So, my first full week has come and gone. I can say, without a shadow of a doubt, that I've already managed to upset/annoy at least one person with my new rules. Gotta love when you have an effect!
The rule that seems to be causing issue is the one where I am blocking people long enough to remove the favourites they have of the club submissions. (It's only for a few seconds)... I am then contacting the person involved, stating they have been blocked for a second, and that they can rewatch the club if they choose.
Now, my message may be brusque, but I didn't think it was threatening, as one deviant did! Do note, most people have responded well...
I'd like your opinion, should I just message people asking them to remove the favourite (which people don't seem to do), or do I carry on with my system, where I remove the club submissions from their favourites for them?
Personally, I like my system. It makes sure the image is removed from their favourites, and makes them aware of the rules. I just want to make sure that you guys get the recognition you all deserve.
I've also realised that out of the 600 odd people watching the club, only about 60 of you read and respond to the journal(even if it is just clicking the poll). That's a shame...
I am moving into uni this next week, so submissions may be a bit slower for a bit. But, in a couple of weeks or so, maybe we can look into having some competitions. If anyone has ideas, do tell.
As there have been a lot of submissions this week, I am going to feature some of my favourites...
On another note, take a look at
, it's a great club, working to give deserving deviants brilliant comments. Now, are you deserving deviants?---------------------------

Maybe you could notify them first - if they don't respond, then block them?
Then they cant say you didnt warn them.

I was the girl with a silver umbrella, standing in the pouring rain, in gloom & despair, hurt & miserable, giving in & finally turning her back on the world, just as it had to her.
I argue that I do warn them... it's on every single image, it was in the journal on the front page for a week...

But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,

I know it's a bit harsh, but I do then invite them to re-watch the club. I just found (very quickly), that people did not remove the favourites when asked.
True. But you know, some people just don't seem to be bother reading or take any notice.
Sometimes harsh and too the point is the best way to be.

Exactly, and why should I waste my time on those people?
Yup, I agree.
But yeah, if its less stress and time consuming for you just carry on doing what your doing. People can learn to deal with it!

So, in my humble opinion there's nothing you have to feel bad about
