The standards are right where they need to be. There are currently more than 10,000 stories on the wiki. Granted, a handful may be left over from an earlier time prior to when the QS were so strictly enforced, but even so there are literally thousands of stories and at least several hundred authors who have been able to make the cut.

Now to another point. The quality standards are where they are because Cleric and the other admins decided that was the level they wanted to accept on this privately operated, non-profit website that they founded/run. Are they perfect? Of course not, they're human (except Empy who is definitely a bot). But since it's their site, it's their call as to where the QS are.

And to close out, I truly don't see the need to get that upset about a story not being accepted here. If you take it as a challenge to improve your writing, fantabulous. If not, totally your call, there are plenty of other places for you to post stories on the internet. And speaking as someone who has had a couple of my pieces make the front page, if you're looking for fame and fortune, this isn't where you're gonna find it.
