Less rude admins Options

[kipani1984]

You guys can get less rude layout accepters who reply to PMs within a month of accepting them. I submitted a layout and it didn't get approved, so I PMed the guy who unapproved it. No reply, After like a month. Some asian kid.

http://elusivemoon.com/cms/preview/fairyland.html

I think the layouts adorable :\ You guys? Honestlyyyyyy, I can always use critique anyway.

[technicolour]

The link doesn't work...

[freeflow]

Sorry about that. You should of recieved a letter for the reason why it wasn't accepted. Can you tell me the name of the layout (since I can see your rejected layouts) and I can if you want , well after I see it, see if there is any reason why it should be rejected and then tell you them. If it ok then I'll tell you to just resubmit and it will be fine.

Sorry about that. In the future, this shouldn't happen, if it does feel free to PM anyone on design/head staff and maybe an admin and I'm pretty sure they'll be happy to give you the feedback you need.

[xKatt]

Aww it is cute. Maybe it wasn't accepted because the link to your website is everywhere. That layout almost looks like it was created for the sole purpose of advertising the website.

I don't think it's acceptable that your PM be ignored like that though. But just because one person is rude doesn't mean all the admin is rude.

No reply, After like a month. Some asian kid.

what does being asian have to do with anything? bigot comments like that really dont do you any good.

anyway, i apologize if it was me you were refering you (is it?). i have a tendency of being late in my replies. i did check my inbox though and didnt find anything from you.

[micron]

well regardless i think it was the right decision. theres just too many buttons and link backs, especially for a myspace standard layout.

[*SayBloodyMary*]

I think she was just using 'asian' to identify him. There is no reason to throw the word 'bigot' around. Especially given that you meant 'bigotted.'

[micron]

^ oh if thats the case i apologize. i dont see why the original poster cant simply point him out.

[micron]

oh and thank you for your english lessions.

[*Mercy*]

oh and thank you for your english lessions.

Its ok,We all make grammar errors a couple of times in our lives..We are only human lol

[*steve330*]

Jack White's sister is a robot, he said so.

[*tripvertigo*]

who cares? just because they didnt respond to your pm doesnt make them rude. it makes them busy. this site has gone through a complete overhaul in the last two months. i dont think the mods and admins can be judged on their timeliness.

that layout sucks anyway. i couldve put that together in 5 minutes with one hand tied behind my back and no mouse

[PINKLollyPOP]

about 2 weeks ago i had some girl reject over 20 graphics on mine. (i got it taken care of)... but she didn't give a reason on most of them... and on the ones she did give a reason it was the same reason just copied and pasted. it's really stupid.

so i was instructed to re-submit them and most got accepted. and the ones that didn't, i got a REAL reason why.

that one girl should be demoted. (in my opinion)

[clarity]

I used to be on MySpace staff, and personally I would not have approved that layout. It's pretty horrible in graphic quality in my opinion.

[*tripvertigo*]

Some mods have different standards than others. Maybe you should just calm down. I dont think it's required of the mods to PM you for EVERY layout that they reject from one person, especially if it's 20 at a time.

I dont think they are required to be entirely specific on what their reasons are either. I think its more of a general sense of what you may have done wrong. They shouldnt have to hold your hand.

[PINKLollyPOP]

actually... it IS required that they tell you why...

so that you can improve.

[*tripvertigo*]

actually... it IS required that they tell you why...

so that you can improve.

Not for every single one out of 20 layouts that they rejected at the same time.

One general answer is fine, in my opinion. Because if they rejected 20 of them at once, from the same person, it is probably all for the same general reason.

[*steve330*]

But they should be able to tell you in batch. They shouldn't have to derive an individual reason for each one if they all have the same issues.

[*tripvertigo*]

I have an answer for the both of you, actually. It doesnt take a mod to tell.

your submissions were rejected because they seem like the handywork of a 6 year old child with a set of crayons and a blank wall.

[now THAT'S rude.]

[PINKLollyPOP]

^ yeah i agree. if its the same problem. but it wasn't. so yeah, you know. :)

And this may seem like I'm going all power trippy, but demotion? While I understand that you may feel jipped from not getting twenty individual responses, the queue is huge, in order for efficiency, sometimes the mods can't explain every little detail.

[PINKLollyPOP]

well it already got taken care of and they did get added.

so oh well.

[clarity]

[now THAT'S rude.]

dude, your awesome.

