I find it highly annoying what is going on in the screenshot section. >

I understand why you were discussing this, but he was not the only one that submitted more than one a day. I just felt it was handled poorly. This site is supposed to be a group of Professionals. There were better ways of doing this other than the comments i've seen ..." Super " I'm not one to mince words and goof on people. I am direct. Do I think Butch exceded the reasonable limit , yes I do. But, thats why you need guidelines. This looked like a lynch mob . You badgered him until he finally gave up. Im sure your all proud of yourselves now. And...if I do upload a screen shot, and it" may or may not be approved " , well.....who gives a rats @#$ , would only make you look like a spoiled child at this point.

oh, and sleeping dragon...my comments are sincere..i can find something nice in everones work. The only reason i made the comment was when I saw someone write " Let's make SS's works in progress". Hence my comment about all Kings and no Citizens.

Hey, we could always sell server space and bandwidth to people, then uploading 100 of them in a week would be totally agreeable, no?

Or...you could just set guidelines rather than pouncing on one person like hungry Dingo's...Gee, guess I wont be in the " screen Shot " of the day again. But, at least I won't be kissing anyone's , well , yanno.

If being reasonable means arse kissing, then I'm one of the world's finest and most consistent buttox-smoochers.

~Spider..your missing my point entirely. Some people do not mean any harm in what they are doing. Thats why you need guidelines. But to ridicule one person until they leave is unfair.
Its seems ok for you all to be sarcastic , but when others are...they are told " well , I may or may not approve your screenshot " that , in my opinion is childish...

You're entitled to that. Maybe a well-worded e-mail to Jafo is the appropriate action, then? I see no good in continuing this thread, really. The only thing worse than name calling is doing so publicly, ie: on a public message board. Just e-mail him and be done with it.

...besides, I'm willing to bet Jafo meant that comment more tongue-in-cheek than actually threatening you. It did seem, to me, an "absurd" response to an absurd statement.

I agree....and this whole thread could have been avoided if that person was emailed instead.

.. No point in me continuing. I'll see if I can get this thread locked, instead.

This thread was to sound the waters of opinion as to what would be deemed appropriate.

No-one was singled out as the situation described fits several people equally.

It's clear that few if any appreciate excesses of screenshot uploads so we can see about convincing others to be more moderate/considerate.

Things went pear-shaped here approx 20 comment s ago, so consider it closed.
