Permanent bans aren't necessary. Preferably would make it 24-48 hours of restriction on uploads. If the file is being uploaded repeatedly, openly explain why it's being denied and a solution to fix it. You can't just simply resort to never giving the player the option to upload a customized (head, body, sword, or shield).

I've never been a gp on upload duty, but I think it's common sense that you aren't the only person trying to upload a file. They probably want to accept as many uploads as possible, so people can get their customs fast. I don't think they have to explain every little detail as to why a yoshi head can't be uploaded. If it's not that, then they usually tell you why. "File size is too big/small", "Transparency issues"... Most people don't know how to fix their "solid black/white" issue. Maybe staff should just make a guide relating to the reasons why they don't accept a file. |

The issue is you have zero instruction as to what is wrong with the graphic and/or how to fix it from a human being - instead just a stock message (sometimes incorrectly applied) that often suggests not re-submitting your work. AND BTW... how is intellectual property of a 3d character a copyright infringement issue when you draw a graphic character in a 2d, pixelated format that sort of resembles the original and then present it in a free-to-play environment with no intention of marketing or making money on the 2d sprite? |

No, it is that hard, because admins themselves have contradicted this rule: "Any concepts that are taken from television shows, video games or any other forms of media will not be accepted. " by adding inspired content on a number of occasions. Players really shouldn't be blamed or banned when they try to do the same. Obviously taking things pixel for pixel is a problem, but when it's created from scratch and only bares resemblance I don't see the argument |

I'm just wondering why the admins don't know how to resolve this issue because every single one I talked to doesn't have a clue. Why would you have a ban button that you could never turn off? Unlike the controversy Ivy is facing, I can say with confidence that the shield I uploaded wasn't copyright and didn't have any coloring issues because I've been uploading since I first started the game. I attempted to upload it only three times with time in between uploading, I wasn't spamming the system. |
