More important, has anyone asked if he is the tit or the deejay

If there are problems whit low quality and stretching the covers to fit, why were the covers accepted in the first place, and if all the faulty covers are removed does he still have the required amount in the gallery?

I think with the current stalemate vote, and no argument to show he is currently not conforming to site rules, it would be unfair to not grant access.

What this conversation has shown though, is we really need to update the contributor rules.

:agree:

Very interesting conversation here. I don't know if he scanned them or not but Bunny Dojo has some good points. From my angle I see black text that's not black and whites that should be whiter. Some contrast would help along with the dodge and burn tools. Some sharpening would also be nice, I hate fuzzy edged text.

Voted no.

Following Curt's post it's obvious where this is going to end.
And I really agree with his arguments. He made a very good point in my opinion!

Interesting and informative comments gents

I don't disagree that under the current guidelines he is eligible.

I also don't think showing up and adding a few (minimal effort) items to get approved then being setup as a unlimited downloader for months before getting downgraded if they never post again, helps the site much.

The contributor code as it is is fine, IF we only allow in those that seem to be in the right mode to begin with, therefore there needs to be more ways to disqualify undesirables, ie that the prerequisites for being considered for contributor status need to be more restrictive and defined better.

Not to say you can't leave latitude for doing it how everyone feels is in the best interest of the site, just that there needs to be some room to deny based on additional points "other" than having not added that minimum number to the gallery, that's just too easy and open for exploitation in my opinion.

Maybe we should consider amending the rules for new contributors? I.e they must contribute more regularly for the first few months, to prove that they will be good contributors to the site. I wonder if the contributor code could be amended to reflect this?

The rules state that he is eligible for promotion. And if there is no hard evidence that he hasn't done the 'work' himself, I cannot see any reason to not promote him.

FYI, he uses a few different names on different sites, my opinion is he will not contribute beyond the bare minimum needed to gain download access, that has been his MO for years now.

On one site he has contributed less than 17 "scans" and has downloaded near 400 covers, so you see the plan will be the same here.

He is not scanning them, he like many are grabbing the large front and back digital images off blu-ray.com or other sites like them and using those to piece together covers that look like scans, in many cases they are pretty good actually but the sizes vary which is why some look blurry, they have been sized up due them being a little too small...

On his favorite site where he uploads the most, he has a total of 27 of these uploaded in the last 3 years and one forum post, so I'd not expect much from him beyond a lot of downloading once he is approved.

Personally if the rules were not what they are I'd vote no but since that would be unfair based on the guidelines, I'll just abstain from voting at all.

:D
