I have a problen.
 

Dear friends/coleagues.

I want to share with you a problem I faced:
Yesterday I realized that about 100 points were omitted from my account.
Then I read some messages from senior members (owning more than 1000 points):
Telling that my pages (mostly frames) weren �t adequate!
Maybe they are right? But the fact is:
a. 100 members found them adequate and already downloaded them.
b. You can �t "punish" and only then set the rules.
Therefore, I think these points should be given back to me.
I �d like to read your opinions on this issue.

Hi there, while I understand that you are disappointed, Victor the sites owner has made very clear what he wants on his site:

We only accept ESL resources written in English language. A frame, a border or a single drawing is not an ESL resource. Remember that this website is not a clipart collection.

In the reporting section he has even down the side given examples of what is acceptable and not so that the people voting can understand and not be hasty. On the whole people are voting on the side of caution, especially with regard to worksheets that have been flagged as copied or stolen from other members. A direct weblink must be given.

I don �t make the rules of this website. Victor does, and as this website has grown he has made the rules of what materials he wants here on his site. He added the part about frames a while ago now. So the bottom line is the part written in orange above. Giving opinions in the end are not going to solve anything, and maybe it would have been better for you to write to Victor directly so that he could explain to you why. This is his site and we need to respect what he wants for his site.

Hi im very unhappy with what i�ve found here...im looking for worksheets for one of my studants and i found this website...but many things here werent true...i know we all need to share our worksheets but everything how it works should be visible....like you�re not gonna get anything if you dont install the shitty toolbar and if you dont send anything you�re not gonna get anything....this is a waste of time doing everything and in the end you dont get anything...
if i get something with this sitty toolbar your website is gonna be reported.


make things VISIBLE for everyone....tell every step..dont make them make their accounts and find out they not gonna get anything....

fucking assholes!!!!

Dear jorge.uk,
That kind of language is not acceptable! Not from a teacher! What do you teach your students with this attitude? The rules are rules. If you do not like them, feel free to search for ESL worksheets somewhere else. We all started from the scratch here! And we did it! With patience and hardwork. If you don �t have these qualities, you clearly don �t belong here!

I don �t know who told you the toolbar was necessary, either! You really don �t need to install it (but you may need to install a language filter...)
