Bumping Over Artilces on PAL News Section

[leporello]

I agree with Prop. seeing the same news story loads of times isn't in the spirit of what the news section is for imo. People are just throwing up any semi related story to whore from PALs link juice. Like what industry news is it meant to cover? There should be some stricter guidelines on what can and can't be posted in the news section. All of the above IMO of course.

I think this could have been solved by a simple PM. I don't see any big issue. I think the news section has functioned pretty well. Yes people have whored link juice, but I don't see a problem with that as long as it is a contributing member. Thumbs down on calls for more strict guidelines.

The shitty ones with third grade grammar end up getting thumbs down and the boot. IMO those are the only ones that need to get the boot. If you don't think your news is getting the attention it deserves, then start a forum thread. This is a forum after all.

Let's be honest here - it isn't really about duplicate news, because you can just skim over it.

What this is about it getting links, and getting other affiliates to link to your article.

People don't like to see their link disappear from the homepage so quickly.

Common sense will solve this problem though. If a topic is already covered, don't post it. Or vote the 2nd one down so it gets deleted.

Ok I regret making this post as I had no idea it would be met this way. I will also discontinue posting as well.
