I have a question to pose toward Dantom..
Could you think about setting it up where the DBZ and Fan Games have their own Unpublished chanel from which to list under??? Just a bit over crowded in there as it is now.

There's no way to filter out all the DBZ games. If they wanted a place on the hub, they can create their own channel and submit it to Fangames.DBZ.
|
But it might be possible to add a variable to world like world.DBZ = 1 so that it appears under a seperate DBZ.Unpublished Hub. The advantage is that Unpublished is not so crowded, and that DBZ-fans don't have to search through game descriptions to find DBZ-related games.
But yes, I agree... more games need to be completed and submitted to the Hubs. splatty | |
No, I don't think Dantom has any intention of coding DBZ-specific variables into BYOND. :)
If you really want to get away from it all, I suggest you build a website for your game and have people go there, instead of to the hub. | |
It's a shame the advanced search doesn't allow us to exclude games with a certain string from the search.

Its not really that even, I just see DBZ games at BYOND have just a majority and activity here at BYOND that this could warrent more detail handling matters for them.

Right, and I believe this was the original purpose of BYOND.FanGames.DragonballZ - to give DBZ games a place to collect without cluttering up the rest of the live hub. The idea is that people will submit their own channels there, and then they will have control over the submissions to their channels.
The problem with the system as it stands is that there are only two channels currently accepted to FanGames.DBZ. Until I made a recent fix, dozens of people were submitting individual games, clogging up the submission queue (now it only accepts channels). There are 4 channels awaiting review right now but I believe the reviewers are busy this week. Hopefully they'll get done soon, though. I think the biggest problem is a lack of understanding in the DBZ segment of our community about what FanGames.DBZ is for. We'll try to make that clearer (any suggestions are welcome!). Once a few more channels get accepted in there, DBZ game makers will have more choices for publishing their games within that hierarchy. | |
