Here's the thing .. we can argue/discuss the TOS till the cows come home .. but its not going to change a thing. There SHOULD have been a massive poll ... but if there was even a small one - I wasn't counted. But thats over an done with .. and its unlikely that it'll ever change. In fact - there is a higher probability of things getting worse then there is of things getting better.
Obviously - the PTB have more pull then the members that make up the site. Whatever .. if I don't like it - or it gets too much to bear - I can always retreat to the comforts of my OWN site. (Heck - thats were 98% of my art gets posted anyways).
There are two major things that upset me about this place:
1.) We lose great contributers to the community for valid reasons and few people give a rats butt. Not the PTB an not the members - they all take the side thats profitable an popular.
AND the biggest reason - well it involes 2 factors that will get me banned quick, fast and in a stinking hurry.
A few years back - someone had a great idea .. and they started off on the right foot. However somewhere along the lines .. the mission statement went out the window ... and everything got too complicated (money has a tendancy to complicate things).
I feel bad that with every silly rule change .. we lose assets to the community. Guess I'm the only one that cares. Obviously the owner doesn't.
Just enjoying the Vue.
