Peer Review, The first step

This petition was published by Inebriatedenigma on Apr 25, 2008

Below are some suggestions to apply to Peer review or alternatives to the system currently in place.

-IMVU should either hire staff who are trained in the VGCP to review products or ensure that those who do Peer Review voluntarily are familiar with the VGCP.
*Testing of some kind must be done to ensure that reviewers are reviewing properly and not just to personal opinion.

-Reviewers should be required to have an AP or be Age Verified. As AP items being submitted as GA is the reasoning behind Peer review.

-There needs to be a way for multiple people to view a product at the same time to facilitate review for rooms and furniture, especially those that contain poses.

-There needs to be a way for reviewers to turn down products that are suspect to copyright or are copy written.
*Perhaps there should be a check mark and a field to enter in the information regarding the copyright or suspected copyright infringement so that the submitter can obtain rights to submit, remove the product, or add copyright info that shows that they have the right to submit said product.

-Developers that do not participate in Peer review should not be penalized via Tier.

-People who do peer review should be offered something to compensate for their time. In a manner not related to their tier.

-The current MCG skins need to be updated without Anti aliasing. We need a definitive border so there is no room for error.

-The process for Peer review needs to be sped up. You could have a couple dedicated in cs to approve and still save money. With other people helping the amount of items that will have to go through Customer service will be minimal after the initial launch. If your following the recommendations above of insuring the reviewers are familiar with the rules behind doing peer review you will likely need to set only one or two people to this task.
*This process should have a pre-set time limit with a turnaround of around 24-48 hours. The que needs to send older items to the top rather than in a random order to insure this isn't a problem.
