You can just have 3 pics, 3 pics, 3 pics, ad, 3 pics, 3 pics
OR
3 pics, 3 pics, ad, 3 pics, 3 pics, 3 pics

It's not gonna cut it

GG - thanks again for the reply. I have to go help my kid with her homework, so I gotta go, but... I do see your points, and I think I was overintellectualizing what my real point of contention is. I didn't actually see it till I re-read my last post.

I can understand someone not listing my site because they think it's too much like others, and I need to be more original. But not only banning me from submitting permanently, but also removing years worth of submitted sites that HAD been priorly accepted? That seems pretty steep on the penalty side. I mean - those sites were accepted before, they were never changed, and now they are GONE?

I don't think that the 'penalty fits the crime' there. I'm basically treated the same as a cheating webmaster who went back and 404 redirected all of his sites to pop up hells. That just ain't right. There should be some point of differentiation. Hell - I'd even swallow being banned till I got my act together - but retroactively removing every site that was ever accepted seems unjust.

This happened to us, and I found out about it when investigating why our signups suddenly cut in half. Months and months of submissions the reviewers had no problem with and had accepted were gone. That's not a good system, IMO.

Again, my intent is not hostility. It's concern, and this remains one of the few truly biz oriented boards out there, so it seemed relevant to me. Thanks again for the time and replies.
