Here's the whole thing from my perspective:SarahtheBoring wrote:Nobody's got a gun to your head making you read, Phade; by all means, code if that's the best use of your time.
Awww geez, people are deleting useful information! Something has to be done so that information is not being lost. What is the quickest, easiest thing I can in the next 30-45 mins to prevent any further information loss while a better solution is found? Making entries that are already limited be append-only. Since I already have the "limit" detection function written, this will be a snap. This will allow people who haven't yet solidified their entry to make final edits while those who have generally don't change information very often if at all.
Ok, now that information can't get lost, I can take some time to consult admins/coders and think of better way to handle info loss. Since the vast majority of people write up their video description and then don't touch it for a long time if ever, only a very few people will be affected if they even notice at all.
What's this? Somebody noticed. Time to write up a quick explanation of what is going on while plans are being made.
Hmmm. Seems like the apparent lack of instantaneous communication has been deemed teh eval. Well, I guess I had better address every point that comes along rather than actually work on code so that people will calm down.
Yeikes! People are really making a mountain out of this temporary mole hill, screaming that the sky is falling and crying and peeing in their pants. I guess lots of communication is not the answer either. I guess I should just go back to coding and deal with debate later on.
First things first: link comments, since that seems to be the majority of vid profile updates. People should be happy now that that's in place. Nope, not even happy that comments are available. Oh well. Back to coding...
Phade.