Anyways, it's NOT actually required. For ever f**king 20 layout? Psht, you have got to be kidding me. That's alot of my time that i would not want to spend on somebody.

[*SinfullySweet*]

And this may seem like I'm going all power trippy, but demotion? While I understand that you may feel jipped from not getting twenty individual responses, the queue is huge, in order for efficiency, sometimes the mods can't explain every little detail.

Exactly. If you look right now, there are 76 graphics in the que. A mod really cant spend all their time giving you a specific reason to for every graphic that was rejected.

[PINKLollyPOP]

people get drawn to cB initatially because of layouts and graphics. if you don't have a variety people will stop coming.

so the people who do layouts and graphics should get some credit and respect. otherwise people will stop sending in and cB will eventually come to a hault.

you need to show some respect to the people who spend a lot of their time doing things to HELP OUT CB.

I'm serious. Don't be talking about "wasting your time on one person"... because a lot of people on here use up there time to contribute to cB.

Be Nice! Gezzz

[*steve330*]

Yeah but accepting shitty graphics does no service to cB, and I don't think that the way things have been going are going to bring a halt to cB...

And I came to cB with no artistic ability, and I still have none. I came for the community forums.

[PINKLollyPOP]

i don't think they come to get skill for artistic ability (well some do) but i think a lot of people come here to get layouts for their sites.

and i don't think shitty graphics should be accepted either. that was not what i was saying.

[*steve330*]

Nor was it what I was saying

[PINKLollyPOP]

i was simply agreeing with you. i don't think they should accept shitty graphics. you don't. we are in agreement. a mutual agreement.!!!!

[*steve330*]

I was simply saying that you misinterpreted me if you thought I had said that people come here for artistic stuff.

Agreement is fine though :) hasta luego

[clarity]

I swear theres been topic on this 'no reply' business.

[*tripvertigo*]

i was simply agreeing with you. i don't think they should accept shitty graphics. you don't. we are in agreement. a mutual agreement.!!!!

that's funny because yours were accepted and i'd categorize them as Shitty.

cB isn't going to fizzle out because some mods with high standards and no time to coddle you cant afford to waste the time to go through all 20 of your shitty submissions and tell you exactly what's wrong with each and every one of them. there are plenty of other Good contributors.

if you don't like it, then don't submit them. the world will be better for not having to look at your crappy excuse for a design and the mods will save a lot of time not having to reject them and PM you.

Or if it means that much for you, i would LOVE to sit down and examine all your submissions from top to bottom, and tell you why you should just quit your grade school attempt at designing.

Believe me. I would savor the feeling of ripping your work to shreds.

Then again, I'm not a mod. But I used to be... does that count?

[*shotgunFUNERAL*]

Then again, I'm not a mod. But I used to be... does that count?

no, because you're a bitch. it was so much nicer around here without you actually being here. they are simply asking what is going on, rather than asking the almighty god of everything why it wasn't accepted. all you do is bitch and moan about how much someone works sucks, but if someone did the same to you, you'd flip the fuck out. diss whatever work i have all you want, but if we spent half as much time as you and had half as much experience as you, perhaps we could meet your expectations. until then, get the fuck over it.

[*tripvertigo*]

yknow i pretty much know im a bitch. it says so in my signature =)

if someone did the same to you, you'd flip the f**k out

well on occasion that has happened, and i take it and use it as a reason to get better. if i think that person has the experience to criticize me.

diss whatever work i have all you want, but if we spent half as much time as you and had half as much experience as you, perhaps we could meet your expectations

probably not.

until then, get the f**k over it.

get over what? do i seem offended by this persons crappy work? i dont think so. i'm amused she had the audacity to bitch about her submissions being rejected and saying that whoever rejected them should be demoted, when if you actually look at the work, it's like i could have crapped something prettier in the toilet.

[*karmakiller*]

Something that should be taken into consideration is that mods get a lot of PMs, but that shouldn't be an excuse for not getting back to you. If you've waited a month, why haven't you PMed that person? There's other Design Staff/Head Staff/Admins that you could've PMed if the person who rejected the layout didn't reply to your PMs.

[demolished]

no, because you're a bitch. it was so much nicer around here without you actually being here. they are simply asking what is going on, rather than asking the almighty god of everything why it wasn't accepted. all you do is bitch and moan about how much someone works sucks, but if someone did the same to you, you'd flip the f**k out. diss whatever work i have all you want, but if we spent half as much time as you and had half as much experience as you, perhaps we could meet your expectations. until then, get the f**k over it.

