We're working on improving editorial as well as everything else. Sorry if I came off as abrasive but I read enough criticism in a day to last me a life time.
We're not going to rename it but I'm telling you right now it will auto post anything that meets the vote requirements, no matter the topic. It will be live in the next week or two.
Submit them into the firehose and let them get voted up. The firehose is where you can give your vote on which story we should pick. We will also be incorporating stories that will auto post to the front page from the firehose when they reach a critical mass of popularity, including requirements such as a certain amount of votes from high karma users, users with old accounts, and other filters like an enhanced dupe checker. You have a low user ID and high karma so your votes will matter greatly. To answer your question of how many weeks we need, I am not sure. However if you think you're going to engender haste to enact your wishes, calling people on our staff worthless losers probably isn't your best bet.
My intention is for it to equate to, as I've said multiple times, "we hear you and we are working on it.. Bear with us while we improve." I read criticism all day long, be it founded or unfounded. We hear you. We are working on improving. Rest assured I read every single comment. I just think energy might be better served with a productive discussion on the story, or discussing another story you actually like. Your gripes about editorial are well noted at this point and I am working with editors.
That's not what I'm saying. I am just saying if someone voices their opinion with the subject line "who the fuck cares", I'm going to put less weight on that than someone who voices it thoughtfully. The OP in this thread was more thoughtful than some other commenters.
No I've been logged in all day. To declare your hopes dashed because of a story, or a few stories, that you don't think fit the ethos of the site is a little premature. We are working on it. It's only been a few weeks. Give us time.
Beatles are Z-List celebrities. Noted. And I was just saying bluntly you should move along if you're not interested. The majority of commenters here are.
Oh we're listening. Just not to the AC posting "who the fuck cares" when the majority of comments here are actual good discussion. No one's stopping you from spewing venom from your pulpit of anonymity though so keep on keepin on
Alrighty
Glad you agree. Sometimes I think people just snap if there are any references they find not to their taste
That must have just been updated. Updating story.
The technology is pretty cool. Are you saying it's shit just because it mentions something from popular culture?
Thanks for the support!
I'm paying attention
We won't can the story based on its political leaning. Also you do realize Dice is no longer the owner of Slashdot right?
Would also like everyone's opinion here regarding videos on Slashdot: https://slashdot.org/poll/2973...

Alright cool thanks. Appreciate it
Good talk. See ya out there

En route
I just mean do you prefer evenly spaced articles at all hours, or more articles during peak hours

Botanist
No

We actually noticed this gap before we acquired it. Do you guys prefer 1-2 hours at all times even through the wee hours of the morning?
