Announcement

This group will be migrated to the new design soon. Please contact the group admins to start the migration and save content the group may lose access to.

I'm ridiculously sorry for practically abandoning you guys!! D: I feel terrible, and this is not what I wanted to do at the time I took over the group. I hope you all will forgive me and I PROMISE I will get to rating the horde of devs as quickly as I can! orz But also, that being said, I don't see very much of a future with this group to be perfectly honest. It doesn't seem to be doing much of anything at all aside from collecting dust with the occasional rating. If anyone has any ideas on how to improve this group and liven it up, PLEASE feel free to contact meh! As far as future contests go, I am still willing to host those, but the problem is that I have no idea what to do about prizes for the winners. Again, please let me know how I can fix this mess I've made. Yes, life did get in the way very much for several months but that is not to be used as an excuse. Again, I'm sorry.

TL;DR I'm very sorry for hiatus and please tell me how to improve the group. I'll get to rating ASAP

Hi! thanks for accepting me! - sorry if this question has been covered before but do you actually get a specific number rating or just go in the folder of 1-5 or 6-10? Thanks! :confused:

You actually get a specific number, but from there it's grouped into the folders.

Hi! I just joined this group. I was looking for ways to get more feedback, and participate in an active sharing of tips, tricks, and advice. I try to comment on submissions being voted on in my other groups, but 1.) Often there are too many for just me to handle (for commenting), and 2.) I may be the only one consistently commenting. So, in hopes of finding a smaller group that I can get feedback from and offer feedback to, I got directed here. I look forward to participating, and please let me know the best ways to help, grow, and strengthen this community. Thanks so much! :)
