Deletion appeal thread

Paraphrased from forum #25998, regarding deletion of unneeded posts from this thread: Extraneous chatter in this thread is likely to be deleted, and in the worst cases, negative records will be left for those who ignore the rules.

The lengthiest discussion that should generally be allowed about a single appeal is:

1) Uploader lists a few appeals (always)
2) A mod explains the reasons for deletion (occasionally)
3) User replies only if the deletion/explanation was based on factually incorrect information; i.e., it was not a nude filter and here's the link on the artist's website for proof. (rarely)

End. Anything beyond that is almost never going to be needed. Maybe an "oh you're right, undeleted" if applicable. Almost everything else can be removed.

For the most part, there's no need to go beyond step 1. Uploader appeals it, we look at it, and either it gets undeleted or it doesn't. Uploaders who pursue beyond this point are generally the ones uploading terrible images or not reading the rules anyway.

I also want janitors and mods to be more polite in response to appeals. Yes, an image may be shit. But we don't necessarily have to say that. I've often thought it, but I try to let the fact that I didn't approve their appeal speak for me. Some people only really get set off if they receive and unnecessarily blunt reply.

Unfortunately, some people won't "get it" unless you're really blunt, but hopefully they can be dealt with in ways that keep appeal thread clutter to a minimum.

Oh sorry. Will do that. Btw... Thank you for reconsidering most of these posts. However, I noticed post #515040 has not been approved yet. I'd like to point out that I think this is a very nicely done piece of modern fan art based on characters from Genesis Climber Mospeada, perhaps the best I've seen in a while... is the artist banned or something?

I don't like it very much.
