@dub I fixed it for now. I will further optimise it today.

@Operator Megawall https://namethatporn.com/megawall is down, isn't it?

@NinNin Thanks for catching that. We upgraded into another cache system yesterday and there was one important syntax change, which was iffy if there will be any errors. So it is very very good, that you found that actually!

@Operator There seems to be a problem with the search function. When I search for a porn star, results will show, but when I click on any of them, nothing but an empty page shows.

@L1bru5 that is a good question. There are multiple ways. For an old answer to pop up in the review panel, lets say it needs some confirms. Or someone starts an action on it.

Here is a screenshot of the in-site "start an action" panel. It is the first initial one, so nothing is rock solid. And most probably, not all users can simply start these actions.
But general idea is, that based on specific levels users can start up actions. And then from review panel, other users can vote on those. So lets say Ninnin starts a vote on your 2 year old answer, and other users will vote yes. Confirming that they have verified the source of the answer and names and etc.

@Operator - I am meaning for the really old questions where OP is either not accepting, no longer visiting this site, or was an anon.

This new system is (or will be) in place for the community, how do go about getting these old ones accepted? is it a certain number of confirms? Like for example, 5 people confirm an answer... is it flagged or something? or automatically marked as correct...?

I have close to 450 pending answers so I was wondering what can I do? (if anything)

@bergersnfrys Yes you can in theory change username. But you need to contact us privately, not in a public forum.

@bebunw That is not a solution. Solution is community moderating, which I mention in absolutely every reply here. Scroll down and read what is going on.
Level 4 you can edit and delete your stuff.

@L1bru5 I don't understand the question. If the OP is level 1, then the answer needs 1 confirm. Otherwise there is no minimal requirement.

I mean in the bounty section not the scavenger, at which level are we able to edit a post ?

Block user function: we block a user who never answer back to confirm for each of his question so his questions never happen again to me on all the website, that way i can also prevent very old questions who got answered by the community with all the proof like the first one in scavenger hunt section and laying there for 3 years

@Operator - so how many confirms are needed before answers are marked as correct?

soo we cant change profile names?

@Anon_d9c.FFLwPMtPg - It's called Working , Why don't U Try it sometime.... I have over 800 Definite answers waiting.... Now I only answer AFTER I check if user is Still around, or ones I Want to Know,,,,,Oh, and check that last comment U left Me, AH

@Anon_d9c.FFLwPMtPg

Trust me, everyone is indeed in the same sinking boat when it comes to points. Some users just spend an ungodly amount of time on this site doing nothing but answering question after question, which is how they get at the top of the leaderboards every month. I myself just refuse to answer questions from users who I know for a fact don't except answers in a timely fashion, and I suggest that everyone follow suit. That's the only way more answers will be accepted.

I find it more and more difficult to believe that "everybody is in the same boat," when I've kept seeing the same exact users consistently on the top 10 list every month that I've been here. Now that tells me one of two things, either they're being favored for some dumbfuck reason or they've figured out a way to rig the system somehow in their favor. It must be nice getting all their answers accepted, but then I wouldn't know. I have hundreds of posts just sitting around waiting to get accepted and probably not even a quarter of them ever will be. So I ask myself what's the point. There's only so much time a guy can wait before he says fuck it.

@L1bru5 hello, that is the thread to request confirms from users. I don't know how often users confirm each other.

@Operator - is there a new thread where we post for confirms or still use the same one? I have about 6-7 pages of answers needing confirmations under my "following" page

@Operator

Since moderation has ended, I've noticed that many users have answered questions asking for videos by just providing video links without tags or additional info. And users have been confirming these answers because OPs are likely to accept them. An answer like this provides the most minimal amount of info and cannot be added to the database; it is a low standard for answers.

Now--correct me if I'm wrong--but it sounds as if tags are necessary for all answers and confirming answers without them will result in point deduction, which I support.

Here's an example:

Where can I find this video?

Are these considered partial answers that need tags?

UPDATES

You can from now on recieve negative points for bad quality/wrong confirms. For example, if the confirmed answer is found to be missing name tags, needs proof or is partial, you'll recieive -5 points. This will only apply from confirms made from this point onwards, older confirms won't be counted. In either case, if an answer is not accepted as correct, the confirms will reset. NB! +1 Point for every confirm made is also removed.

The purpose of this is to ensure that confirming is taken more seriously by users, thus resulting in better confirms that will, in turn, be marked as correct faster.

There's also a warning that pops up after you click the confirm button, to verify that you indeed intended to make that confirm, in order to rule out confirms made by a mistake.

Also fixed:
+ Being able to mark as correct or confirm thread comments. (Dont answer threads, report them. Your answer cannot be marked as correct!)
+ Newer messages not appearing in private chat.
+ Double confirming glitch.

Addons:
+ Added green ticks in Questions tab in profiles for questions, that have been solved.
+ The green ticks are also in Comments tab and show you if the question is solved (Remember, that this tab shows only unsolved answers, so the accept had to go to someone else.)

Changes:
+ Level 1's cannot accept answers with no confirms anymore. So if you are level 1, the answer in your post, needs minimal one confirm and then you can accept it. This will prevent completely fresh users, from making mistakes.
+ There is different event for OP accepting his own answer and system/moderator doing it. The last one will result in a 2 point minus.
