Wh@t：上传规则的重大改变!

Revisions to the Uploading Rules

There are almost 1.4 million torrents at our users' fingertips. By continuously moderating torrents on the site, the staff strive to make our members' experiences more rewarding with the limited amounts of time that every user has. To make sure that you not only find exactly the music that you're searching for, but also find it in a very high-quality form (both in terms of audio quality and information content), we are announcing the first wholesale uploading rules revision in more than three years. The new rules have been incorporated into the existing Upload rules page. Since that last update, we've added new rules here and there in a piecemeal fashion as we tinkered with ways to ensure that our users got high-quality music that was fully tagged and informative. We may never evolve a suitable set of rules that makes everyone happy but we'll keep trying to make improvements as the years go by and our site continues to grow.

弹指间，我们目前已经收录了十几万会员的140余万个种子。在不断对种子进行信息编辑的同时，我们也致力于在用户有限的访问时间内尽可能地提升用户体验。为保证用户不仅找到自己所需的音乐，并且是高质量的音乐，同时拥有高信息密度，我们宣布三年来的第一次大规模规则重写。从上一次更新一来，我们零零散散的在这里那里加入了一部分规则，希望用户得到被正确标识了的、最高品质的音乐享受。我们也许永远不可能写出让所有人满意的规则，但这几年来我们一直在努力，得到的回报就是不断增长的用户群。

Every section of the uploading rules has been updated and revised. Site Wiki articles are referenced wherever we need to supply more information about a particular topic in the rules but just can't find the space to place it on the actual rules page. To improve the lines of communication between users and staff members, we have also updated the System-generated messages that users receive for reported torrents. These PMs that are sent out to users through our torrent reporting system will now all reference specific uploading rules, making the reasons for torrent removal more transparent. The rules are still not perfect but hopefully they will make staff responses to problematic torrents both more predictable and more comprehensible for our uploaders. This will result in fewer problematic uploads and, when bad torrents are inevitably found, allow staff members to deal with those reported torrents more efficiently.

站点规则的每一部分都已经被更新和修改。我们常需要参考网站的Wiki来提供更多在规则中特定的資訊，但暂时无法在实际规则页面中腾出有效空间。为提升用户和管理员的交互，我们也更新了用户收到种子被举报时的系统自动发送信件系统。现在收到这种信息的用户会收到详细的上传规则，使得种子删除理由更加透明（和准确）。规则仍未尽完美，但我们希望这样能让管理员们在遇到有问题的种子时能更准确地判断，同时上传者在收到管理信息时也能更好地理解规则。这样应该能减少问题上传，而当问题种子被发现的时候，管理组可以更有效的处理。

• HDCD rips are no longer allowed.
• FLAC log trumping has been clarified with respect to ripping software and log scoring.
• A recommended FLAC compression standard of Level 8 is now in effect.

• ebook packs are prohibited.
• ebook torrents are now trumpable, with retail versions of the ebook being preferred over scanned versions.

• Commercial album covers have always been exempt from our rules regarding nudity, so that has been made explicit in the rules.
  

You will undoubtedly have questions for us.  Please use the linked thread to point out and discuss any lingering issues with the new rules.  In that thread, you will also find our explanations for some of the larger changes to how we moderate uploaded content on the site.

也许你会有这样那样的问题。请进入下方的帖子链接向我们提出建议，或者与我们讨论你心中挥之不去的疑问。
在那个帖子里，你会看到我们对管理上传种子规则的一些大调整的解释。

Addendum 1: Please do not report any Ogg Vorbis or AAC torrents during the grace period.  Staff members will work on these torrents over the course of the next few months.

在此调整期间不要举报Ogg Vorbis或者AAC的种子。管理组会用几个月的时间来调整和处理。

Addendum 2: There is a two (2) month grace period for single file folder trumping. Please do not trump single file torrents with no folder until two months from this posting.

单文件夹的rip有2个月的trump宽限期。请不要在这2个月期间用无文件夹的rip来trump。 （这段翻译的可能不是很准确）

每個上傳規則細節已經更新編輯過。我們常需要參考Site Wiki articles 來提供更多有關在規則中特定文章的資訊，但就是無法在actual規則頁面中找出空間來放置。為了改善使用者與組員之間連繫的線路，我們也更新了由系統生成的訊息(使用者可從回報的種子中收到)。這些透過我們的種子回報系統發送給使用者的PM現在都會參考特定的上傳規則，好讓移動種子所造成的原因更清楚。這些規則仍不完美但希望可使組員在回達上傳者時能更預測與理解有問題的種子的原因。這將造成些許的上傳問題，但也讓組員在發現壞種時可以更有效率處理這些被回報的種子。

最喜欢看sherry的翻译
不生硬 很有爱
