Dear Media

[SchwarzNarr]

Some of y'all need to chill. Since SchwarzNarr's been in the league she's been paid more for media than almost any other user. I think Tesla might be the only person who's earned more. This time, she didn't get paid NSFL money for writing about dungeons and dragons. I really don't think this is some outrageous decision.

So for me, here's the thing.

1. The way you phrase that makes it sound like "You made enough money, you don't get to make any more," which, while I get is not your intention, why does discussion surrounding one article really need any conversation about my bank balance? I have money - so what? That doesn't change the fact that based on prior history within the league's media page, as well as the FAQ itself, the article seems as though it should have been paid.

2. There was 0 communication to me. At all. I agree that media graders do not need to provide feedback on every article - that isn't at all what this is, though. This is straight out "We aren't grading it, we're not telling you we're not grading it, and we're hoping it'll die quietly."

Again, that may not have been the intention of the media graders, but that's exactly the situation that it is now being perceived as.

Just because you state the FAQ is out of date doesn't meant that the league shouldn't be following it until it's updated. How are users supposed to know the rules have supposedly changed when there is 0 communication to this point.

I'm not frustrated with you, I appreciate more than anything you taking the time to add your thoughts and comments to the conversation. Like I said earlier - if I had been told within hours or so of the Media Department coming to a decision that "Hey, we looked and as a team we decided this really doesn't fit the league and our goal," it wouldn't have been an issue. The fact that I only found out because I checked the bank log and then went and noticed it was skipped is my biggest issue here.
