Title: Application Limit?
Post by: Carolyn on January 30, 2007, 04:24:52 PM
I don't know if this has been brought up before, but I'd like to propose an increase in the limit on applications. At first I didn't know where 6 came from, but then I realized that that was the limit at TFL, and was carried over. But, if anime/manga fanlistings are so big that they warranted their own network, shouldn't the limit be increased as well? When you factor in that upcomings count as well, even once you've submitted finished forms, the limit is a real pain, especially if you apply to less popular and updated categories.

I'm not saying that 20 per category is reasonable, but maybe 10? I don't know, just my thoughts. It's frusterating to miss fanlistings because you have 3 that are upcoming but you've submitted finished forms for, 2 that are upcoming and 1 other pending application.

Six was the limit at TFL, and is considered a reasonable limit for each category, based on the time it takes to make a fanlisting and how many applications serial applicants like to send in. I have no intention of raising this limit without SERIOUS consultation with the category staff, and as we have many people who regularly abuse the system, I don't think they'll be eager to raise limits.

If this changes, it will be announced site-wide, but until then, we're sticking with six. Thanks for your question. :D
