i think it allows people to be biased against certain people they dont want reviewing their stuff, Or biased that they want a certain person reviewing it. They should be able to ask but it should be a courtesy not an enforced rule.
This is the main reason why I don't think a submitter should be able to wave who they get; the NTSE mods are the ones who should be having to step out. Submitters are and should be willing to work with people that they don't agree with. And trust me; I would know because I have submitted to the NTSE and still been civil despite in the past being very discontent with how things were handled.Let's face it, there are some folks I don't want reviewing my stuff. I get incensed around certain folks. I don't believe it's necessary for us to ever request a new reviewer. However, reviewers should have the option to "tag out" and leave a particularly annoying submission to someone who engages better with the submitter, or has a fresh set of eyes to make sure it works right.
That allows for you to eliminate every reviewer but the one you want reviewing your stuff.I feel it should be fine to state as you're posting the original submission if there's anyone you don't want reviewing it. That way it can't be abused in terms of selecting your reviewer specifically and also there's no "giving in" because its stated up front not after involvement.
That allows for you to eliminate every reviewer but the one you want reviewing your stuff.
I don't think we need a glorified hate-pit; we have a report system and an open staff as is. Giving people a board to validate bad blood and talking on the grounds of "unbiased complain sharing" will only invite arguments. If you have a problem with an NTSE member that's legit, report it. If Wes or staff isn't acting on it then it's because the report isn't substantial or fails to meet an actual report-worthy statement; trust me as someone who has been told this before after making reports.I do see it's either all or nothing as Meta says. People have always stretched and abused the slightest leeway, no matter what side they fall on. In this case it's best we rule on the side less biased - the reviewers. I agree with you all and you can discount my statement supporting the submitters, I was mainly playing devil's advocate from my experience. I hope it showed that point of view.
I imagine many of us support Syaoran's view, additionally I can envision the majority of complaints go generally unnoticed in the grand scheme of things. Reported upwards to be forgotten amidst so many other things. I can testify to this to some extent myself as a moderator where you either act in the moment or the issue is forgotten only to resurface worse.
If those responsible for managing this community had a static central and unbiased place where complaints were registered I think this could help a lot. To see who is actually objectively causing the most unrest. I would be happy to set one up.
