue further, was calculated merely to cheapen any observation made by someone they don't happen to like. Which is, in fact, childish, petty and unresponsive. Of COURSE the mods did their work. But I have reviewed the revised rules in detail, and frankly, I don't see any sweeping or extensive changes which would infer a tedious effort put forth. I see some wording changes. Short ones. And I am not the only one who has said so. So the flowery praise meant as an underhanded blow-off, again, utterly unresponsive and irrelevant.

Anyone who doesn't think that this could have been handled by contributions from people who were from the U.K., Canada, the U.S., Mexico, Italy, Russia, Australia, Japan or wherever else, and that it could ONLY have been successfully managed by the French staff to clean up "that problem area over there" is full of it.

Well said Bats. Very well said.
Nakou, I already said it to Hecate privately, but I think you should see it too.
I really appreciate your help on English side. I know you didn't have to do it, as you can stay and be happy in your French side, but you still take your time to talk to Steet, make all the topics, images and tutorials for new rules.
Any questions and doubts about the new rules (I had a lot of them and it must be pretty annoying. Sorry xD) can be asked and explained politely, without making drama or automaticaly accusing rules of being unfair. People need to see that you are not our enemies. You are here to help and you are always willing to do so.
So instead of complaining about unsuccesful attemtps to contact Steet, we should be thankful that he listened to you and did something for us at last. You deserve a big praise for all you do to this site.

Thank you for your 3 comments, that's reassuring. And sorry if you felt blamed, it was just a reply to JC's comment which was irritating. I don't want to stop helping your side, just to reply to something I find quite unfair from someone who'll never be happy as long as he won't be made a mod...

Anyway, Hecate is right - we can't please everyone... But if a majority is happy, that's all that counts! Thanks for your replies, guys!
