Added sid/screenshots/whatever...
I know I'm somehow the one who started the mass of "added sid" comments, but wanted to tell you all that it truly sucks. It clutters the comments fields with inappropriate info and you should really stop adding them. I for one removed all of mine already weeks ago.
So for everyone who has mistaken me as a role model of a CSDb user, sorry, you have to pick a new one. |

I agree, no need for adding comments that you've added credits or sids.. |

I did it too for a while, but Niels said he hated me for that.
And since I don't want Niels to hate me, I stopped right away. |

Important changes, however, are still welcome as a comment, IMHO. |

Wild idea: what about a change log, automatically or manually updated? |

There already is something like that, unfortunately only visible to trusted users and mods. And besides it's lacking, who added sids and screenshots and when these fields have been modified.
I'd vote for making that info public and extending the change log to cover all modifications to an existing entry (not just the text db fields). |

do we really need that info public? i can't see how that is useful, but i CAN see how this can turn out into a source for more useless babble =P |

"Motherfucker, stop editing my groups/releases/friends profile for christ's sake!" ;-)
Yeah, it could be a reason for trouble, but on the other hand, grown-ups like us should be able to handle that. ;-) |

You know what... perhaps you're right.
Let's first take care the information is there at all.
The Mods will take care of tracking down abuse or faulty changes. |

Here's my coin of senseless babblings:
I never did add such info about added credits/screenshot bla
*clapping my own shoulder cos noone else does* |

Just for the record, your massive contribution to CSDb in the last time didn't go unnoticed. Awesome job done, especially on the intros! |

Ah point taken, CBA pointed me to this post btw.
I am guilty here too, however I would like to point out once again that unlocking unused fields for files and screenshots would make life a lot easier for some of us.
