When looking through suggested bands I see that some have 15 or more +'s, why aren't these bands added? or how many +'s does it take to add a band?

There is not specifical limit there van be 100 and band still wont be here it shood be metal moustly and for example even NS band get 1000 it wont be here, so be patiance

Staff members make the decisions in regards to adding bands from the suggestion list. The more +s usually indicates more fans, meaning their profile will be filled sooner rather than a band with only 2 +s., making it an easier choice for us to add (for the most part).

Oftentimes there are bands added that receive about 50 votes but don't adhere to the guidelines enough to be added. You can always PM certain Staff members who might have a soft spot for a band you want to suggest, but that isn't a guarantee.

Alright still 50 is quite alot dont you think?

Well, what the users often don't realize is that we try to add the suggested bands in 'waves'. We want everyone to have the time to fill in the profiles, so we're adding them in small waves. Accepting 200 bands at the same time would either result in a HUGE queue of edits (and many waiting users) or loads and loads of empty band profiles. We don't like either option.

I dunno how you guys but I when suggest a band, when its accepted I imediatly try edd all info whats possible find about band, so generaly small band 10min, big like Alice Cooper might take 5h or days

Same thing K7; when I add a profile I try to fill it in completely (or as close to complete as possible). However, some people just want their favorite bands added (along with their discography) so they can update their collection/ratings.

Some people like seeing their comm. points skyrocket and suggest as many bands as possible in order to later rape their profile with inaccuracies. Props to the users who fill in information with official sources.
