Submission bar raised to Student level
As the first step to lightening the load in the queue (See discussion here), I have made a decision today to require a user to be of a Student rank in order to submit problems.
This should not present any difficulty for anyone who is truly interested in the site, and will hopefully weed out some "fluff" submissions. |

Does this means that problems submitted by novices that are currently in the queue are going to get deleted? |

I hope not. Novices put work into those problems, and there's no reason their efforts should just be dumped. |

Sirry if I wasn't clear - no problems are being deleted from the queue due to this change. Let me know though if anything seems weird or wrong. |

I think it sounds good, just have them get a "Submit a problem" link as well, and when they click it, inform them that the need to be a student. Otherwise we will have many "How do I submit a problem" questions by new people to the site.

Hmmm... I haven't actually thought about that... That's a good idea. I have currenly removed the link for them, but I guess I will add it in the next couple of days. |
