New policy:

There's going to be a set number of recommendations in this forum. We're going to collectively determine which ones deserve it, then to get a recommendation you have to show that a thread is better than one of the existing recommended threads.

Because we're getting a lot of good threads, and I don't have the time to search through everything and be constantly adding recommended threads. Eventually there would be too many recommendations, and it would barely mean anything.

I'm thinking:
- 4 Indie Recommendations Max
- 10 DC
- 12 Marvel

Current -
Indie: Spawn, Authority

DC: WW, Captain Atom, Flash, Kyle Rayner, Aquaman, Nightwing, Green Lantern, Ion/Parallax, Superman

Marvel: Alpha Flight (and satellite threads), Hercules, Hulk, Namor, Dr. Strange, Spider-Man, Thor, Adam Warlock, Thanos, X-Man, Magneto, Iron Fist

...

There's an open slot in DC. We don't need to fill it, but it's there. Indie also has 2 possible openings. As for Marvel, it's on a loose "challenge" system from here on out. If you want a thread on, you have to "beat" one of the others.

I won't be the final judge...too much work, and I do enough on these forums already. People can discuss things here and I'll make the necessary changes if it seems like there's some sort of consensus.

....

Couldn't this cause a danger of people spamming threads in order to keep them of the recommended list?

Call me dumb, but I'm just not following.

Is this particular thread for people to recommend respect threads that we think are good?

Recommend thread is a Respect thread with good feat (lot of scans) and infos in it.

If people are immature enough to spam threads, they'll do it anyway....this shouldn't be any more reason./

And if it happens, I'll edit/delete the spam and give them their warning(s) and ban if necessary. Simple enough.

Only ifyou think they're as good as or better than the current ones, and desreving of a recommendation. Then people will discuss long enough to determine the validity of the claim, and I'll make changes as necessary.

I want recommendations to mean something...not just have too many.

And if this doesn't work and is a failed experiment, I'll just close it and go back to the old system....so no harm done either way.

Alright I was just looking at what might go wrong.



Since I seem to be asking questions I have one more.

Will people that start the threads be able to request that you make an edit for them when they are unable? (ie to add an opening pic or organize some of the posts)?

Well, technically they've always been able to, but it has to be within reason. I'm not the respect forum lackey, cleaning up messes whenever someone wants to improve something.

And re-launches to streamline threads are great too, so long as all scans from the thread (from all pages) are included, and credit is given where it's needed. Because many threads would be exponentially better if the scans from say, 18 pages, were condensed into 1 page.

THOU DOST AGREE WITH THEE

After browsing through a bunch of threads, I've added a recommendation to Darkness (indie) and Hawkman/Hawkgirl (DC).

We now have 10 DC threads recommended. One has to be bumped for a new one to come on at this point.

Rorshach should be reccomended.

Jason Todds is rather Good.....and Dr Mid-Nite's...

firelord dammit

Originally posted by Beta Ray Howard

I need to redo that anyways, alot of the scans ballsed up big time.

My Spectre thread should be recommended,and if one thread should be bumped then it'll be the Capt Atom one.It has a dead link and a few extra scans that's it.

My thread has about 500 scans and well organized for easy browsing.The thread pretty much shows everything about Spectre not just feats.

Here's a few post from those who actually looked through it.

Originally posted by Skeets

The first page has a dead link. But I put five other links that covered the same material

Don't really care though. Soon as I finish in the tourney, and get some time Ima be making a massive thread for someone else

Darthgoober and I are co-op'ing on a pretty nice He-Man thread at the moment. Might not be recommendation-worthy, but it'll be nice nonetheless.

I'll take a look at Spectre skeets....

And no to Rorschach. I love Watchmen, and the thread is nicely done. But he just has too limited a showing for it to be worth a recommendation, especially when there's at least 1 or 2 others in the indie department that do as nice a job, or better.

Jason Todd dammit.

New X-men should be recommanded.

Meh. The New X-Men one is very well done, but it's up against a lot of great threads in Marvel. It also cheats because it's using a whole team ( ). The Authority made it on, but there's lots less indie threads, so it has less competition.

