Mod Announcement

[warmhearted]

Hello!

this is warmhearted, mod at britneyicons. I have recently purged all deleted members from this community, and to protect icon makers, membership is now moderated. If your request was rejected, please see the lj-cut.

well. a while ago, I visited britneyexperts.com and I saw them use my and other iconmakers icons posted up there but they asked their viewers to credit britneyexperts without permission. And I don't know who is the ljmember is or what his/her accountname is but yeah, I don't like them using my icons without asking or saying so (I hope you still understand me :P)

since i dont know who it is, i dont know who to ban. but hopefully when the purging ends, they will be one of the members deleted.

I've seen people using icons from here all over the place..including youtube.
I haven't paid much thought to it..would you like me to in the future?

I love your icon. :)

[warmhearted]

it will be hard to ban someone unless their youtube name is their lj name as well. I think the mistake was that while all entries were friends only, membership was open (so it defeated the purpose). Now that membership is moderated, and the purging of accounts have begun, hopefully those kind of incidents can be eliminated in the future. I rather have 200 crediting members than having a huge community of just numbers.

and sure if you would like, as long as you tell me the names, i can run a search on the members list, if they are found, they will be removed and banned, with no chance of even re-applying again.

It's good that this type of thing is moderated.People put a lot of hard work into their icons and deserve to be credited!

[warmhearted]

none of your icons are credited.

[warmhearted]

if you have the post so i can verify, sure! is not that i don't trust what you are saying but I am trying to do my best here to protect the icon makers here. hope you can understand! :)

we are having a hard time with deciding, because while you did credit, it was to the community and not to the actual credit markers.... we will accept but next time please credit the creditmakers, not this community :)

Thank you I will correct that.
