Are they going to remoderate everything that didn't make it to the main gallery...this seems like it may create a bigger problem. Now, if somebody's stuff doesn't make the cut, they can whine and complain about it needing to be remoderated. A precedent has been set.
No, it's not so black and white.
Let me ask this- should the moderators never listen to a complaint? Are complaints never founded? What type of place is this if we never take a step back and look at what happened and change the outcome if we made a mistake?
To me, I rather be balanced. I rather say:"Yep, that can be changed" sometimes to balance out the "Nope, that stays where it is." Otherwise, all we are doing is saying that we never look at anything with a fresh perspective.
yes, the precedent that if you whine hard enough and you're a 'respected' member you'll get your way
And, what does that have to do with this? If anything, you just disproved your own point. The person that this thread is about has only been here 2 months. So, how does that pertain to your statement? How did he become a "respected" after 2 months? He's a new user. New users make mistakes.
Either scrap the library alltogther or have stronger moderation , period. And it's the same for all, no matter what your bloody rank is on here.
Are you saying that we play favorites? I guess I'm not getting what you are saying here.
