A lot of people seem to have questions about how the hacks on this site get moderated by the hack moderators. If they ask a question, and someone who isn't a hack moderator answers, the information they receive might be wrong.
While our Hack Submission Guidelines should cover most issues, there are always going to be some gray areas in the rules. Since our userbase is pretty creative, they might sometimes have ideas for their hacks that they aren't sure would be acceptable in a submitted hack.
This is the place for your questions to be answered. In this thread, you can ask the hack moderators anything you need to ask them in regard to your hack and the moderation process.
What this thread IS:
- A place for people to ask legitimate questions about gray areas of the rules.
- A place for people to ask any questions they might have about the hack moderation process.
What this thread IS NOT:
- A place for people to find hypothetical loopholes in the rules.
- A place for people to argue about the rules if they don't agree with them.
- A place for people to ask random hacking questions. If you have questions about how to do something in a hack, there are far better places to ask.
Last but not least - you should not be answering people's questions in this thread unless you are a hack moderator.
In fact, you shouldn't be answering their questions anywhere.
Instead, redirect them to this thread.
[?] Miscellaneous Helpful Hints
If I moderated your hack, there was apparently a 90 percent chance it was rejected.
