Publishing Saves

    I have just notice the amount of saves published in 10 minutes is around the order of 100 - 200 because of this I think there should be changes because the FP logic has not change for a couple of months now and i predict an increase in the amount of save published per amount time

     

    I propose changes/additions

     

    A). To Redesign the FP logic

    B). To Create a mods pick of the day / week

    C.) To have a code that makes users use a specific name once per user

    D.) To increase the number of saves per page

    E.) To Have a selected number of persons that can access a page in which they can unpublish saves that are ..... well ..... unthought of

     

    Edit 1: (To add new ideas)

     

    F). To exchange the control for saving online with saving offline (A.K.A Save to computer)

    G). Like @cyberdragon said in http://tpt.io/.230431 to turn the publish option by default

     

    notes 1:

    The thing that keeps FP'ed saves on FP is user reputation and groups or clubs that support themselves (allthough their saves are well thought of)

     

    notes 2: (also an edit to add more notes)

    A) Precisely?
    B) That already can happen. Mods can "feature" saves onto the top left of the frontpage.
    C) ?
    D) Kinda irrelevant. Should've said "Larger frontpage"
    E) Mods already can unpublish.

    A: There is no front page logo, and what use would it do?
    B: Mods can do this, and why does it have to be all the time.
    C:Why?
    D:Why does it need to be larger?
    E:I don't understand this?
    F: Why does it all need to be changed for more saves, and why does it need to be changed because it has not for a while.

    This is true. There is a really low chance of getting FP, then throw in self-voting and saves that are already on FP. What do you get? No FP. Perhaps something where you must get-out of the noggin-5 votes to be elegiable for FP. And you can get FP for no more than 5 days. And a bigger FP would also be great. Let me summarize:

     

    • Must have an n-amount of votes to be elegiable. (~5)
    • There is a limited amount of time to be on FP. (~5 days)
    • Bigger FP. (~2 pages)

    You can only be on for 76 days, and that is rare. If the FP is 2 pages, it wouldn't be the fp, it would be the FPS, whis is Frame(s) Per Second. Also, it is a amount, probable more than 5 in a certain time.

    Also...because of the sheer volume of junk that gets published, no one goes on recent much anymore. But that is where new saves get seen and voted on, if only trolls and pranksters go there to destroy votes, then it's pointless. Some saves climb up front page, get knocked way off but come back. Other saves get knocked off by what moderators slap there (their own stuff -_-) only to have a crappy one knock another good one off because it's now at the bottom. Than the crap climbs because people like Minecraft blockheads and "Ugly saves are awsome!" pranks. (sigh) SOLUTION: Turn off default publish...please. -_-

    76 days? Well that automatically makes my opinion invalid.`

    And you really think that destroying the acronym "FP" would be a great dismay for TPT? You know my grandmother had to eat stone soup during the holocaust, i'm pretty sure we can handle the end of the "FP" acronym. And I am happy that there is a limit, that just supports how beneficial my idea is. I am tired of these idiots taking up spots that can be replaced by actual resonably good saves.

    Well I can't seem to get any of my good saves (elecronics) on fp so I'll keep making ones designed to get there to compensate.
