So What Does *Quality Do, exactly?
I know there's a bunch of threads about various topics regarding the 4.0 upgrade, but wanted to address the new *quality invocation for submitted videos.
What does it do, exactly? Why should I *quality a vid, rather than promoting it? Both cost a power point to use, so why choose one over the other?
We know that *promoting bumps a vid to the top of the listing page, where it stays for 2 hours (?) or so. More users will see that prominently placed video; it earns more votes and the invocation serves its purpose.
But what does the *quality invocation on a video do?
For example - I invoked *quality on this gem:
http://www.videosift.com/video/Augustus-Pablo-Java
SiftBot told me that (s)he would "Boost this quality contribution up in the Hot Listing". What is the 'hot listing', and where's this boost?
The video remains 3/4 of the way down the 1st page of the Unsifted section, does not appear on either the 'Recent Sifts' or 'Top Sifts' page.
So....what am I spending my power point for?
