Illusions, a question: "It is about a lack of understanding and little desire to attempt understanding." By whom? Are you refering to yourself. Let me put this another way...if this is about being fair then I would think that any reasonable person may say that being fair is reading the genuine attempts at explanations given and aknowledging them - even gilo25 aknowledged the point about not being able to cover every image/situation with a definitive "spelt out" TOS description. He then shifted tack to talk about the communications being sent out regarding images being removed perhaps being inadequate. This issue will be looked at, I am sure. The market place issues will be also be looked at I am sure. So where is the issue being misunderstood or no attempt being made to understand it? On which side of the coin? ~ perhaps there has been a bit of misunderstanding on both sides?...it can happen you know.
Where is being right more important than being fair? Once again are you refering to yourself? No, really...I could quite easily look at these (your) statements and think they were just as applicable to you, gilo25 and all the others who would criticise...you seem so determined and indignant in your "rightness" you may be blinded to your own behaviours. IMHO, if this is about being fair then I would also think that any reasonable person may say that being fair is not publicly accusing people of lying with no factual basis. Being fair is not being hypocritical and expecting standards to be applied to one group of people, such as mods and admin and completely failing to follow such expected standards in kind or expecting them to be followed by other members who happen to agree with your point of view. Being fair is actually acknowledging all the polite and sincere responses to address this issue.
