Is there no moderation mechanism ?
If I submit news about fishing will it go live ?  :-o


Now that would be plain silly. :crazy:

The fact is that the moderators do not have a great deal of Amiga news to sort and publish if news submissions are low.

is it easier to criticise than to hunt down and submit quality news for submission yourself?

As for Microsoft bashing, its an age old tradition for all IT related sites to poke fun at them. ;-)

I suggest that the title of this thread be changed to:

"Not enough Amiga related news being submitted by members."

Then it would be more suited to the announcements category.

To be fair Red has the second highest amount of accepted news submissions.

The title for the highest amount of news submissions is held by a certain individual whos identity I shall not divulge lest his lack of a life become too apparent. Don't bother checking because you won't find that info in the top members list anymore due to his relatively low post count in other categories. :-P

I suggest that the qualifying criteria for top members should be revised with a higher point system for news posters as an incentive.
