Hey,

I was thinking of ways to increase the community contributions with nzbX. I figure most people do not want to take their time and post comment replies to specific NZBs (e.g informing about takedowns, passworded, nukes etc) - probably because most people use automated programs such as SickBeard and Couchpotato.

What if it were possible to - from Sickbeard, or SABNzbd for that matter - be able to up vote or down vote and even supply comments to nzbX (for ant nzb grabs from nzbx.co)? If its a simple click of a button - many people might participate. It might be even possible to prevent NZBs that have reached a downvote threshold to be de-listed and thus avoid people from automatically grabbing them.

The best way to implement such a feature might be via a browser extension (chrome, firefox extentions etc) - thus there is no need to wait for software updates to get such a feature circulating (waiting ages as a pull request :P).

Thoughts?

well i could see that being cool and all. but the whole password thing is a bit rough to do i would think. most of the time now the main rar will undo with no problems but it's the inside rar that needs the password. I guess you could have sab report to a app that sees this and then post some where about it. not sure not a programmer.. i could see it being ok to a point.

it does not necessarily need to be automated - however a google chrome extension for example could scan the page for certain text (e.g. failed to extract due to password or something, or failed due to missing parts) and automatically send reports back to the indexer (nzbX.co).

Of course it could be much simpler: For every NZB in queue/downloading give the user the option to fill out a comment, upvote, downvote and etc. Nothing automated and fully at the will of the user to initiate.

The current nzbX editorial team can ensure that there is no abuse by verifying any feedback received.
