Personal Movie Lists

i don't know if anyone's suggested this yet. but maybe people can make accounts for movie lists for other people to see.

it should have the same layout as vcdquality, but on every genre, it should only show which movies a user has. they can choose which movies they have.

also maybe a feature to add their own entries since vcdquality doesn't post ALL the releases.

only problem would be excess accounts for those who want to screw up the system.

just a thought.

Sounds like a good idea to begin with, doesn't it? But it seems to me, that people would begin using the lists as a trading list, know what I mean?

They'd come around to someone, "You know what, I have that rls on your list, you wanna trade?"

...Maybe it just seems that way to me.

I don't think so, primarily for the reason Thug said.
Also, if you really care that much...just register some free webspace..heh.

I see this being abused more than used for it's intent.

I'm sorry ejp, but I cannot begin to describe how bad this idea is. It's just awful....awful....awful....

Like Michael Bolten from Office Space " That is the worst Idea I've ever heard."

I've always wondered Kal..why don't you just put the
-K
in your signature?

And where did you get that avatar? hah..I tried to save it as a gif, but it only lets me do bmp.

Sounds to me like you want to do a little under the table trading, this is only asking for people to annoy other members to send them a release they know they have.

And can can imagine all the retards adding every release ever made just to look l33t? lol

As for the adding unposted releases, get your group to circulate its shit and mabie youll see it posted here automatically.

the only conceivable way of this ever appearing is if the lists were private (ie thru forum login) and weren't available to "share" to the public. its a handy tool admittedly (ie click a checkbox on a release and add to your GOTS or WANTS list) for archive purposes, but if the lists were public people would use it as an excuse to trade on the site, and we dont need nor want that.

We already know how much bad publicity this site has already gotten in the past.

But Kilo is right on target, even though I was the first to voice this [:-p]. It seems as though hes' just trying to get around, or indirectly trade movies among users.

The "-K" is just something I've always done when signing things. In "real life" I do it to (only not the letter K, I use my real initials kinda like a seal). It just sort of stuck. I do it more on instinct than anything. I thought about putting it in my sig, but it just didn't feel right. Plus I don't like that line it inserts automatically.

The avatar is something I made by taking some Brak Footage and turning it into an animated GIF. It's a fun process that I recommend for everyone.

ok I never even knew what Brak was....please don't hurt me

/me begins to edit the photo to add bubble-gum


Posted by memoman on 01-28-2003 08:10 PM:

for all these publicised lists at the top put

to mr fbi agent

(list of illegal films downloaded )

confesssion by (please put your name here)

please bring straight jacket )

signed (please put name here)

then sit and wait for a rap on the door followed by 50 fbi agents

i have never heard anyone suggest anything so stupid. plus it seems so obvious a swop/trade list or worse selling (gay!) who gives a fuck about a list of everyones films if you need lists or other shit about films etc you got you can get software to do that without needing to use on line sites.

/me knows little about this. i've Googled a bit for "vcdquality" and only found a couple actual news media stories. Where can I read some of the bad publicity you mention?

Has VCDQ ever been in danger of being shut down?

I would be lost without her ...
