Complaints, Concerns, Errors, Suggestions, and Ideas!

All that stuff goes here now I guess. Post anything you want to see fixed or want to see on the site. Let's try and keep all the missing items, bands, wrong gear, etc all in just this one thread to make it easier to find and retrieve later.

...Be Gentle.

Big post of stuff that I screwed up at.

http://equipboard.com/pros/dayshell

That needs to be destroyed.

Correction.

Turns out the camera was a douche and made me think that was Adam's. Needs to be removed.

One other thing, I've noticed that many artists aren't aligned to their appropriate bands.

Also: http://equipboard.com/pros/mark-smith

Mark Smith is the guitarist from Explosions in the Sky.

Edit: Case in point: http://equipboard.com/pros/tom-cowan He's the bassist and keyboardist of the Horrors.

Silly EB, I said Marshall JCM 800 2203, not 2210.

http://equipboard.com/pros/radical-face

Ben Cooper head Radical Face and is a member of two other bands. As such, this should be deleted.

http://equipboard.com/pros/jamie-hewlett

This guy makes draws stuff. He's not a musician.

How did he even get on this site?

I wish I could easily drag and drop the stuff on my equipboard to change the order it appears in. I have so much music junk that the arrow system is becoming a PITA...

I agree!

This submission bothers me on unwanted levels.

http://equipboard.com/pros/erez-eisen

http://equipboard.com/pros/amit-duvedevani

These two should be deleted. The duo of Infected Mushroom share the same equipment and work together, therefore they should be considered one whole.

On this one, we would leave it as it is because we don't have group pages, only individual artists. Is there one machine that one of the brothers uses more often? Maybe one piece is always on the right of the stage and the brothers tend to stay in the same configuration?

One of them IS mispelled though.

Amit Ducedevani needs to be changed to Amit Duvdevani

This Page needs to be deleted as it is a group and not an artist.

Terrible.

It can be denied, but no one seems to be doing that.

You know what, have you noticed that the moderators seems to be extremely biased about accepting submissions? It's not all, actually it's austinmw and miggityfriggity. They keep accepting submissions from a few people REALLY quickly, and everyone else still need their submissions reviewed. It really bothers me, and I've been holding this in for some time.

At least Boom acts like a human and talks. Haven's seen Sims or gchiaren in some time, though. All the other moderators look like they haven't been on the site for some time.

I'm sorry, that rant was uncalled for...

Don't hold it in, man! You have to vent your EB frustrations so you don't explode behind the mixing console one day....

Christian Bland from The Black Angels. http://equipboard.com/pros/christian-bland

Death by Audio Interstellar Overdriver Arbiter Fuzz Face (1967)

They should be in the effects pedals section not the software and VSTs. That was my bad and don't know how to correct it.

They've not been reveiwed yet, only recently submitted them.

Okay, a few things to comment on this.

1. Nearly 1000 submissions have been approved in the last week and nearly all of them are miggity and austin. A lot of work is done on the site that doesn't necessarily show up to members.In fact, I may have done the least of all mods and admin so far. I used to get frustrated that out of 800 submissions, miggity had already seen 600 of them, reviewed them, and had spoken with the member who submitted it :) . That dude is really on the ball.

We all have our different roles and of course different schedules in the real world. Rest assured, all things get worked out eventually. Being given the opportunity to be a moderator for this site really opened my eyes up to many things. Where I thought things just weren't getting done I realized that the shear amount of content, fixes, and programming is overwhelming. A famous quote sums it up, "The harvest truly is plenteous, but the laborers are few;".

1. Submissions are about to be submissable by members, if they aren't already.

2. Many times, members don't check on their submission status and if there isn't enough proof to make a submission, one of the staff will come through and ask for more content or help finding a make/model or etc. If you are finding that your submission hasn't been made yet, please check the status of it on your profile page. There may be a BUNCH of notes and comments from the mods mentioned above ;)

I'd also like to leave you an example of the work just 1 submission requires on average. I am guilty of all the things below as well when I was a member.

Member submission: "Guitar is CLEARLY seen in video" or "DUDE uses this item" Submits 17 minute video without using YouTube "Start From" feature.

Mod's Part: Where in this giant video is the guitar he's talking about... wait... there are 3 guitarists in this band? Which one is DUDE? Lemme go on google and look at the member list of the band.... oh okay, the guy with the beard is who he is talking about... okay.... hmmm.. That guitar looks different than the one they submitted. I'll leave a note and see if they can show me another video or something.

This is often the end of the experience if the member doesn't check on the status :( If the submission is legit however, the mod then has to reformat the entire submission, select a photo of the item, list who uses it, what band they are in, and type up a bit about it. Sometimes this can take anywhere from 3 minutes to 20 if the submission requires a lot of digging and re-writing.

I'm not posting this in a negative light or even a judgmental one. My hope is just to share enough of whats going on that everyone will be more willing to exercise patient and understanding.

In Short...

Things will be fixed eventually

Please respect the staff for the work they do

Do keep posting errors, concerns, and suggestions. That's why this thread exists!

Tis fixed sir. Thanks for saying something.

Look, I think you misunderstood me, and if not, please correct me. I'm not bagging on the mods for not doing their work, I know they are because I can see on the feed. But people like 23tmr or taylor1317 seem to get there submissions either put on hold, or accepted at a very swift pace.

The only problem is I'm still new here, and because of that, I don't think I have too much of a right to argue this point, so I'll stop here. I'm sure I'll be proven wrong in due time.

EDIT: "Nearly 1000 submissions have been approved in the last week"

Is this normal for this site, or is EB having a sudden burst of submissions and/or members?

No worries

Hey man,

Takes on average for me at least, around 10 days to get something reveiwed. There's only been 1 or 2 things but I think its because I made it accidently more difficult. Anyway what's the rush there under the artist til they get reveiwed anyway.

Yeah or and I'm probably being stupid here but deleting stuff of your equipboard like if you sell something or in my case just accidently put down something you don't have when submitting it like an Electro-Harmonix Classics Deluxe Electric Flanger Pedal now I'm gonna have to buy it (and I don't want it, I want the stereo version) or continue living a lie.
