[Custom Decor] Custom Decor System Needs Reform

Posted 2024-02-21 09:20:24
Here with a potential fix for our concerns about favoritism or animosity effecting the likelihood of certain decors being rejected or approved - the CD artist and submitter's information should be hidden from whoever is conducting approvals/rejections. Certain companies do this with resumes, for example my friend who does coding for a living has to submit a piece of code as a part of her job application, but when the code is being reviewed all of her personal information is hidden from the person who is reviewing it - therefore there can be no bias regarding age, gender, other demographics.
If Wolvden devs want CD artists to know, with confidence, that favoritism is not at play when it comes to approving or rejecting art, then they should put a system in place where that information is only revealed after the decision to approve or reject a piece of art has already been made and established.
If favoritism IS the problem, then upon implementing this we would see an immediate shift in what is and what isn't being approved.
If the problems are simply because of inconsistent standards, then implementing this feature would at least make it abundantly clear that someone needs to go through with a fine tooth comb and explicitly outline what is or isn't acceptable as well as create better guides.

100% agree with what shunkana has stated above. I am not a custom decor artist, but I am an artist, and I've been selling my art for a few years now. I've sold art on other platforms and they too have a system where the artists information isn't disclosed until after the art is accepted or rejected. Having this system implement here on wolvden would give peace of mind and make it more fair and just to the amazing custom decor artists we have on wolvden.

I think that would be a fantastic solution! I've added it to the main post with credit to you for the idea

Thank you so much for your support on my thread! The nastiness resulting from these conflicts has been very difficult for me to manage lately. It's completely fine if people disagree with me here, or even hate me for it and think I'm a horrible person because of what I've said in this thread. But I'd really prefer if people could voice their concerns and disagreements respectfully and constructively within this thread. Saying cruel & threatening things to/about people on anonymous platforms because you disagree with their opinion on custom decors is not particularly fun for me to deal with, and is taking it way too far imo.
