This isn't very pressing, and may or may not be needed, I just thought I'd throw it out there.

I have no problem with most of the videos on Psipog, as they are done by experienced Psions. For future videos, however, a certain grading system may help the reliability of a video. Such as, if they are spinning a psi wheel, you can give it a 5 star rating depending on how far away the hands are, how steady they remain, if their mouth is covered and/or breathing away from the psiwheel, if most of their body is in view, etc.

Or maybe you should be skilled enough to move a pencil or something more advanced before you can submit a video. These are just ideas, and some of them may be unreasonable, haha. =P But I do believe some sort of rating system should be involved, at the least.

I see what you mean, and the only rating I think is the best rating is a detailed comment by someone else; not a grading system.

how is this going to help anyone? Who would rate them? Peebrain? If he did, not everyone trusts him. It would do no good. And plus, if you forget to cover your mouth or even SHOW your mouth, your dependability goes down.

Those are all true. And I love all the videos on Psipog, by the by. =)

An alternative method would to have the users rate the videos. I read somewhere on here that someone had the idea of a video contest. In that case, we could all rate the monthly videos to decide the winner, or the mods could. Again, just a thought. I also agree with Lucidess. Perhaps a system where we can comment on the videos, not unlike youtube. Except without all the scathing remarks that youtube videos often recieve.
