a confused reader
[71] :
12. Nov 2003 12:21  
We are so kind that we dont delete the unsuitable news completely and rather keep them for users who are interested in all sort of tidbits, gossips and news not useful for sceners, or the Commodore64 8-bit machine users. Active and productive C64 scene is preffered, passive scene (various retro projects (focused on past), web page projects, hobby projects, PC remixes, PC remakes etc. etc.) are ususally (with few valuable exceptions) moved to beta news.
CreaMD
[72] :
12. Nov 2003 12:27  
@ 70: read ABOUT and HELP. If you are still confused, you should ask more clear and serious questions. Also, maybe include your real (nick)name and maybe an email address...?

WEC, if you actually realized your posting wasnt news, WHY did you post it to our NEWS? Why not to our reactions here, or to any of the Forums we link?
[75] :
12. Nov 2003 15:25  
Maybe you should pick some more fitting name than "beta news". I suppose the word "beta" is used in the same way as in "beta version [of some software]", which means approximately "finished, but might need some more testing before release".

Some "trashed" news arent crap news, they just dont fit into the main news. Some of the betanews are interesting. The name of this feauture shouldnt suggest that we dont respect the posters.

CreaMD: If I say "this tune is crap", does that mean I dont respect the people who have made it? No. If people post news that are off topic, does that mean they respect the site and the people who view it? Probably not. If theyd bothered to check, theyd noticed that their off topic posts might be moved into a section called "beta news", "crap", "retro news" or whatever. I fail to see what it has to do with respecting people.

Puterman: some people sometimes contact us by e-mail and explain their views on things which sometimes differ on our view on things. Some even more-or-less persuade us that their activites support the active C64 scene etc. etc. Not always we trash news of people who dont care to read the policies (guidelines for posting). Some of them do find the reasons why they think the news is valuable. I consider respect towards all posters important. I think, if there was some decent way hot to make betanews a little bit more "visible" that would maybe prevent some complaints of disappointed news posters. (like that idea of "turbo64" retro news we were once talking about at IRC ;-)
CreaMD
[85] :
13. Nov 2003 16:09  
Heres a great and respectful name for the section then: "News from Turbo64".
puterman
[86] :
13. Nov 2003 16:32  
As the C=64 is the center of our universe and the trashed news are more or less distant from the center, how about something like "News from the orbit", "Surrounding news", "Additional news" or even simple and neutral "Other news"? OtoH, Ive never had a single problem with Beta. For me it means something rather secondary but not swept under the carpet.
