The value of content

***quzar*** · June 28th, 2007, 12:19

To the content complaints: we have no news article authors, that is not the point of the site, it's simply a news reposting site. Staying on top of the news of others and collecting it in one location.

Even "DCEmu Exclusives" are simply the news as is from the source with two or three lines of mindless dribble. But, as is with the rest of life, if you want to fix it, any member of the forums has the power to do so. When there is new news, you can just as easily as anyone else write an article yourself, and if it was not yet reported, it will most likely be moved to news.

The current priority of course favors speed vs content though, if you can get both, kudos to you.

Precisely what Q said. We take no credit for the news we copy and paste either. If you want more details we recommend you view the site linked to in the news post.

While it would be awesome if we were able to write our own detailed posts on every individual news item, no one has time for that. You, however, can post detailed information in the forums. It is the members of DCemu that make the site so informative. We merely post the news. It is your duty to discuss it in detail.

We do actually have some talented people we chose specifically for their ability to write decent articles. Mark, YKB, and JKKdark cant be responsible for all the news, but most of their articles are most enjoyable.

Also, after investigation of the specific article in question, it was submitted to news AFTER there was already a news release about it. It would be confusing for all if the article changed after being posted, and there is no way the old news post will be dumped for the new, so what I see is someone feeling bad that the article they had stake in wasn't posted fast enough.

I think I said that?

It could've possibly been added as a post to the current post, but new people don't see that (they just want to create threads)

Especially if it was posted first by a respected DCEmu newsposter

I posted what I thought was news the otherday and Wraggster moved it to the PSP Hacking section, I didn't complain

From what I see, someone just wanted to complain about something that in all reality was nothing!

Yes, but I'm staff, and checked on the post times of the deleted post, the non deleted one, and who deleted the post. foo.

Well thats confusing to say the least. Still I'm looking more toward the obvious, er, social problems then the technical ones here at DCEmu. JUNK did help quite a bit, though.

At the one who causes the problems(I do believe we know who it is): You've gained a bad rep here. Don't leave, simply make a new account and for cryin out loud, dont post half the crap you do...

All I seem to notice for technical problems is how DCEmu sometimes loads half-way of the page then quits. Then it takes around 5 minutes to restart and load the entire page.

Wow, what type of connection are you on? It doesn't take that long for me, only a few seconds!
