Siftbot is a cruel bastard
Why is siftbot still emailing me to tell me that my video is about to expire? To rub it in? There's nothing I can do without the ability to requeue, so I really don't need siftbot reminding me of my failures via email. Can I turn this off?

Agreed it's kinda annoying since there isn't anything to do about it anymore.
Yeah, it's become an unnecessary feature.
hes harsh. harsh and unfair.
SiftBot just wants to remind you that you're a loser. Once your video expires SiftBot now sends an email with the GIF of that fat lady farting in the pool. True story.
Fixed.
I liked the feature, even when *requeue disappeared, so I could shake my fist at my computer screen when I got the e-mail.
Thanks, Lucky.
I thought siftbot was a Qruel bastard too
Human tears are essential for his circuitry.
instead of requeueing can on re submit?
Yep, it was annoying. However, it was nice to know that my videos were expiring.

No, because videos in your personal queue are still active, so if you resubmit the same video, it is a dupe and will be discarded.
Can't we ban siftbot for spamming not only the comments, with useless notifications of invocations, but also our inboxes with reminders of our own failure?

Same here.

But in theory someone could *-kill a vid and resubmit, say, if it only got 1 vote, eh?
