Oh, thanks! May I ask, are you one of the chosen few who can make this happen? 
Nope, unfortunately I know fuckall about webpage coding.  But I have run it up the ladder. 
That's great!

It may be a stupid idea, but: it's really necessary, in the reviews, the "Production" tick box? I mean, in these years, when even the poorest band can afford great recording instrumentation (don't know if I'm using the right word  ), is there really the need to rate it?
Except for a few rare albums (see Baz's reviews for Helloween's 7 Sinners and for Wintersun's Time I), the 98 percent of the reviews I see have 9 in production, just 'cause no one is accustomed to give 10.

Every year we get surprised by the amount of "never seen before" albums getting nominated for the metal storm awards , I wish there was a way to get people to know them before the awards happen ... I mean if you get to know a nomination-worthy album earlier in the year , why not share it with everyone sooner ?
( I know some of them are staff picks or reviewed , but still too many of them are unknown )

The problem there is we don't start picking the nomination til January the following year, that's why the Awards are in February. There is NO way we could possibly give you guys a heads up like "Hey everybody this album right here that was released this month (March) is going to be an MSA nom come next February!"
Best thing you can do is just make sure you check out all the Staff reviews and Staff picks, even then it's no guarantee because sometimes albums do show up in the MSAs that weren't Reviewed or Picked but it's still a good idea. The only other recommendations I can suggest is if you know of any Staff or Elites that you have a common musical taste with then occasionally visit our profile page(s) and look to see what albums we have recently added to our collections and I would also recommend trolling the New Album Recommendations 2013 thread periodically and keep an out for phrases/comments like "possible MSA material right here" or "this is *AOTY material here", etc..
*AOTY = Album Of The Year

old days there was wratchild - moderating
it will be easyer to find a person in suchway
Contacts
Ivan - Programming and design
D.T. Metal - Reviews, interviews, press matters
Baz Anderson - Promotion, ads and partnerships
BloodTears - News
Ivan put up a "useful links" section on the bottom now! And just an FYI - Baz Anderson is no longer the promo dude; hasn't been for a while.
Those of you who fiddle in the database know exactly who to contact and the user who has Q's about the band stuff can find Pysko's info in the "About us" tab under "For requests to add your band into our database please check HERE."
Since a lot of people do the moderating, the need to put a single person down as a moderator is no longer there.

Is there really the need to wait 90 days for a guest review to be written, after the release of an album? I mean, it can have sense if a Staff member is already writing a review for that album, but I find it pretty useless for albums which are not in the queue. While the writer waits, time goes by and interest lowers.

I'll repost an old question which didn't receive any answer:

Wouldn't be useful to substitute "Production" with "Accessibility" (meant as "easiness to get into")?

I don't know if this has been suggested before but, could it be possible to have a rating system with not only integer numbers?
I mean something like 10, 9.9, 9.8, ... and so on.
With the actual system there's a lot of difference between the different options to vote. I might not feel like an album deserves a 10, but a 9 seems too low.
Also, I think the MS Awards should have some kind of effect to the albums winners.
There could be a badge or a link, on an album description, showing that the album was on the top three of a given category.
EDIT: About the MS Awards thing, I've seen there's a link on the album winners. The second and third positions could have something similar.

Are you talking about staff reviews or guest reviews? If you mean for your own guest reviews, you don't have to rate every category. Leave it blank if you like!

Sorry to hear that you are bored at work, but kudos that you prioritize and browse MS during that time. Unfortunately Tapatalk is not in the cards for the foreseeable future. If it becomes available we will make a post about it. Sorry dude.

To end this conversation, let's put it this way - as soon as it is available you will be the FIRST to know.

The engine is 100% custom, which means the Tapatalk support has to be coded pretty much from scratch.

Ok, I see.
I checked and one can make a tapatalk plugin for his own board in XML, using tapatalk's API. So you need someone who knows XML.
Anyway, thanks for the answer.

There is. It's called Additional info. When you edit your collection, there is a section for additional info where you can list anything you want about that album. Whether it be price or if it was your first metal album or the album you lost your virginity to, no rules on what can or cannot be put in that field.

Completely unnecessary, since that kind of info is considered miscellaneous/random/additional info, to make a separate field just for that when it can be easily included in the additional info field (which is exactly what the additional info field exists for).
