#1235519 Typesetting Guidlines/Tutorial

Posted by mhh on 05 May 2014 - 01:58 PM

I've pinned this thread. I'll most likely make a forum for this kind of content at some stage.

 

(When I TS, which doesn't happen that often, I usually make it a rule to try to match the original. If the font size does not change I don't change mine either if I can help it. And if it does I do change it as well. etc.)

#1211284 Revised Comment Section Rules

Posted by mhh on 18 April 2014 - 07:04 PM

Almost from the beginning the comment section has been used very differently than we as the staff envisioned it. Meaning this revision is long overdue.

 

In pursuit of our goal to provide as pleasant an experience to all our users as possible we tried to find a compromise between accommodating the suggestions by the community, giving the users as much freedom as possible and being able to effectively moderate the section.

 

You can find where we arrived at here: http://vatoto.com/forums/topic/18007-comments-section-guidelines/

We will observe how well the rules are accepted and will make changes if necessary.

 

If you have any suggestions regarding the comment section rules, please post here: http://vatoto.com/forums/topic/17970-draft-for-comments-section-guidelines-post-your-feedback/

 

We look forward to any (constructive) input you may have.

Grumpy made some changes to the automated forum creation. So I'm guessing something is off there.

 

I've created forums for both of them.




#1200722 Q&A about COMIC LOCKED

Posted by mhh on 12 April 2014 - 11:27 AM

We have US based servers. And Batoto complies when it gets DMCA requests. Which means we will take down some things but it also means that Batoto has a certain extend of protection from the law because we comply. You can read a little more about the DMCA act here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_Millennium_Copyright_Act

 

P.S.: Your topic titles with "Q&A" are misleading.

 

EDIT: Some people that are sure they can't be reached by US prosecution can technically just ignore all DMCA requests.




#1198106 Can someone limit the numbers of spoilers can be used in a post?

Posted by mhh on 10 April 2014 - 09:33 AM

I don't see why this needs to be done. Just ignore the post in question or follow suggestions given above.. This is totally different than the quote issue.




#1126899 [Updated] Potato Hell Rules

Rules have been in effect for some time now and we feel a some rewording is in order. For now that only concerns "rule 2".

#1081061 Not sure about a comic? - ask if appropriate here...

Posted by mhh on 26 January 2014 - 08:52 PM

While it's not about the actual content of a comic, this is the best place for you to post. 

 

From Batoto's point of view we cannot simply remove one page much less the credits page. Our choice is between hosting or not hosting it.

 

(There's also the option of contacting the scanlation group/person in question to change it and provide a different version. (Which in this group's case happened before.) )




#1038900 Unused forums

Posted by mhh on 05 January 2014 - 12:27 PM

I started to move some of the scanlator forums into a sub-forum called 'currently unused forums'. 

 

The intention is simply to increase the ease of use for the groups actually active in their Batoto forums. 

 

If you are part of a group and want to reactivate your forums, simply contact me on Batoto or via e-mail and I'll gladly move the forums back again.

Going to close this. No point in welcoming spambots.. -_-




#1020886 About Potato Hell and Spam...

Posted by mhh on 24 December 2013 - 10:45 AM

The initial purpose of Potato Hell was, to have a space for users to not worry about things like double postings or posts without meaningful content. Also to have a place for things that usually have no place in the General Forums or anywhere else on Batoto for that matter. We decided that, while basically the same rules as in the rest of the forums should apply, we were going to be very lax in enforcing them there. 
 
However, recently we are getting more and more reports about "Spam" in Potato Hell. Persecuting some things while ignoring others isn't a viable option. This makes any fair moderation in Potato Hell almost impossible. 
 
Just finding a definition of Spam is not very hard. (Wikipedia even has an article about forum spam specifically.) 
But something us mods have been struggling to come up with is: "What should count as Spam in Potato Hell? And what shouldn't?" 
 
As Pototo Hell is meant as a sanctuary for Batoto users to do... let's say silly things, we dedicated that you should have a say in this as well. 
 
So... feel free to tell us what you think should count as "Spam" in Potato Hell and therefore be persecuted and what you think should be tolerated.

Persian - requested by Morteza

--------------------------------

 

@lihmao If that issue is so important to you, please make a new topic about it instead of continuing to argue here. I know you are passionate about the subject, but in order to get a revaluation of it you need to bring us proof that it's not feasible not not have Brazilian-Portuguese. I spend like half an hour looking into it and I'm can't find anything that convinces me either way. 




#972887 How the My follow (view by comic) is sorted ?

Posted by mhh on 20 November 2013 - 12:31 PM

The "sort by comic" option is an older feature that Grumpy will eventually integrate into the new follow system and he'll hopefully be able to take care of all the bugs then. 

 

As for the theme errors: Everything should be working for you now that you are using 'Deluxe'.
