why is a forum post approved?

http://www.n4g.com/gaming/News-143336.aspx

the list is not even accurate, it is missing 10 trailers

Concering pending articles and the mass amounts sitting there.

I agree, I've been trying to get my C-Rank up, but it's been at 11 since about 27k Points. Now at 47k and it's still there. Wish my approvals had more of a weight than 2.

C-Rank does not depend on points.It  can be because of your bubble count or the amount of stories you submitted.

admins mods please change title to include south africa, its a poor submission anyway but the title is very missleading

This story was failed despite not being a duplicate.Could someone do something?
I clearly mentioned that it was no more a duplicate.

I am your father and your mother.

Just out of interest, why did you completely change the story to something different, rather than just deleting it and submitting the new one.

As a result it looks like I've reported it as a duplicate, which it originally was, but falsely now.

You were not wrong,it was a duplicate before,but it had bits of additional info.Well,it's not you.
Other people just swooped in without reading the other reports.
Anyway,just forget about it.Deleting it?You have a lot to learn before getting more C-Rank friend.
It is the worst thing you can do sometimes.

can someone get this rubbish taken down http://www.n4g.com/ps3/NewsCom-144107.aspx?CT=1 this is a forum post and not allowed, everyone who approved it should be banned from approving stories

This garbage http://n4g.com/ps3/News-144126.aspx and this nonsense should just DIE http://n4g.com/ps3/News-144107.aspx. There's no actual valid link  to prove otherwise for either story.  This site is just run by fanboys.

Note: As predator pointed out, the users who approved it should be punished.

What the hell?  How is that even close to being news?  Hope the people lose their ability to approve/submit stories.
 
Anyway, this story ( http://www.n4g.com/ps3/NewsCom-144121.aspx?CT=1 ) has broken the rules.  Those who approved it did so even when the title was completely changed from the original.  The category is wrong as well.  It should be interview, but it is labeled as news.  Both the contributor (who acknowledged the change saying: "if I wrote that who will click on the story?")  and approvers should be punished.

and this http://www.n4g.com/ps3/NewsPendingCom-144189.aspx?CT=1 come on mods admins get this crap off this site, jesus there is like 3 or 4 stories on that front page that is taken the piss on n4g guidlines and rules

http://www.n4g.com/NewsCom-144011.aspx?CT=1#Comments

How did this fake news get approved? There were over 20 reports before it hit front page.

http://www.n4g.com/tech/News-144518.aspx

I submitted the same story,mine was failed.

Duplicate.

I am your father and your mother.

This story was submitted

http://www.n4g.com/xbox360/News-144464.aspx

Ignoring the fact it was a duplicate of this story

http://www.n4g.com/NewsPending-144421.aspx

Please fix

Change STUFF to Staff

Sort out that title - http://www.n4g.com/ps3/News-144789.aspx

this article:

http://n4g.com/industrynews/News-144856.aspx

uses the exact same story as

http://n4g.com/industrynews/News-144856.aspx

This certainly isn't very fair submitting the same story twice under different headlines.

http://www.n4g.com/NewsCom-145159.aspx
 
The submitted story description is editorializing, and is not the actual story's description.
 
Furthermore, a new theme is not newsworthy.

http://www.n4g.com/NewsCom-145159.aspx?CT=1&Page=2&Page2=1#C1085340
 
the story is a forum post, and is just useless flamebait by some ps3 fanboy who is apparently unaware that the 360 does custom themes too.
 
pls delete,
 
thanks:)

I followed the link and discovered that the story's description is in fact the original text, not editorializing. 

Boink, nowhere is there any reference to the 360's ability or inability to create custom themes.

In fact, I think our own uber 360 fanboy, Syko 360 would get more than a kick out of having a Gears theme on his "blu-ray player".
