I understand your grief movieman, but there is little to be gained by getting personally offended by any users.

Give it a few weeks, and let things calm down, and hopefully you'll be back somewhere down the road (I know I will be at some time  )...

Peace out and be free!   

Hi Berak

I'am just sorry for all my hours, days, months even years off contributions to make the database so correct as possible, every time from the original disc (not like somebody) but the thanks I get you can read in this forum and some emails I get so it stops for me here but thanks for the support.

I felt the same way as you do now some months ago when I decided to throw in the towel. I felt discouraged that all the hours I'd put into the profiles I had updated got changed én masse by certain individuals not even owning the actual DVD. And when it became apparent that the changes being made contained numerous errors, and still got accepted it made me even madder. There was even a statement made by Ken that encouraged this behaviour.

However - after giving it some thought, and reading what other users felt on the subject, I decided it was a rather egotistical approach to just stop contributing. If you feel content with a profile you have audited or made from scratch, you shouldn't let it bother you that others make changes to them. It might be something you overlooked in your initial audit even. If you can verify that their changes is wrong, you of course vote no, but if you feel they just add unsupported data (which unfortantely now is encouraged by Invelos) you can always vote neutral.

My point is - don't let some users (in lack of a better word) Gestapo-tactics get to you. Ignore them and move on - we need all the contributors we can get, and in the end - hopefully - the result will be awesome.

Keep on rockin'...   

Regarding the new locality of movieman1964



   

But really:
I'm sad to see you leave, your work is and will be appreciated.
It's just that everyone (except one) makes mistakes and if you can't accept that this one is possibly not you (as far as I know the current pope is german and not belgian) and take changes to your contributions too personal, it's probably better for you (and your health) to resign.

Hope that you'll reconsider this decision in times to come.

Are you the pope or something? No i'am not  just wants a little bit off respect

What do corrections of profiles have to do with respect?

I respect the work of every single contributor to this database, but still if I find errors (in the profiles I own) I try to correct them. There's no such thing as sacrosanct data and if anyone finds errors in my contributions, I would be glad to find them corrected.

Same here! 

Sorry to see you go, movieman!
Many thanks for your contributions so far, and take care!

Giga Wizard do you now how to remove all my contibutions (online) ?

I'm not Giga, but the answer to your question is: There's none, all you could do is withdraw your pending updates and, if you would be really ill-willing, to overwrite your contributions with junk data.
This at least would be a unique behaviour in the history of this database.
