Alright, well, now for the less glamourous part of my job. The new enhanced CR 2.0 BETA is now up and running and accepting not only EDIT ISSUES submissions, but now ADD ISSUES and ADD VARIANTS as well. There's going to be more interaction between approvers, submitters, reviewers and therefore, not everyone is going to agree on stuff. Out of necessity, we have implemented a formal CODE OF CONDUCT for the system.
CCL's OFFICIAL CODE OF CONDUCT The CHANGE REQUEST system of Comic Collector Live is the means in which data is accepted, researched and approved or rejected. If approved, the information appears in the master CCL database for all to see. The data is submitted by any member of the community, and also can be viewed and commented on by any member of the community. There are 3 main factions involved in your submissions: Submitters - the person adding or editing the data Reviewers - any member of CCL that views or comments on the data Approvers - CCL employees as well as certain members of CCL that either approves or rejects the data based on the accuracy of the data. Due to the high number of submissions and reviews, it has become necessary to implement a CODE OF CONDUCT in the CCL Change Request system. This system will allow users to monitor comments made by anyone in the approval process, and flag the comment as inappropriate based on content. CCL will hold accountable members who do not adhere to CCL's code. Comments that should be flagged for content should include: 1) Foul language 2) Personal attacks against another CCL member If a member suspects a comment is a breach of CCL's Code, the member should flag the comment by hitting the 'flag' icon in the box that the member's comment appears in. This information will be sent to CCL employees and reviewed as good or bad. CCL members that violate the code will be subject to consequences, which could include rights revoking, suspension or possible expulsion from CCL. Once a comment is flagged for content/abuse by a CCL member, a CCL employee will investigate the incident. A notification will be sent to both parties, making them aware of the investigation. Approvers who are found in violation of the CCL Conduct Code will be subject to these steps of disciplinary actions: Step 1) Warning
Step 2) Revoked approval status (This will take away the members right to approve or reject data into the CCL db.
Step 3) Revoked submitter/reviewer status (This will take away the members right to add or edit any data into the CCL db. Reviewers/Submitters who are found in violation of the CCL Conduct Code will be subject to one of 3 levels of severity. Step 1) Warning
Step 2) Suspension from affecting data for any length of time as decided upon by CCL.
Step 3) Complete revocation of adding or editing data for good.CCL considers this Code of Conduct policy, however CCL also reserves the right to make any changes or summary disciplinary it sees fit for any reason.
I would much rather stick to my role as approver extraordinaire than have to police this system, however, please understand that I DO care about CCL and as grand poobah of approvers, first and foremost, my concern is the DATA. That being said, as nice, cool and modest as I am, WOE BE TO YOU should I find you violating these rules. Also, WOE BE TO YOU should you abuse the system. Roles are privledges that can be taken away. It's as simple as that. Now, I'm glad that's settled. :) Let's go have some fun in CR 2.0 Beta, shall we?

Thanks Steve! As we move forward with more and more updates to CR2.0, we need a good set of conduct guidelines. The bottom line is that approvers are given authority by CCL, and should conduct themselves with tactfulness and discretion when interacting with other members of CCL. With Great Power Comes Great Responsibility. Steve (The_Valiant_One) has full authority over the CR system, and he will be calling the shots. If you have any questions, comments, or complaints, please direct them to Steve. If you have praise or kudos, by all means direct those comments to me. Thanks for everything you guys do. This should begin speeding up data entry and updates, and help eliminate much of the frustration that came from the old system. Rock and Roll!!!

Looks good, and-as all Codes of Conduct do--boils down to "Be nice or else."
One thing that I didn't see in there & wasn't sure if you had something in place for: report abuse. That is, users repeatedly reporting comments that aren't COC violations to try to get someone else banned. Obviously it's a hard charge to make stick but if it happens enough to be noticeable there should be consequences. Maybe something like "Users abusing the flag option (unnecessarily or deliberately flagging comments that do not violate the COC) may find themselves under disciplinary review as well, based on the severity of the abuse."
It's always good to keep 'em honest...

Indeed. I've seen this kind of behaviour at other sites and it's not only irritating to the person who is being flagged out of spite, but depending on how click happy the 'flagger' is can cause real headaches for the site admins.
It doesn't matter if it's 50 Cents or 50 Dollars - if you list it as NM it better be NM.Xylob's Most Wanted:    G.I.Joe Special Missions TPB 2 Tales from the Transformers Beast Wars: Critical Mass Transformers: Timelines #3 - either cover, no preference. Problems with CCL?
615-264-4747
Offices are open M-F 8am-5pm Central Time.
You can also e-mail the Chief Brand Officer directly to try to resolve questions/stuff at steve@golocomedia.com for help with password resets, general customer service questions, store order resolution, credit card store updating, questions about comic books and CCL, etc...

Yup - we booted a guy off our our MINI Cooper site for repeatedly breaking rules and being a consistent PITA. Let's just hope he's not a comic collector!

It's always good to keep 'em honest... Fortunately, I was forward-thinking with my hullabalutions and built the "Report Abuse" feature as a task that can be denied. Meaning, you keep sending pain signals to the brain and you get your nerve cut.

I'm the best there is at what I do. But what I do best isn't very nice. I don't want EVERYTHING, just ONE of everthing will do nicely.