And no to Todd. Sorry MM.

180's still a lot, so I'll take a look.

But yeah, some people are hindered by lack of showings. Doesn't mean it's not a great thread, but keeps quite a few characters out of consideration.

Shadowcat?

Hmm... I have every single moon knight appearance (guest, ongoing and limited). Could make one for him.. Hmm..

....I've updated th Todd thread * looks at Digi with puppy dog eye's*

Well what DC respect thread do you think the Todd RT should bump out?

Anybody want to help me on my Celestials Respect/Capability Thread.

Umm, we have five links with loads of scans, Batdude's scans of him in the Armageddon, and various other scans.

Go through and count how many scans there are.

......how about no

You want it so bad, you do it yourself.

32 that aren't from the link....2 of those are just him getting shagged and 3 are him amped....the majority of it is from the links.....smelly caca face Atom...cost me the tourney dammit....he'll get his though...

219 scans

Yea I was bored.

The majority come from the links,and it's spammed up by inane chatter,I demand my rightful place dammit!!!

An ill-used Juggernaut and not playing to Bill's strengths cost you the tournament. Atom was the only one pulling his weight.



..

Also, with so many "Hey, what about this thread...?" requests, I'm not doing all this. Your peers have to view the threads and agree/disagree with you. Then I'll make the necessary changes. But I'm not going thread-to-thread determining everything.

*Shakes fist at Digi*

Fine....everyone vote Todd!!!

So about my spectre thread...13

...I still have veto power though, if I suspect "vote rigging"



...

Also, everyone check out the He-Man thread.

I think a good idea for a thread in here could be one for people making respect threads.

So they can get help making it (if they need it) and so someone doesn't spend ages uploading lots of scans and then somebody else cuts in and makes it.

Also, What do we think about an Invincible Respect Thread?

Anyone can use the discussion thread (the welcome thread) to try to find potential helpers. Or simply see who has knowledge of a character, then PM them.

Even this thread may get closed eventually...I don't really want to start littering the forum with non-respect stuff.

...

As for Invincible, anything that you think deserves one is fine. There's really no restrictions.

Is the Jason Todd one good enough now?

Dude, it's a good thread. But look at a few of the recommended threads and you'll see what I mean...

Besides, like I said, I'm not the final authority on this stuff. I have the final decision but it's basically what you guys think (collectively, not individually) should happen with it.

I'm so annoyed right now. I have done the Invincible Respect Thread 3 times, I preview it after I've done all the scans and it says about 9500, I go to post it and it says over 10,000. I am very pissed off.

Open slot in DC should go to the Great Evil Beast (just kidding, I know it won't happen).

My apologies, but life is hectic, and the Oscars are tonight. Maybe later this week.

And yes, the Surfer and Galactus threads are good. But the competition in Marvel is so fierce that it's hard to justify it. Maybe eventually I'll go up to, say, 15 recommendations for Marvel and they'll definitely have a shot.

It does, but there's lots at the same level.

I personally like seeing all the Raven stuff (she's my favorite on the Titans), and Cyborg stuff too (since the Cyborg respect thread is total trash).

Gladiator thread is a good thread, for me perhaps the one i enjoyed the most, even though liking Glads i didn't know much of his feats or comic apperances until the respect thread.

honestly most of the time it was hulk beat glads..........period and thats all i heard.

Yeah I always wanted to add on to that never got the chance to

and I'm not even halfway done with my Titans thread tons and tons of scans left

Someone should do a Respect Thread Hierarchy, like list the recommended ones, then in succession the next best and so forth. It would motivate everyone to increase their own respect threads, and make it competitive. And have something like list a few respect threads and have a poll or vote. Also, you could do a respect thread of the week or month type thing.

All good ideas. But again, it's essentially just me doing all this...and it becomes a hassle in a hurry when I have to re-consider the order every time a thread is updated.

I'll think about it though. There's a few ways we might be able to pull off something like that that don't involve tons of work.