Actually, her bitchyness serves purposes. It's something we can all learn from. It's a cc and encouragement to create better graphics... then get bitched. Keep trying.

Practice makes perfect.

Trish created many strong posts and a valid point. Her individuality is unique in a way.

There are two type of so-called "bitch". One is mature and one isnt.

Sorry, if you don’t agreed with me. That's how i become better. Strong words get stuck in your minds, wake you up, and really slap you hard.

[*tripvertigo*]

yes. power.

[brooklyneast05]

yea
i find that women being bitchy is an extremely unique quality

**edit***
does that make sense?
no not really it sounds backwards

i find that bitchiness in women is an extremely unique quality


thats better

[*tripvertigo*]

look, brooklyneast05. you simply dont know what it feels like to have female reproductive organs, okay? so dont eff with me, i'm menstruating.

</joke> </offtopic>

[demolished]

^
Depends what type of bitches you're talking.

;D

LOL. this is so weird. "bitch"

[brooklyneast05]

yes ma'am!

[*tripvertigo*]

Disney sets up impressionable children for a world of failure SPAM SPAM SPAM SPAM.

sorry, i'll be good now.

[demolished]

Haha. Honestly, i don’t like her Disney layout... and the whole dotted border. Not a fan of her work.

[*shotgunFUNERAL*]

good for her valid points, but her bitchy way of stating it is not welcomed. you can make a valid argument, but you don't have to pretend like you're so above someone because they don't have the experience you have.

[*tripvertigo*]

not welcomed by you? Sorry, I didnt realize you were the cB gatekeeper.

[*shotgunFUNERAL*]

i didn't realize you were the god of graphics and kept everyone in check.

[*tripvertigo*]

i didn't realize you were the god of graphics and kept everyone in check.

Who says I'm not?

[*shotgunFUNERAL*]

wait, am i talking to trish or lena?

[*tripvertigo*]

that joke's old. get some new material, or just stop trying all together =)

[*shotgunFUNERAL*]

so, it was a joke all along.

[demolished]

She's not pretending to be above. She made a point and ... is better than her. Dont you agreed with me? Whos work is better?

Her "bitchyness" can be taken as consideration from anyone. You have a choice whether you stick with it or not. Again, her bitchyness serves many purposes, is strong, mature, and etc. (I don’t want to repeat this, sorry)

[PINKLollyPOP]

that's funny because yours were accepted and i'd categorize them as Shitty.

I'm sorry that you feel that way but if you would like to look at how many of my graphics have several favorites, you would see that many people do appreciate my work.

Or if it means that much for you, i would LOVE to sit down and examine all your submissions from top to bottom, and tell you why you should just quit your grade school attempt at designing.

Believe me. I would savor the feeling of ripping your work to shreds.

Then again, I'm not a mod. But I used to be... does that count?

i actually would LOVE for you to take every one of my graphics and examine them.

as for my layouts, I am new to that, and I know that i need some improving.

i agree, you are probably not a mod anymore because it seems to me like all you do is want to bitch bitch bitch... and it's really sad that you have to put someone down to cover up your own insecurities.

[*Elba*]

Spencer you are horrible.

thats right, cuz you HAVENT been doing anything but bitch in this thread.

honey i've looked at your "Graphics"

they're all avatars.

QUICK. EVERYONE. HOW HARD IS IT TO COPY AND PASTE A 100x100 PIXEL SAMPLE OF A PICTURE I DIDNT ACTUALLY COMPOSE MYSELF AND THEN ADD SOME IDIOTIC TEXT PHRASE THAT I THINK HAS SOME PROFOUND MEANING?

[*tripvertigo*]

so, it was a joke all along.

yeah it was a total joke how something really bad happened to her and Joemar came to support me when it happened, where he met my boyfriend (Also named Joe) who has MET my sister on numerous occasion and they both were talking about her and the situation at hand.
you can ask joemar himself if you like. masterxkid.


it was totally funny how i pointed out that we both posted on our birthdays two years ago from two completely different counties in massachusetts within a 5 minute timeframe while i was at school and she was at home, but none of the moderators werent astute enough to go dig up that proof to put a stop to all the bullshit and make everyone shut up about it.


eitherway, that rumormill fizzled out a year and a half ago, sweet heart. it just shows how you cant defend yourself anymore in this thread, so you have to go digging up totally untrue and irrelevent rumors made by a bunch of 14 year olds with nothing to do with their time but think about what next big controversial cB thing they can make up about people because their own sad pathetic lives are just that uneventful.

