Pending Issues

There are currently some issues with pending and approving certain stories (and even failing).

If you have a submission that should have shown in pending or should have been approved based on number of approvals, please submit a ticket about the submission via http://n4g.com/tickets/add/... .

We have a temporary work around to make sure they show up until the issue is resolved on the back end.

Thank you,
Christopher

P.S. And, yes, the developers are looking into this issue right now.

How do you check your notifications at anytime?

Edit: Nix that, see below. Even I didn't know this was implemented.

why does it give error when accessing n4g on mobiles over slower network? this has been my prime issue nowadays. it works when browsing using WiFi but not when you're on mobile internet.

Chris why can't I delete my old private massges?

I am on a smart phone but when I go into my PM and check all the messages I want to delete and press delete nothing happens.

[Christopher]

@nix and @Fin_The_Human: Please use feedback! I am not a developer. Only they can answer these sort of things. I'll copy and send these on to them, but you honestly should feedback every issue/suggestion you have. Please.

Thanks @Christopher @Stonewall

comments section are all over the place i hope you are taking the feedback, it's so annoying now when you want to see your comments in an article.

[Christopher]

Keep using the feedback form. They are listening to you, telling me is just me telling them the same thing. It matters when you tell them directly.

[rainslacker]

I'd say use feedback. I sent something in saying how hard it is to find news now compared to the old layout, giving details of the problems, and they actually did respond back with something that felt it was personalized to what I said, and not just some stock reply.

As to what I mentioned, they said they're working on the layout, and changes would come to hopefully improve it for article discovery. Just hope it's before E3.:) I miss the days when I could fine 10-20 interesting articles, or at least some stuff to get my fan boy on in the discussion threads.

Since the pending section has the same issues with finding good news, it may resolve the fact so much is going unnoticed now, although that's a separate issue from what this blog is about.

[Christopher]

I've seen what they have planned. The key element is user customization. Some people will still hate it, but their goal is letting you decide what you see and how.

[rainslacker]

I'll give it a go when it comes. My only issue with the site right now is discovering articles(liked the old page format as it was easier to just go through the days articles). And I am kind of annoyed not being able to jump to comments anymore, but heard that was being worked on as well somewhere.

Otherwise, the site is fine.

Anyhow, didn't mean to hijack the blogs topic on this topic.:)

I did my first review submission and it is not showing under all, creating, pending, accepted, or rejected. Is there a workaround for this or should I simply resubmit. I don't want to double post if it will work out on its own soon. Thanks

[DuoBrian]

Well, that explains a ton. Thanks for the post with info.

[RuleNumber5]

Great to know, thanks!

[Walter_Official]

Should I send a ticket if I can't remember all the submissions? I submitted about 4-5 in the past 24 hours.

[Christopher]

You can see your submissions from Public Profile -> About -> Bottom area look for lvl 1 submissions submitted.

[CowbopBeboy]

I'm having issues where articles I've posted aren't showing up on N4G whatsoever, yet if I go to resubmit them they show up as pending, despite no one other than myself being able to view them.

[Christopher]

This is what I'm talking about here.

[Paytaa]

Not really about the pending issues, just wanted to say that as someone who hated the new layout and highly preferred the old one, the new N4G is actually really nice now that I've gotten used to it. Aside from a few things that should be tweaked, i actually really like it especially with the black layout.

[Shaun2k5]

I thought something was off when everything was showing up with 20 degrees. It's cool, things like this happen.

[Pullmywaffle]

Have you implemented a way to ban people who keep sending in articles for sites like kotaku and gamesradar? If we had a way to do that through voting, it would be great.

[Christopher]

No. And we will never ban a person for submitting a legitimate submission. We would ban a site that we needed banning, but neither of those sites call for it. If you don't like the quality of their articles, don't read them.

New website. Do Not Want.

[joinsideke]

thanks for the update- you guys are doing a great job and I know all of us appreciated it, especially the open communication.

[RashBandicoot]

Hi, can someone explain why my review was labeled as 'failed'? I've never gotten this before. The error states something about opinions, but it's a review. Of course it's my opinion! This is really annoying because the topic was heating up meaning users wanted to see it.

PS: when I send out a ticket no one responds. Hence why I putting this here. Thanks.
