Well, we are in total agreement with you. It is unfair that someone is allowed the same access as those who are working hard to create, and prove themselves. We do have rules here, and it seems most members do not take the time to read them.
So, we are going to toughen up on offenders. Firstly, contributors will have to demonstrate their own work. It is not fair on the people sat at home for hours on end, creating covers, to be put into the same category as people who download others work. While we do appreciate you taking the time to upload covers that aren't yours, it isn't exactly that difficult. For example, Chefjoe who started this thread, is working very hard to create covers, but is in the contributor group. So, if people are categorised the same as him, that only upload others work, what is the point in him creating covers? He may as well just upload everyone else’s.
As for people who upload other creator’s work, without giving credit, this is going to be the process. First, you will receive a PM advising you to read the site rules. 2nd offense will result in an official warning. 3rd offense will result in another official warning, and warned next will be a ban. 4th offense will be a ban.
