I had the first bum avatar.

We met about this last night. We think we might have a workable solution. I don’t want to announce anything officially yet, because there’s a good chance ET won’t be able to get started on any of it until next week.

It might be a bit harsh, but dammit, it’s necessary:

– Voters will be able to see the image’s source(s), just like admins can now.

– Users can flag an image as copyright. They must fill in a short explanation of why they believe it’s in violation.

– We will provide better resources on the difference between public domain, Creative Commons, copyright, etc.

– Flags and their explanations will be publicly listed and the users held accountable.

– It is a bannable offense to flag an image improperly. In the case of mistakes, buildrs will be able to dispute.

– Copyrighted images will be unable to win.

– Current copyrighted itembuildr images may be replaced with either a placeholder or a runner-up image (the latter may take a while, as the manual process is time-consuming).

– Current itembuildr winners may have their Peen stripped if their image is found to be copyright.
