EE Curators/Reviewers

skullz17 · 2015-09-01 12:41:07

Basically like steam curators. There could be an option somewhere to become a curator. Players can subscribe to a curator who has similar tastes to them. When a curator favourites a level, subscribers get notified. I think this is basically a better version of the featured tab.

Possible ideas:
- Instead of getting notified about favourites, create something separate called recommendations. I thought this could be separate to favourites because you don't necessarily want everyone to see what you favourite, but also because you might want to be a curator for a specific thing, such as clever systems/devices.
- Recommendations could have a small bit of text attached to them where curators can write in more detail what they thought of the level.
- Perhaps allow people to create multiple curator thingies, so that maybe they can have one that recommends beautiful art, and another one for levels with clever mechanics, or something like that.
- Maybe there could be a way to check how many recommendations a level has, and from which curators. So if a player likes that level, they can subscribe to the curators who have similar tastes to them.

another idea: reviewers

special snowflakes who have the power to review worlds and give sophisticated feedback

reviewed worlds would have a little note bar kind of like this

and players can click on it and read reviews

"Your account must be at least 2 years old."

Please, I don't want noobs being curators.

Or we can just let everyone do this and let people decide who they agree with.

No, I mean anyone who you decide to subscribe to.

"oh no gotta delete crew system because quitin made a crew"

To avoid bad reviews, maybe all people could write reviews, and everyone could upvote/downvote, comment on those reviews, but only the most helpful, accurate reviews could be on top so everyone can first see those.

Well that is like, "who likes this specific world", but what I'm suggesting is more like, "what worlds are liked by this specific curator/reviewer". I think we should have both.

Or we could just use the old rating system everyone seemed to like, rating 1-5/5 stars like in Platform Racing 2

Why not do it like steam then? having Crews curate levels (like community groups in steam can).
You could have an option to subscribe to crew alert and curations then :3

This opens a whole new possibility for spambots and idiots that don't know what they're saying!
So great having no account/age guidelines!

How about you have to apply to be a reviewer/curator. To apply, you must have an account of at least 1 year of age. If you do not fit the requirements to be a curator on your current account, but you can prove ownership of another, older (non-banned) account, you can still become one. Mods/admins will review the applications and decide who gets the reviewer status. All reviewers will get a pencil icon to the left of where the BC icon is.

Edit:
Also, there could be a "reviews" button somewhere in the chat/level info area that shows all reviews for the world.
