Question by Arx · Sep 23, 2015 at 07:08 AM · answers.unity3d.comadministrator

How do I contact Answers administrator?

I have posted this question here on Answers and a day later, the infobar on top of the question still says

This post is currently awaiting moderation. If you believe this to be in error, contact a system administrator.

I've searched everywhere but I haven't found a way to contact a system administrator. How do I do this?

Thanks!

You posted your question 17 hours ago so that's not even a full day. The moderation is handled by the community itself, it may take few seconds as several hours depending on the number of questions in the moderation queue. Your question is now posted I just published it.

Ah, okay! I didn't realize each question must pass moderation first, and I saw lots of questions being posted "5 $$anonymous$$utes ago", so I just automatically assumed something must be wrong with my question. Now I see the "5 $$anonymous$$utes ago" is calculated from the moment of moderator approval. Thanks a lot!

Once you build up a few karma points by participating here you will be able to ask questions and comment and such without going through moderation.

@Nerevar I just noticed this question has been closed as "off-topic or not relevant". I don't believe this to be true, as the question still stands: how do I contact the ad$$anonymous$$istrator? That is the notification the users see - if there actually is a way to contact an "ad$$anonymous$$istrator", maybe it would be best to link it directly from the notification; if there's no such role on Answers, the notification text should be changed.

$$anonymous$$y question was not meant as some kind of whine like "please approve my question" but a genuine question about the content of the notification.

Actually "ad$$anonymous$$istrator" is just a generic term, it means you need to contact the people who are actually moderating the website (it is the community). For instance UnityAnswers is a generic template integrated to unity's website so the notifications are very general and unclear sometimes .

The quetion was closed because it does not concerned unity3D itself and I thought all you wanted to know is why your question was stuck in the moderation queue and how it was working...

If you want to contact people from unity $$anonymous$$m, your best chance would be on the forum.

I can re-open the question if you still think it is relevant.

$$anonymous$$y post has been waiting in moderation for almost 2 days, clearly the moderation system doesn't work. Wont be wasting my time here again

$$anonymous$$ost of the moderators, who are just volunteers, aren't around much on the weekends. You can post in the Help Room without being moderated, or wait for a mod to get to your question. In the meantime, build up a little karma by participating in the site. It doesn't take much to be able to post without going through moderation. The intent is to have a community here. If you want something from the community, give something back to it.

Yeah, it's a fairly unclear message and it doesn't tell you how to contact an ad$$anonymous$$istrator. In fact nowhere does because I've just looked for it.

This never used to be the case. Its an oversight I think.

Probably that and support couldnt get any real work done for all the email throughput they had to deal with (on account of my harsh moderation, no doubt ;)).

Indeed, one would expect the "contact a system ad$$anonymous$$istrator" line to have a hyperlink or something.

By the way I just dug up this thread by googling "how to contact a system ad$$anonymous$$istrator in unity answers" so yes, the message seems unclear to more than just one user. ;)

I'm currently facing the same problem now. :/ I know I just started here, but I still would really like help with my problem in Unity...

Please use the Answer option for something that will Answer the question (I converted yours from an Answer to a Comment.) Take a look at the FAQs, etc... for the reasoning.

Your Q seems like personal help, just learning how scripting and Unity work, so would be better in the Help Room; where there's also no waiting. Read through the rest of the comments/answers here for more about that.

Hi, what is the link to your post? There is a huge queue of posts waiting to be moderated, if it's urgent I suggest posting in the Help Room to bypass moderation.

Is there any purpose to the moderation queue anymore? It seems like the most common complaint now is this - being stuck in it.

In the old days, we would have rejected Reaper93's Q (how to angle a shot) as being a duplicate. But I don't think we reject anything now. Does the $$anonymous$$od queue currently serve any practical purpose?

$$anonymous$$aybe it still helps with spammers, maybe. Sure, they can select the HelpRoom and bypass the queue, but maybe electronic spam-blasters can't do that, so selecting HelpRoom serves as sort of a captcha?

Yeah, and many posts published by users with higher rep than 15 kp are still duplicates or have incomplete information, yet they bypass the queue. We've really only had one major spam attack on Answers in the past couple of years (that occurred in the Help Room), the rest have been pretty manageable. I think the mod queue was set up initially for this purpose. We've upgraded to a new spam manager that should theoretically be better.

Getting rid of the mod queue is certainly something we should think over, should we set up a separate post for this discussion here in the $$anonymous$$ETA space to get some opinions from active members?

I don't think there are any active moderators, say for the last year - thus the 2 day queues and general lack of moderation. Which is sort of my point - the mod queue only made sense when there was a moderator community.

Hello @Owen-Reynolds Can you help me with this issue please because i am currently looking all over the internet to find a solution. If you have a time please give me the link.The issue is that i want a formula for an uneven ground.And it is not the angle it is a velocity that i am looking for

Update here. I have found the solution.I will post it as an answer in the theme @Owen-Reynolds No help needed and thanks in case you were going to. @SaraCecilia is there a way to make it a some sort of educational post for others to discover. Because i've been struggling too much an ended up deriving formula by myself using wikipedia and many trial and error stuff.I think it will be useful for others to see and i wish someone would have it solved and ready to use.

Some people put stuff up on http://wiki.unity3d.com/index.php/$$anonymous$$ain_Page If you put it in question & answer form on UA, you can mark the question as a "WI$$anonymous$$I".

Hi, I've moved your question to the Help Room and published it. In the future, you can post directly in there as it does not require moderation.

Answer by RHD · Aug 29, 2016 at 12:55 PM

I just asked how to contact a system administrator as that's what the message at the top of any question I ask here tells me to do and I got redirected here.

I think the answer is that we can't contact a system administrator and they don't care.

Unitys "support" or lack of it is the big reason currently that I have no plans to spend any more hundreds of pounds on the new payment system.

They can honour their agreement on the stuff I've already paid for before asking for more money and a proper support system is key.
