I know you have as little time to do this as form users (less than some, as some scripts will automatically send an acceptance mail at a click), but saying "you must...but I wont" comes over as "fuck you" when you read it.

I do send rejection e-mails, and if there is a comment or a question in the submission e-mail I answer it. I found that if I had nothing to say and the site was accepted from a regular submitter, that all I was doing was sending a sort of 6 or 7 word form letter and filling everyone's inbox with junk. So far everyone has said they were cool with that. I think I'll change it so that if you want an acceptance email I'll send one. I certainly didn't mean it to come across as a "fuck you".
