| Posted: | | | | I picked up a another New Line cheapy dvd at Big Lots yesterday, a movie called "Felony" from 1995, dvd 2005. Despite it having a cut in the UPC, I could clearly read the numbers. I plug the numbers in and Soap: the Complete 4th Season pops up! So Felony is already in the database under disc ID, but today I try clicking preview for that Soap set. I see 2 front cover scans and some disc ID #'s. Then I run this UPC 794043841323 in google, and every single link is about the Felony dvd. This can only mean the Soap box set does not have this UPC. I can prove my movie does, the scans are up (I clone-stamped and painted out the small cut in UPC, but would happily revert them and show again if anyone wants that). Can anyone with Soap season 4 tell us the UPC? The existing contribution is from Hal9g in 2007 and no action on it since (probably just brought over an old error profile from the old site). Not saying he did anything wrong, and if you're reading this hal please check your UPC especially.
So, how do we get rid of the bad info and let the rigfht stuff in? I'm hoping bringing it to light is the proper first step. | | | Last edited: by bigdaddyhorse |

| Posted: | | | | Ok I just changed my UPC and fortunately the CORRECT profile is already there. So all you have to do is overwrite the old bad data with the detailed explanation

| Posted: | | | | Yeah, the profile is there under disc ID, although I made plenty changes to that as well. Just re-subbed with new UPC and links like mentioned. Does hal have a rep for bad profiles? I can't keep everyone straight on this site.
Thanks for the tips! |

Quite the opposite if you ask me! I consider him a very trusted and reliable source for updates. Possibly his source for the UPC was incorrect, this looks like one of those pre-release contributions. | | | It all seems so stupid, it makes me want to give up! But why should I give up, when it all seems so stupid?

Quite the opposite if you ask me! I consider him a very trusted and reliable source for updates. BTW, Rick I have to wonder why you felt the need to respond. I ignored bigdaddy's reference because it wasn't relevant to anything. And i chose not to mention the user's name for exactly the same reason. I was amused, but mistakes happen, just like dung. I was certain that with bigdaddy's explanation comes up for vote, the user would read and say whooops, I would, there is no need to make a public spectacle of it, even if you or I think he is usually reliable.

| Posted: | | | | Seems like a mistake happened. If you don't find a link to Soap under this UPC it seems like this.
I would do this in such cases: Correct the profile to the new movie and submit it with explanation. -> If Soap is the correct/first profile, anybody will let you know with the votes. (In most cases) |

| Posted: | | | | I would say not necessarily, Rick. But that's your choice.Or I might have PM'd him rather than making more of a spectacle of it than it needed to be. Just my opinion.

Skip Don't feed the troll, Skip. I'm sure if you ignore Rick's negative-attention-seeking public spectacle of actually complimenting and vouching for the good quality of a user's updates that he'll stop. | | | ...James
