BUT don't you need permission clearance to do some of these? ex. Resolving IRs

I tried most of them, my point total moves slower than a snail's pace. I really don't want to start a "pointwar", i made some suggestions in the past that opened up the "flood gates of nasty remarks". Not going there again, although I have the inventory to add oodles of  points....scanning seems not to be my thang, at least at this time. Not to mention recent posts on "crappy scanning" techniques. Yup, better to stay away.

This is really a rule of the website. It is written on the page of rules you have to do.

I really don't understand. Why do we learn the rules and take a test to prove you know them? Then have some ignore them and just keep doing what they want. Have you seen the news in the last few days, That is what it leads to. A big mess. Respect only has value when it is earned, not given.

As for missing backs. maybe if only the front is summited. Zero-points should be given. Is it really that hard for some to do it the right way and to flip a card over and click a button?

12,389,174 cards (or items) listed on TCDB. 3,355,488 with images- only about 27-28% of cards listed. And we talking about practice- i mean back scans. I just don't get why anybody really cares. ADMIN gets all this free labor and we are arguing that a card should be in hand for the scan. It really truly boggles my mind. 

Let the attack begin...

One problem that has arisen in the past was someone uploading the same back of gaming cards in a set, in this case, MTG cards.  But in some sets, some of the cards actually don't have the "Magic" back but also have a artistic picture.  I had to have Admin remove those so I could upload the proper back.  And now from what vrooomed wrote, it seems that it is a bigger problem than removing one image.

Personally, if I don't have the card in hand, I don't upload an image.  My choice.

You took the words out of my mouth Bruno, They think they are all the same , But you dont know 100% if it is, where as if its in your hand you know. Why make more work for Admin or the level 8's? 

Alls good... I have 100 blank back cards [or 100 cards in hand] . I scan 100 fronts and 1 back, add 100 fronts and 100 backs. What did I do wrong? Somebody surely isn't going to debate any difference in blank backs? OR are there that many, that petty?

Can you show one place where anyone complained about anyone uploading the same number of backs as they did fronts?

You're talking about hypotheticals that don't exist.  Especially when it comes you scanning cards.

I think you should have to scan each back and input each one.... He He He

Bob, nothing wrong in that if you have the 100 cards in hand and KNOW that they are all the same back.  What we are talking about is when someone has one card of a set, scans the back and uploads it for all the cards in that particular set without knowing 100% sure that they are all the same.  It has happened as I had to have Admin remove images that were wrong in the MTG gaming sets so that I could upload the proper back.

Please don't confuse the discussion(s) with such controversial posts (in this case your last line is a problem).

I understand all that, but somewhere in the posts you get the feeling we are talking about gathering points using the same back with sets that the backs are the same. Another example might be stickers with the same back. No controversary Bruno, I just don't want some reply about it being illegal to do it. Or that it's clearly stated somewhere, that's all, no biggie. Enjoy, stay well.
