Quote: Err... There is a CSDb version 2 planned, Perff asked several times in the forum for help, got no help. Funny that now people talk here now about a new CSDb! =)
Where did he ask that? I know I have offered him help several times, but didn't get a reply. So please point me to the posts he made .. |

Uh, I can't really remember when that was, etc, please forgive me. - But I am sure we spoke about that even on ICQ a couple of times, also with KBS (co-admin of CSDb). |

You're forgiven ;) Anyway, who cares if there was no reaction back then - there is now. So hopefully one of you can tell us how far you are in that process, and if you still need help.
Maybe it would be a nice idea to have people willing to help 'state' their qualifications somewhere (in a new thread perhaps)? |

"One of you" excludes me.
CSDb crew is Perff, KBS, Cyberbrain, not me, sorry.
I am not (neither officially nor inofficially) a part of this crew, even when some people think that. :)
So, I suggest you contact one or all 3 of them, or wait till one of them replies to this thread here, again. |

Very nice this pokefinder is added but so far I still
see alot of ppl adding entries without links (while the link can be found if you click on the pokefinder)
Is there not a way we can force people only to add entries
that have a file / link ?

thats not a good idea imho...next someone comes and wants to force ppl entering all credits, and a screenshot etc blabla. imho an entry, even without further link or info, is better than no entry at all. BUT there should be more/better features to aid in maintaining existing entries.... eg something that allows me to quickly go through all entries that match a certain criteria and then let me add those links (or whatever). right now its pretty much a pain in the ass to do stuff like this. |

Like Groepaz said, not a good idea.
Because, if you would force it, what about entries you know exist but don't have the file of? Or maybe somebody has a lot of c64 disks with stuff not in here yet, but no way to transfer it? Should those releases be excluded from the database?
IMHO this database is about the *information* on releases first, not the actual releases themselves. |

Sure I agree that it should be possible to add entries
where you don't have a file/link from, I've done that
with several SCS*TRC games that are still missing from
my collection.
For me it's weird that if you've already taken the effort in adding something to csdb (in some cases even added credits + screenshot) that you just leave out the file ?

Maybe it's easier for somebody to make a screendump from winvice, than to seperate the file from the other files on the d64 image, and create a new image? Dunno, could be a reason .. Although I agree with you people should make that extra effort. |

In such cases, I am sure we could live with PRG files :) |
