Uploaded resources

isnt there more we can do to stop the site being swamped by completely useless resources? I just scanned the new resource page and wasted 10minutes of my day. Too many people are uploading absolutely useless resources in a desperate grab for download points. I think the site deserves better.

maybe you could give a hint what, in your opinion, qualifies as "useless" and "useful"

First of all: Good morning to you from Portugal.
Second: people are still free to upload whatever they want to, as long as they follow the website rules;
Third: you are also free NOT TO download what you consider USELESS ...
Fourth: You are being rude �cause people make an effort to contribute to this site as a community in order to change teaching technics or material.
Fifth: This worksheet of yours is useless to me (but unlike you I didn �t comment about it,until now)www.eslprintables.com/printable.asp?id=686504#thetop
Sixth: If you consider the material useless you are free to go somewhere else.
Once again: Greetings from a Tiny country but WITH GREAT TEACHERS: PORTUGAL!

I just scanned that page too and saw your new resource (and it�s not even your own template; it�s PhilipR�s). Do you classify your new resource as one of those completely useless resources? Also, here is a summary of your useful contributions: 2010 - 2 contributions 2011 - 2 contributions 2012 - nil contributions 2013 - 2 contributions 2014 - 1 contribution (so far) Irrespective of this, if you don�t like what you see then go elsewhere. It�s as
simple as that, bucko. The world wide web is your oyster.

Why can �t you create your own website with more useful teaching materials and see how useful it would be |

@Lynne: love that little expression of yours:) sounds so much better than rattling someone �s cage:)@others: sounds like the beginning of flaming which reminded me of the flame warriors I �ve come across in a book and then found this page  @Lynne:btw I never found out which one you meant for me, I �ve looked through all who had caps and alas couldn �t place it  |

This sounds very much like sour grapes. Of course there are contributions which seem pointless to one person but they might be awesome to another person. Try using the search button better. It is quite possible to search only the recent contributions by the way using the �recent contributions" button. By doing this you can get only the level you want or the age. Disappointed in my fellow Kiwi. Cheers from down under, Joy |

kiweed, there are many days that I don �t find any contributions I want. Many of the teachers here tailor their worksheets and presentations to children. I teach adults, so the really childish stuff is worthless TO ME. Many of my contributions would be useless to a teacher of children because they either aren �t interesting to children or they �re too graphic.
It �s frustrating when you can �t find something useful. But ten minutes searching for something that might save me two hours trying to do it myself, or something I didn �t know I needed? Totally worth it for me! |
