So much for giving youth voices to make a difference...I've never felt so powerless.

I never even held down the enter key for my clicking... Frown

My enter key only did one, two tops, so it was much more efficient for me not to. But I know other people who were able to just hold theirs down...

I never even held down the enter key for my clicking...

You guys are good, but this amount of clicking was super-human.

You said we could hold down the enter key and let it click for us...

wasn't the last J1C up for like... two months?

We hadn't mentioned them before which is why went ahead we had no problem giving the org their funds and the situation never occured before. However, when the extraordinary amount of clicks were made it was looked into a little deeper and a cause was found. You guys are good, but this amount of clicking was super-human.

This change was due to a situation that happened last month with someone using an auto-clicker so that we not only made our quota but went twice over. Eek

How do you know they used an auto-clicker? And were they specifically banned before then?

This change was due to a situation that happened last month with someone using an auto-clicker so that we not only made our quota but went twice over.

I have a question: Who decided that we can only click 300 times? YN or, I don't know, the funders (Lissa said the funders make requests, and YN makes changes to fulfill the requests)? Or somebody else?

Thanks Ikki!

"Exploiting" people, spamming, posting the link everywhere...

I feel like I'm a politition campaigning...

Not sure why the cause seems less compelling to the community than others, but it seems it is.

It is not that this cause is less compelling than others. In fact, this was a cause I was really looking forward to clicking for.

The reason for the discrepancy lies in the fact that those of us who are overwhelmingly supportive J1C are not allowed the opportunity to participate as often as we have been towards previous campaigns. When you only have a small handful of individuals who carry the burden of probably 80-90% of the clicks, and then reduce their allowed input to a mere 300 (when we are used to several thousand a piece) there is really no question as to why we are nowhere near fulfilling our goal.

The Youth Advisory Board is organized to help address the issues that this community raises.

And we believe you have not met since when?


We would like to know your reasons, though. And why 300 clicks? Why so arbitrarily a number?

quote:

Not sure why the cause seems less compelling to the community than others,

cause the reguler board users are the people who have primarily carried every J1C, it's no less compelling it's just that the majority clicking populace can't go over 300 clicks.
