Top of the Month
Hello All,
the first Thing one sees when coming to csdb are the "latest Releases". Normally, this is a good starting Point for fresh Stuff, but from Time to Time the latest Releases get overflooded by useless Stuff.
My Idea is to add a Top of the Month to the Main Page, which would show the top-rated Stuff from the last 30 days.
What do you think ?

Yep! Good idea!
Even better than my idea of making the custom view even more custom.
And it's easier to implement me thinks... |

Yes good idea. I'd favor a visual representation of those though, to make the frontpage somewhat more appealing. |

i see one major problem with that idea.... before you can create and present such a list, a reasonable amount of people must vote for the releases.
or to rephrase, what you are asking for is that someone else goes through the latest releases, and filters the "useless stuff" for you :)
i'm not sure how well this could work...
i thought about a "threshold" based system before too (so one could display only those releases which got ranked higher than a certain threshold), but it suffers from the same problem.
what would be really much more interisting imho would be some (not so annoying) way to "force" users to vote every now and then :) without that, all voting based filtering is kinda useless. |

Add old-school download quotas to the system. ;D The more you vote, the more you may write in the forums, download etc... ;D |

hehe, i'd vote for good old accessbits in that case then. give new users access to one general shitchat forum, and anything else when they prove beeing worthy =P |

groepaz: I dont think thats really a problem... if there are not enough ratings for the last 30 days, then there is fewer stuff in the top of the month.
I actually think this might even improve "rating-laziness" (at least for new stuff)
