It's the same as it's always been. There has never been any pretense of equity or fairness and the site owners have a right to the final decision on which sets they buy, even if it means there is sometimes favoritism for photographers and models they like or to whom they have connections. I think some folks just never really noticed until now and it is silly of anyone to think change is going to come overnight. Archiving or zotting some of the folks showing the most outrage (passion?) probably isn't the most mature way of showing you are open to some sort of change, but people don't appreciate being yelled at, either. That being said, I don't come to SG for drama and really only visit to catch blogs or pics of a handful of people I do sincerely like personally, as well as out of habit from being here for nearly 20 years. It isn't what it used to be for me, but it's still a great community and networking platform for a lot of people and yet another place for models to promote their other platforms. I haven't been nearly as engaged with SG for the last several years and have considered not renewing my membership for the last three or four. But, I don't think this latest round of drama is going to set it back significantly. Those are my thoughts. :)
