i want to point out that you got to be able to find what you look for on a forum like CBC.
It is important to have certain rules on sharing, or it would just be a download forum with no structure. We even made tutorials on how to make shares. So this is not new information.
We have spent a lot of time to organize CBC so it sends a signal of quality of shares, not quantity
- meaning each post has preview pictures - we offered a way to easily provide those (the imgur solution) ,
- information om who made what, for which body, which lipstick color, which texture format, is the share rigged and so on.
- we have our own filehost, so its easy to zip files and share them.
We ask members to maintain own posts so that the information given is accurate.
We keep on restructuring CBC as time goes by, in order to make it more smooth, but one, well a couple of - things will always be the same :
- Security: For both your own sake and for the people you ripped anything from. When you provide UUIDs make sure that they are checked not to contain any information which is not
exposing anybody for any "unhealthy" inspection. (both avatar uuid and texture uuid)
- Search-ability: When given all the information above, it would be easy to check if shares have been offered before. We dont want a whole lot of same shares.
Your point of mentioning we will get more shares if we don't have all these expectations of sharing, might be true. But we are a young forum, and have learned, still learning from our memberships on other forums. We want CBC to stand out as something unique, and not a copy of what already exists. Yes, some things will be the same, given the nature of a copybot forum, true. But again, we want quality more, and quantity will come, when joining members understand what CBC stands for.
Quality isnt a waste of time, hopefully
if you have problems finding out information, feel free to ask how to do things. We might not have covered anything in our tutorials - yet! The more questions asked, the more aware we get on what is missing. Asking questions not asked before or answered in any thread, is a way of contributing too.
