Devwatch

Journal Entry: Sat Jul 19, 2008, 7:50 AM
You add someone to your devwatch because you love their stuff and you find them interesting.  But, ever feel like just taking them off your devwatch because he/she constantly submits stuff, and writes a journal every freaking day.  At some point you just want them to stop because you can't keep up and gets kind of annoying?  I just took 6 of the worst offenders off my watch, and let me tell you it feels great!

The photographers who become photo mills are especially the worst. One after the other - like just stop, for one freaking second please.  Your photos are great, but come on...

I went through my watch the other day to do just the same, I found as well as a hell of a lot of photographers, it was also so many experimental/scrap-worthy works being submitted one after the other.

Dunno if you have this, but people posting MANY MANY useless journals with song lyrics, or just something stupid like...

Title: I love...
Content: you <3

Irritating...

I've done this only once to someone. After liking their previous efforts submitted I've decided to add them to watch. Then day by day I start to realise they release a journal of their every day life. Too much for me!

lol yea I've done this many times. When I first joined DA I think I did what a lot of people do and added just about anyone. I had to redo somethings. Mainly journals I turned off rather than removing them. And the fractal people can get as bad as the photographers. :(

You hit the nail on the head with the photographers part.

Funnily enough i find that its staff members that are the worst offenders with journal posts, i mean the edit feature was made for a reason, lets use it a little more often.

I know it drives me insane. It takes forever to comment on all of their deviations.