Nah, it crossed my mind too....which is why I said I'd give it some thought.

...thinking about recommending the Titans thread, or collectively the Titans section that DL put together (I changed the directory around to be together). Raven, Cyborg, Starfire, and then the main thread.

So. Which one should be bumped, if we decide to add it?

who are you talking too???

Sure put em all in.

Well, technically, to keep the "10 only" rule for DC, we'd have to remove a recommendation from something else.

And I don't think all the Titans threads deserve one, but it's been 1 concerted effort from DL, and collectively it's pretty good.

...

But I may scrap the rule eventually. We're kinda on a trial basis with it in the first place. I'm not quite sure it'll work out in the long run.

No, Alpha Flight and Hawkman/Hawkgirl both have recommendations and I'm the only one who really has contributed.

Thanks Digi I'm also thinking of adding a Donna Troy/ Wondergirl respect thread in the near future do you'll have to add that in aswell to the titan's section.


and if I had to knock of a respect thread I'd have to pick the flash one most of their scans comes from a link not made by a poster from KMC.

and the scans posted by other kmc members aren't nearly as much as the ones I posted in the titans thread.

My hope is to eventually be able to do the same with The Authority. I have a decent amount on them now, but not enough to justify individual threads...but I'm working on getting to that level.

Probably. Or if it covers a character's entire run, if they haven't been in as many issues. But still, even then a lack of scannage will do you in. Organization counts too, but most newer threads don't have that problem.

well tis idea is kinda dumb really, its not going to work unless rpobably organised.

you should have a elite select who scour the respect threads on a periodic basis or when one asks if heis thread could be a recommeded then the select party will PM you if they think it should be a recommended thread.

or


people just post want thread should be a respect thread, or monthly digi should post a respect thread for us to check and during that month peole decide if the selected thread should be a recommended, though a recommeded thread does not garantee its place as recommended it could be replaced by a better respect thread.

Originally posted by HigH ScholaR

Tell me what you really think...



...

I don't think this system is dumb, but it's not beyond improvement. Everyone started to want a recommendation, and the limit on them was designed to make a recommendation worth something. Because people have requested at some point that probably 50% of the respect threads we have be recommended.

So yeah, gimme some time to deal with other sh*t. Your proposal is something I've been batting around for a bit, and we might try it eventually.

Ya know, maybe the old system (people asking occasionally for recommendations and me checking it out when I could) isn't so bad. I usually have the time.

When I made this thread, it was kind of a non-canon period in my life (2-3 weeks ago was non-canon material....yes it was. ). Anyway, I hate eliminating worthy threads (like Flash) so I'll continue to consider the "appoint someone to oversee recommendations" idea, but this limited-number idea is definitely getting the axe.

Take my IG thread for instance. I have compiled every feat the IG has ever had..... As well as shown every being to have ever held it, (from Thanos to Darkseid).

Just because the IG hasn't been seen in as many comics as someone like Namor or Flash, doesn't make it a lesser thread.










And no that wasn't some pathetic attempt to hype my IG thread.

It can't become a habit. Only when it's pertinent to the respect thread. I won't have the respect forum becoming a cover for posting legions of issues on a character. But if it applies to "respect", you're good.

But if it applies to "respect", you're good. I'm sort of going for a respect thread/chronology thing for a particular character - which would give insight into powers and character. There are particular past issues which basically focus on the character and a solo title which was quite abundant in feats and character insight - so that's why I was asking.

Seems fine. Like I said, just use your judgement. If it's justified for info and respect purposes, I have no problem with it. Once it becomes gratuitous, and simply for the sake of comic-sharing, then it's a problem

Every character has good showings and bad showings.

But I do think I shall make an over how bad that Namor issue is when Apoc dodges the cosmic table.

The Galactus thread is really coming along... *nudge, nudge*

I think the Xavier thread is pretty good

I think the deadpool thread is the best

Not as good as the guy who started the Green Arrow or agent X respect threads

I think this idea is defunct now.

Closing.
