Need some way to queue article submissions by jeep 12/23/2007, 8:43pm PST
Basically two ideas to help the purple part of the site:

1. The forums are the draw, here. Make it so you show more forum links on the front and let people hit a button to 'Nominate with a comment'. The points systems are stupid so don't waste your time, you'll still need to moderate what goes to the front, but having a queue of nominated posts for the Admin would make things easier to roll the front page content in a sane way.

2. Content submissions: What is put in the Article Submissions isn't, by itself, ready for the front page without some extra work by the Admin. Might be easier if you had some way to copy a formatted post directly to the article section.

Both of the ideas would probably make it easier for the Admin to change the front page, though they may encourage people to use the site more and thereby increase the total work required to run it. Also rewriting or writing new php can be a problem.

Anyway that's My Last Two Years Of Dealing With Project Managers, CMS and Workflows for you.

...might finally get around to writing a game now.
