Site update: Mess up in progress

1 min read
In their continuous effort to improve the deviantART experience, they're publishing weekly Site Updates to keep members informed and to gather feedback(As well as there is never any response, except you praise the changes). Below is a list of recent changes to the site:
The servers lose stability because they try to fix something that isn't broken. Messages like "Internal server error" and "An error occured while displaying this deviation" appear nearly every day. Not sure if this is really an improvement.
They get a lot of feedback that noone likes this "More like this" box, but there is no reaction or response.
And finally they mess up the upload page. Maybe this is an improvement because it prevents DA's users from some bad stuff.

No honor? No pride?

TEXT GOES HERE


:iconohnoesplz:The new possibility on :devart: to start a donation pool is almost a dumb feature.More amd more people send notes or beg on the artist's pages for points.Mostly these are people you don't know, who never faved or commented anything you've made.
1 point is one cent. Will they really sell their pride for 1 cent? Just wondering.
The next step is to sell their souls. There are some guys on DA who sell their faves, features and comments for points.For 200 points, they fave your complete gallery, give you a feature and watch you.Is this the way :devart: should work? I don't think so.Can someone really be glad about faves he bought?
DA is a commercial page, and that's okay.But it shouldn't have so much "commercial" users.
I don't mean the users who start a donation pool to upgrade their groups.This is something that makes sense.And it is not selfish.It's a possibility for the group's users to show some solidarity and interest for their group.
Please comment, and tell me your meaning.
One pricelist i found today:
600 points: you get a watch + a llama + 60 faves
500 points: you get a watch + a llama + 50 faves
200 points: you get llama + 20 faves
150 points: you get llama + 15 faves
100 points: you get a llama + 10 faves
50 points: you get a llama + 5 faves
40 points: you get a llama + 4 faves
30 points: you get a llama + 3 faves
20 points: you get a llama + 2 faves
10 points: you get a llama + 1 fave
1 point: you get a llama

Unfortunately1: I killed my computer while working on systemfiles 2 hours ago.With this i lost all my favorites in Internet explorer, all my Mac related files and all files stored for private uses.Not funny, but i have to live with this.
Unfortunately2: Windows7 was installed on another partition of this machine.So i get lost of this OS too.All mdifications are lost too.
Fortunately:I have another computer with Win7 build 7000 installed. I wonder why this is still working.So i have to reinstall and modificate XP and Win7 the next days..I'm a little angry about this.Otherwise this gives me the chance to make a clean install of allm these things.
Sh1t happens.
