Hello all!
Many of you are here for so many years and I am really curious to know whether you remember your first project you worked on as subber/moderator/channel manager and do you remember the date when you first wrote your subtitle or when you first cut a segment?
Please share them here!
I wrote my first subtitle on January 13 2021
As a subber my first project is playful kiss
As a moderator my first project is Luca the beginning
You could have revived one of them and invited other people to reply as well.
It makes me really sad when people duplicate the same subjects for no reason.
@irmar
Since she already created the thread, providing her the link might be best. This way she might add it to her description, and then the two, or however many threads will be linked. Either way, your providing the link(s) already linked both topics.
@irmar, this is an honest question, not a criticism, or snarky comment. Why revive a topic that no one has replied to for 4 years instead of starting a new one? In some ways Viki encourages people to start new topics with their badges (Nice Topic, Good Topic, Great Topic.)
Why clutter Discussions with two different topics with the same content, where people will reply the same things? Itās redundant, itās needless. Whatās the point? Only to get a badge? Thatās sort of cheating.
If I were moderator here, I would merge these two topics. And many others. To keep it neat, and similar content conveniently grouped together.
I understand what youāre saying but after a year or more, itās so far down I donāt see how a new topic clutters the discussions. Iāve searched for topics before and found one that would fit my query, but seeing that no one had replied for years I was reticent to revive an old topic, and purposely didnāt start a new one in case someone called me out on it. So, I should revive those old topics when itās something I want to post about?
Viki staff has repeatedly told us to search whether a topic already exists before making a new one. But it also makes sense, because valuable answers by many people are to be found on old topics. So, why not?
Well, at times Viki staff even links similar topic threadsā¦ Iāve seen it quite oftenā¦ I think reviving old topics is okay, I get sometimes ālikesā on old answers or postsā¦
My first project as a part of a team was SPY, a Korean Drama with Kim Jae Joong, the singer.
I did use before the suggest box that no longer exists and subbed some missing subs in a short historical drama I canāt rememberā¦ as there was no teamā¦
I LOVED that drama so much. I watched it back in 2015. Iām guessing they re-did the whole drama again. I donāt get it bc back then, the subtitles were very good. I donāt understand whatās going on in here. Why are they resubbing some of the dramas although there was nothing wrong with them before; Do you know?
I canāt re- watch SPY now is āāout of my region.āā

I really donāt like when they link old topics because the information might be outdated. RViki has changed so much and personnel, members and such has changed, the way teams work also has changed, so going back to an old post makes absolutely no sense to me.
I was never informed about any subtitling changes. (reg. SPY)ā¦ so that would leave me in the loop, perhaps the German mod isnāt activeā¦
Unfortunately, nothing will remain the same, we are also aging, when I look in the mirror I see somehow someone else than I was used to see. - Evolution and progress is unstoppable check some futuristic YT videos how future may look like and it doesnāt look that farfetched.
We canāt expect that things stay at same level since there is a constant movement in the economy, demand and supply, population increase, trends, companies die and new ones grow. Think of how many small shops were taken over or closed, banks as well. For example one bank I am a customer of had about 6 hand changes
Some changes might fare better than othersā¦ Economy seeks constant changes, also so they can show they are doing something, which might not always really be better in real.
Like politicians and govs must show that they are doing somethingā¦ new laws, sometimes itās to prove that they are doing something beneficial for you āthe citizenā whether it is in the end so, often remains open.
