RSS and Ratings?

Hi, Alex.

Your work is very much appreciated.

"The RSS will work like this. You will subscribe to Lost for example.
When a Lost subtitle will be uploaded, you will be notified..."

For many members, that could mean a lot of RSS/url links to maintain and monitor.

"auto-downloading is not my style." Me neither! So...



TVTorrents has a system whereby a subscriber has a "Favourites" page, with a RSS link.
I use a RSS feed reader with the "Favourites" url plugged into it.
Whenever a new **** for one of my "Favourites" is uploaded, my RSS feed reader pops up with a link to it.

Very useful!


On a different matter: I would like to see a rating system for subtitles.
I suggest three rating categories: "Good" and "Bad", of course, but also an intermediate category of "Usable".
Simple check boxes would suffice - an accompanying "Comments" panel would add icing to the cake, and provide feedback to the person who submitted it.

The quality of the subs on Addic7ed continues upwards, with few being "bad"; but, by my judgement, quite a lot don't meet a "Good" rating. (I reckon that a sub file that I have to spend more than 10 minutes of correction and editing on is not a "Good" sub - but it is not necessarily a "Bad" one: it might merely be full of spelling mistakes, which do not make the sub. unusable, merely very irritating!

Cheers,
s.
