This site can be a stepping stone for people who would like to be published in mags and perhaps novels. If this community would allow stories that are poorly written like JTK or just have a terrible plot, well that would make any editor or publisher run for the hills. As a community we should take pride in the stories which a published here, not have to deal with stories which are so below par that they cannot even spell one of the main character's names correctly.

Also, the users have voted. I wasn't here when that issue had been taken up, so I cannot say anything on that poll. However, whenever something is going to change, the admins ask the users. Let your voice be heard if you don't like the idea, but don't cry about not winning the vote if the rest of the community felt differently.

I agree with NSFW pastas not being allowed to be POTM (another poll I wasn't around for,) because I wouldn't want my kids to read some of those stories. They are always looking over my shoulder while I am on the computer. (As a disclaimer, my children cannot read yet, but that is besides the point.) So, in my eyes, the admins are doing the best they can and are working hard for this site to be the best it can. People who don't think this site is up to par can go pound sand. Just because a poorly written story isn't here, and they cannot write their poorly written spin-offs, we don't need that here.

If the QS were so lax that anyone could publish it would be pointless to try and get published here. Go to any of the other hundred sites where you can publish without knowing how to write anything even remotely like English. We, as a community, should not degrade our integrity because someone got their panties in a twist because a shitty story is no longer allowed on the webpage, or because stories where it is all about blood, guts, and assholes isn't allowed on the front page.
