i dont see how so many garbage pics get allowed... let them all sit in the queue and raise to required # of quality submissions before allowing them to post freely... too many people are points farming again 

That's not a problem with crowdsourcing, that's a problem with some members ignoring the rules for image submissions. And while some good enough photos can sneak through, we keep getting some truly awful images that make you wonder what folks are thinking, like leaving cards in one-touches and photographing them at odd angles, photos of cards near piles of other cards in the background, photos that look like they were taken about 20 feet away, and members actually holding the cards in their hands.

It used to be easier to deal with as we could tag the worst images and they wouldn't get added, but now I believe watermarked images are the only ones that get reviewed by Admin (along with scans of the wrong card, for which we have to provide a link to the correct location). Everything else gets added but tagged for replacement, meaning more and more ridiculously bad images remain for all to see. That's apparently Admin's preference and I'm respecting his rules.

But since most members seem to be able to follow the rules, it's not simply a crowdsourcing issue.

REALLY!!!!!!!!! How does anybody think this is how it works?

I have sent it through the IR system again to have it removed....hopefully ADMIN follows through

EDIT: I giant thank you to CAD (CollectingAfterDeath) who saw this and was able to replace the image.

I'm surprised a level 0 has direct ability to add a scan rather than any new scan to be attached to an IR. So that people who check IRs have to approve the image before the image shows up on the site.

Anything that gets rejected from crop queue still gets submitted. That changed a while ago
