Thanks for helping with the codes in the last few days. I really appreciated it. :thumbsup:
Happy to help out!
Although, I'm out of codes again, so I guess it'll be a while...

hj9k1, you can wait a little to see if tigrotto will reply, and if not, you reply. This way you control your pool size. If you issue that many invites, admins may increase you monthly allowance. It's on a case by case basis. As for myself, the ones I have are enough for the Discord requests.

The generated output of your video editor may be bloated, too big for not any significant benefit. One thing you can do is use HANDBRAKE with the H.264 (x264), RF18 Constant Quality and Web Optimized / Fast Start options, all other options by default. You'd be surprised how smaller the video becomes, without any impact to the quality.
:yes:

Interesting for further details about the process.

Ok, clearly I was wrong when I had the distinct impression that it seemed very unhealthy to further push the work load onto one single person.


And yes, if there is any doubt, I found your reply both condescending and seemingly disconnected from reality.

First of all, sorry about my tone, I'm sure you didn't mean it quite the way I read it. I should have avoided replying until my feelings of :rant: subsided.

That said, the suggestion I posted may well be stupid, but I slightly lost it when the first feedback was not even that the suggestion is bad, but rather something which seemed to effectively suggest that there is no problem; all of this in the context of one single person effectively handling all requests in the very active Reddit thread dedicated to this purpose AND them just having received an enormous allotment of invite codes to be able to deal with that better.


I will not argue over this, I do not desperately need to be able to help if it turns out that no one else thinks this is a problem, but to me it just comes across as extremely unsustainable to further push this onto one person.
Hence my suggestion, which was purely based on my own experience and what I thought would seem to make it practical for any average user to contribute on a regular basis.
(The inflow of requests is high enough that even with myself just dropping by that thread a handful of times, I as a regular user run out of codes after a couple of days, and then the "cooldown" appears to be ~1month.)

Sorry for not giving an exhaustive reply the other day. So here it is.
hj9k1 wrote: Tue Jan 28, 2020 8:58 pm However, wouldn't it make sense to give users more invites in general to balance things out better?
I don't know if giving people more codes would change things. Even with 4 codes per month per user just about 50 people would be enough to hand out all the codes each month. I don't know why not many people give out invite codes and I don't want to criticize those who don't, but I'm happy and grateful that some do or at least showed interest to help. (I saw a new guy that recently joined dropping by to send his codes today which is nice)
With that said...

I'm happy you are concerned about this but it looks worse than it actually is. I check the thread just once a day and it takes me 2 to 10 minutes (15 if there are really a lot of requests that day) to hand out all the codes.
Anyway I'm happy if people drop by to help and I get a "day off" or others decide to do it more consistently (also because I may decide to leave at some point in the future and so someone else will have to take care of that job).

So if you or anyone else wants to help you are more than welcome to do so and it's actually really appreciated.

Noticed it. Thank you! :thumbsup:
SluttySlut wrote: Mon Apr 27, 2020 1:30 pm So it seems to me that you must have more invites than I do to give away.
Unless you've been given more, you have 4 codes per month. I have a few more than that... :-D

Help is always appreciated. If you want I'll PM you some of my codes.
Let me know. Thank you.

Don't worry about it, do what you can.
I check the thread once every day so everyone will get a code anyway.
I sent you a PM with 30 codes. Thanks for helping.
