You call this entertainment?? Artists are leaving by this humiliating list and it's not fun, but annoying. This will be the second time I have posted this comment regarding this issue, and I'm sure on it's on the way to lockdown soon. Two things need to happen here regarding the Hot20; Reform or Remove. I will elaborate.

Reform

Limit artists' images to one per the 7 day period, this will open up alot more slots for others that don't normally make it there since 3 artists are taking up 12 slots. Wanna flood the Hot20 with daily images, too bad. One image, one artist, one week...simple. Two lines of code, DONE. This should open up at least 8-10 slots per week for people who don't normally make it there. Make sense? Good. Also, include an option on the upload screen to not include the vote button for those who don't wish to be part of the game. Are you with me? Ok, good.

Even better option!

Remove

Get rid of the Hot20 completely as it alienates so many people, causes hate threads, anger, and self doubt to so many. It's an insult to many people, and frankly, it's a joke. I love all of the people on the Hot20, and honestly most are good friends, but I also have many more friends who feel like they will never be recognized and they are getting sadly discouraged. This is a healthy creative inspiration that should be entertaining? LOL! When we post images, why not just rate each one from 1-10 and completely humiliate us!

To Admin - The pleas have been uttered, the requests have been asked, please don something about it before more people leave. It's your store, not ours.

To Dudley - You are my rock star, my Moses in a downpour of locusts, my inspiration and my friend. Please come back so I can make art again! I'm too sad and upset to create anything! =(

The ignorance knows no bounds,

-David-
