General Discussion

a submission got flagged and no one tells me why.

So I made this submission:

http://opengameart.org/content/rpg-tilesets-pack

And one of the mods flagged it without telling me anything or even contacting me.

If you see in the comments someone suggested that it might be due to the preview pic (the previous one you won't see it now), which contains unoriginal material. But that picture was used for the preview only and was not in the package itself. and anyway I replaced it since.

I tried to contact OGA via the contact form (http://opengameart.org/contact) and I'm still getting nothing.

I think its really uncool the way I was flagged without any chance to explain or without getting any reason. maybe there's some legit reason I don't understand, but at least tell me why?

Since I got ignored for couple of days I decided to try my luck here in the forum.

Anyone willing to tell me why it was flagged? and if it was because of the preview picture - can I get unflagged?

 

Thanks! :)

Just want to say I support TheNess 100% on this one.

It's really uncool that this submission was flagged without any comment.

If there's a problem with it that's fine but at least let the submitter know what the issue is.

 

@TheNess:  all I can say is this isn't the way things normally work around here. :(

Don't know if it was related to this post or not but the flagging was just removed.

Thank you capbros for the support and tips :)

A suggestion to just not to use unoriginal material in the preview, because even those can be downloaded and cut up for those assets. Other than that I support you and think your package should be kept.
