The new TF marketplace

That's the single most obnoxious sentiment I've seen on this subject. I really hope you're not serious about wanting to screen only folks who meet your definition of "worthiness". Wow, Artashes, your new staff really have their heads screwed on!

Thanks for your input. Though may I recommend instead of bashing thoughts and suggestions in a bigheaded manner, maybe supply something worthy towards the thread?

In my view It's impossible to select a few people to judge what's worth to be placed in our marketplace, as many have said no one here is to judge what is actual 'quality' because it's all based on opinion.

I don't buy that argument. Judging whether or not a design is rubbish is 9 times 10 common sense, and just because it's not liked doesn't mean it wouldn't pass criteria.

It would be very unprofessional to judge designs to be chosen, even if you picked a group of people who were qualified who's right is it to say something is good and something isn't, it would offend more people than do good.

Why would it be unprofessional? It probably would offend a minority, but that minority is nothing compared to those who actively seek good quailty.

You have a fair point and I agree. Then really to prevent low-quality designs and etc is very hard to do. As pointed out on the other page a post limit will only lead to spamming. Maybe set a longer wait period to start selling? I think Digital point's rule is 14 days.. but they aren't exactly famous for their quality.

I've always seen waiting periods as an inadequate way of preventing spam. It's basically putting the prevention of spam before usability and users.

No, you may not. I don't often take the time to go out of my way to post "in a bigheaded manner", so when I do it means my usual calm, sedate, thoughtful and considered state has been superseded, temporarily, by some other strong conviction. Please, take the opportunity to note that my contribution was a very, very strong message: that of my immediate revulsion the idea that you put forth. If that's not contributing to the thread, I don't know what is.

I'm not posting, giving my own thoughts and ideas, because quite frankly I want to see what the community thinks (and the sideshow from the staff is an intriguing little distraction). That, and to be quite honest, I am fairly content not being a decision maker. Being a plebian is affording me insight into the community which just was not possible previously.

Anyway, that's enough off-topic. Thanks for your input. Though may I recommend instead of bashing my thoughts and suggestions in a bigheaded manner, maybe... just, don't? Merci.