Darling, I have looked at your ONE graphic. and all you did was some simple blending. oh WOW. I am impressed, let me tell you *sarcasm*

I suggest that you stop ragging on everyone else to make yourself look better because honestly, it's only making you look like an idiot. I also noticed you didn't have anything to say about "covering up your insecurities".... could that be because i am right? OH MY. Amber is right? I think so!

I have looked at your profile... and you know, I'm not sure what kind of "background" you have as far a designing... and maybe you could do better graphics... from the graphic I saw, it wasn't too impressive... However, I will give you the benifit of the doubt. If you would like me to crticize you on the things I know a lot about, I could definitely do the same right back to you... Starting with your pictures of yourself. I could let you in on some fashion secrets. And that's obviously something you need a little help on!

Anyways, Thanks and Have a Wonderful Day Daaling!

[lovescream]

ummmmmmm. ^
okay, honestly.. i'm just like jumping in this thread here outta freaking nowhere. this really thread full of.. you know, argument shit. probably gonna get myself e-jumped or something,
hahaha, but you know, have you even actually SEEEEEEEEEEEEN her (tripvertigo's) vectors?
have you even tried vectoring yourself?
i'm pretty sure that's like 10x more effort put into it than 100x100 images with horrible fonts on'em.
honestly though, you could even pick better font choices for your avatars. and/or some better colouring on them.
i'm pretty sure she's more talented than half the graphic designers on this site, though i'm only speaking for my own opinion on that. i dont even know wtf this has to do with the topic, butttttt.. yeah.

[*superstitious*]

^^
Ok, first off, while I don't know tripvertigo very well, I've seen a number of things she's done. Look at her website and through her portfolio (I think it's on her site, it's been a while since I saw it), if you aren't impressed now, you will be then (although I suspect she won't care either way).

Having said that, arguing back and forth about this really isn't going to solve much. The original intent of the OP was to convey his frustration(s) regarding the lack of feedback from someone who had rejected a submission of his/hers.

Honestly, I would have rejected this particular submission myself. I do try, however, to at least provide a little feedback as to why it was rejected. This is strongly encouraged for anyone going through the queue. It doesn't have to be an essay or tutorial detailing how to make your submission acceptable. You have to take responsiblity for yourself and your work. If something gets rejected, learn from it. Look at the Graphic Submissions Requirements & Moderators Guide for Submitting Graphics thread. It was posted for a reason. READ through it and learn. If you have further questions, PM a someone in a graphic-related staff position and ask if they can help you out. I'm willing to bet that they would if asked.

[*steve330*]

^x2 It has to do with her credibility and ability which gives her the right to judge and pass judgment relating to the denial of the graphics because she thought the quality of them sucked :) See, it has it's relevance haha

[PINKLollyPOP]

this is why a lot of people leave cB ... right here.... THIS IS A GREAT EXAMPLE.

don't be such a bitch.

i simple got on here telling something that had happen similar to what this thread started from and got "e-jumped" (if that's what you want to call it)...

this is ridiculous!

[*ersatz*]

When you post something like your initial post in this thread, you cannot expect to not get a response. Your post sounded like you thought that every graphic should be accepted for the sake of "variety" and so all the designers can get "credit". To most people here, mainly the more experienced designers and users, this seems like a very outrageous claim, so they would be inclined to attempt to change that opinion of yours. I don't think anyone was set out to "e-jump" you...they were just responding to what was going on. These people weren't trying to be mean just to make you mad for no reason.

[lovescream]

i feel like you're all making fun of my word. e-jumped. hahaha.

[PINKLollyPOP]

i feel like you're all making fun of my word. e-jumped. hahaha.

if it were so irrelevant, why did you let it get to you so badly and leave?

edit://
and now, for amber's response:

maybe you didnt look at my profile hard enough because there are at least 6 examples of my work on the left side column. just because i have no contributions on cB that I haven't actually taken down already (except for that one blend i recently submitted), doesnt mean i have never contributed anything, you silly bint.

my background in graphics?

you mean, the fact that i'm working professionally and probably make more money than your mom does?

[*tripvertigo*]

sorry i didnt read the pm till after i posted just now =P

I saw this layout, it's ok. To be honest I wouldn't accepted it myself. Sorry, but as a web designer myself I understand where you coming from.
