There has been many a quarrel about the so-called Hot 20 here that it has been recognized as one, together with politics and religion to be an explosive issue. In the end, most of us have come to the conclusion that the only way to change things there is for everyone of us to survey all the gallery entries on a daily bases and vote on the images you deem truly artistic enough to qualify in the Hot 20 forum. It then becomes a race in popularity and membership cloners (collectively known here as the Rainbow people). We further recognize that unless the art is directly against the TOS, to impose limitations is tantamount to censorship. Instead of paying heed to this infuriating farce, most here plainly see that it holds no merit or redeeming value for those people. We tend to recognize art when we see it and pay homage to it, and try hard to stay away from the Hot 20 topic.
