Many members are sad to see priceless memories from their favorite beanfest, a picture with your friend, or stuff that you laughed about no matter how many times you viewed it. There were countless threads as I recalled reading through and going through all sides of the situation silently. I'm sure we all realize how much we are all suddenly missing something in TTC now that the new rule swept here about these banned image hosting sites. There are still plenty of hosting sites to upload our images on. The one problem that we have is that we have to really work to get the memories and information back to TTC in order for others to view it.
TTC is an extremely lucky site with all of its doners and extra features it has compared to most forums. For one thing, we have our own image gallery! That's huge! Now tell me about another Disney site not owned by Nick that has its own gallery. We are really lucky to have great moderators and administrators who are willing to go through with their own time to approved the images when they could be doing something better with their time. Another great feature of this site is that we have our own arcade filled with more games than I may count! We have Trivia! Loads of fun times to spend here.
The mods and admins care a great deal about this site and could be doing more productive things. We should be very thankful for what we have. I think we've put enough on their shoulders and they don't need another job. Sure, we would all like to see the SSSs restored, but that isn't up to the mods and admins, that's up to the user who creates them.
About the parents choosing the appropriate hosting sites... Not all the parents are as active with their children on the Internet as some. We have to think about this and let differences behold. Besides, it's in the rules of how TTC is kept G-rated and that's the moderators and administrator's job. They decided which places are G-rated and which are not.
I think maybe we should think about how much the mods and admins are working now, and that not every parent moderates their child on the Internet.
