As Quibblo continues its ascent up into the wild blue skies of the Internet, we are seeing steady growth in the quiz creation department. While we love the increased adoption and usage of the product, we have had to think about how to handle user created adult content. The Quibblo audience is wide and varied, and as a result, we have users of all ages and demographics, some of which may be more easily offended than others. As we think about how to handle this issue, we thought why not do what we do best and poll our users!
We have gotten some scattered reports that people are having trouble with the CAPTCHA portion of Quibblo registration, more specifically, that you are getting errors saying your input doesn’t match the image.
Just wanted to let you know that we are aware of this issue, and though we don’t think that anything is broken, we did want to share a couple of work-arounds that can be used if you have this issue.
- Make sure your browser has cookies enabled.
- Try clearing your browser cache and refreshing the page.
If you are still having trouble after trying the above, contact us and let us know!
Hey all of you Quibblites out there, just wanted to pass along a monthly update and bring you up to speed on some little tweaks, twists, changes and improvements we have made to the site. Here is what we rolled out this week:
- In Page Flagging - All content flagging for offensive content will happen in-page now, with a single click. Instead of being taken to a contact form, simply click the little flag icon (
) next to any offensive quiz or comment, and without ever leaving the page, the content will be reported to us with just one click! Of course don’t abuse the system and flag everything you see, but definitely click that little image when something clearly crosses the line. Obviously deciding what content to flag is subjective, and Supreme Court Justice Potter Stewart put it best when he said (regarding pornography) “I shall not today attempt further to define the kinds of material but I know it when I see it“….wise words. - Smarter Login - Now when logging into Quibblo from any random page, you will be returned to said random page once logged in. No more clicking around after login to get back to where you were. Just a little annoying issue, but hey…those can be the worst kind! Consider it fixed.
- Storing Of Individual Results - Previously, when a user (that’s you!) had taken a quiz, we would only show your results to you immediately following your completion of the quiz, and not when you would go back later to the same quiz. Now, should you want to go back and see how you did on that Seinfeld Trivia Quiz that you took a few weeks back, your score is displayed atop the overall community results.
Those are the biggies for now, but as always, we are continuing to work hard at making Quibblo the easiest to use and coolest quiz site on the net.
Stay tuned, as we plan on re-launching the site with a whole slick-ified new look in the coming weeks.
Now as always, go take a quiz!
