99% of my collection is boxed and in storage

Ok, I'm confused.

You say that your collection is in storage....then how are you going through it doing audits? How can you be up to 'C' as you've stated?

Are you getting things out of storage to edit them and then returning them to storage?

If so - why can't you give examples of T!M's supposed bad behaviour? If you're not getting your titles out of storage what are you basing your profile changes on? Memory?

Just curious!

Skip is not contributing cast and crew changes, he is only contributing things he can verify from the cover scans...mostly overview formatting and MCs...at least that is what he is doing for profiles that I own.

He is comparing the existing cast and crew with what he has in his local profile, not the actual film credits.  That, at least from what I can deduce, is why he isn't giving examples.

BTW, James, if it has ever happened with me I suspect it is a rare, I don't work that way.

However, this issue with richie and yourself is somthing that i have been watching for weeks on each and evry chance you both get. You iced it for me, when you got notes edited to fix a problem, it did not take a new Contribution just edited notes, and you changed your vote to neutral. I then realized that you were voting from an agenda, what it is, I don't and i don't care.

Skip

Do not make assumptions about me please. You would not know if I voted neutral, or if I hadn't returned to a profile to vote at all. I am happy for Ken to publicly show my voting, I have no agenda personally, or in conjunction with James. And to dispel your spin and muddy the water by actually using facts, I have voted yes on many of your submissions once corrected.
I realised from the fact i had to tell you twice the footnote *1962 in one of your submissions that you were only using rear cover scans to amend profiles. Based on that I would not vote yes on the titles where you were also changing studios, based solely on viewing a credit block on rear scan not the actual disc. Please note I didn't vote no either.
Do I take pleasure that of the last 18 profiles I have seen you try and amend, I have found 14 with errors? No. As I said in my comments - just please check the text prior to submission.

Anyway this is getting tedious now. As you have said to Tim twice here, please view and heed the poll results, and be a man and admit you were wrong to make accusations about me violating my voting priveleges.

Here's a question:

Why do any of us bother contributing?

A. Because we want the online db to mirror our local one?
B. Because we want others to benefit from our work.
C. Because we feel guilty if we do nothing to improve this 'user built' database.
D. Because we get a kick out of seeing our names on a contribution.

I could guarantee that ALL of the above apply to different people.

I, personally, fall into B...but that will eventually stop.

Here's why...with the current version of Profiler once I audit the crew and submit it I can NEVER accept a further crew update on that profile.
Why?
Because I use the box to overwrite the crew titles: eg, I will have Make-up Department Head rather than Make-up Artist.
If I accept a later update (one that possibly adds a credited as) this will be overwritten. Thus rendering all future updates and the online database totally useless.

So, all these pages of talk about improving the database are kinda moot for people like me. I'm doing TV edits at the moment and it irks me to know that I will never be able to access further updates.

But Alien, you don't have to copy IMDb, you can track 10,000 titles there for FREE and poof you have your linking built-in...along with all their errors too.

BTW, Alien somehow I am not surprised that you are an A. Unfortunately that is not possible, unless you develop your own program. There are many thousands of Profiler users and many of them want the Online to reflect their personality and tastes and it simply cannot be done. The closest that profiler can ciome to that is your local, where YOU control the Rules and the data for YOURSELF, when you upload your collection then anyone who views your collection will se the data they way YOU are handling it.
