All of my submissions are expiring. Is anyone there?
I wrote a longer reply but decided to move the lengthy reply to a journal so all our members may benefit from the info! 

In the journal post is a short message explaining that submissions *should* be back up and running and now auto-accepting the submissions...but that I would love some feedback from people submitting to make sure there are no more problems! I had a hiccup in trying to set it to auto-accept and so it wasn't showing up that I had any submissions to even accept. There is a longer message underneath it that explains the entire situation for the people interested in knowing more about what was going on!

Thank you so much for sending me a message to let me know the issue still wasn't fixed or I might not have known! Please let me know if you have any issues submitting now!
Thank you! Looks like it's working now :)
Yay! Thank you so much! If you run into anymore
problems feel free to comment or send a PM over to me either
one! Thank you fo much for letting me know so I could check
into it again and get it fixed right!
You put the mature folder on the last spot on the 2nd page... ya sure you wantz us in there?
I put the mature folder on the last page because I have had some members mailing recently about any possible way to keep it more hidden (as we do have some members who aren't into the whole mature BJD pics thing...our group is equal opportunity on that front and always has been so I try to make both sides comfortable as possible in the matter). There really isn't a way to keep the deviations from showing up in the recently added when I do a round of acceptances so the only compromise I can offer is to put it to the second page in the gallery that way members not wishing to see mature BJD related things, but still wishing to peruse our gallery may do so in comfort. This wouldn't even be possible if we had any less folders because as it is we only have enough to push one folder to page 2. - BUT I will say, before we starting adding folders, the Mature folder was ALWAYS supposed to be the last folder in the gallery that way people could just not scroll to the main bottom if they wished to not see it. But then we added the crafting folder...then later blushing and faceups...and then memes...etc. And we had been sort of lazy with rearranging to how we said it would be in the first place.

Not really sure why our club rearranging a gallery is something you took as offensive though to yourself. We have almost 400 members and we aren't so petty that we do things to just cater to one, or to just pick out one person as a negative target. I had about 5 messages from people who have issues with seeing mature doll related content asking very politely was there any thing they could do (they meant in their own settings) or that we could do to make it not so in your face in our gallery. Some people (especially for people who have sexuality related problems or trauma) are sort of triggered by mature images of otherwise seemingly innocent pieces of resin so it bothers them to see it. Like I said, I understand both sides (I write erotica and also take more mature photos of my resin boys as well) and I try my best to make everyone feel comfortable and that was the only solution I could offer (moving the gallery to the main end) which was in a way the solution we always offered we just hadn't rearranged the gallery in a while (and it just used to be at the main end of page one instead of page 2 as we didn't use to have 2 pages of galleries). We hope you understand the decision and also that you do not take offence that people had mailed us questioning if we could do something with that. No one said anything rude at all in these notes, they were all very extremely polite (a few even saying that they understood if we couldn't/wouldn't do anything in the matter but as I said, I try to be fair to both sides of the coin) and no one mentioned usernames or anything at all. We have quite a few people who submit fairly regularly to the mature folder (I have a few in there myself I believe). 
Nice, that pretty clear. I already thought such thing but I guess I was a bit in a kicking mood also. When I finally have some more clothes I can do some non-nudies finally. I'm only on social security with the wrong hobby so I need to pick of the cheap clothes and wait weeks and months before they finally drop in the mail but not with the luxury that I can just find a set on the same day so pieces of sets that I have in mind drop here and there.

The problem here has also been resolved that I was scrolling on every group page after page to find a mature folder because I can't remember which group has one or not and I've been given some mails in the past that I posted in the wrong spots, so just to be sure I scroll every folder and when I don't see a mature I can search if it has to go in 1/3 or just females etc.
What that came to is that I found out that I could just see the folders on the left side and not having to scroll through all the folders but that took a few weeks to see that because when I made that my way of doing things I didn't look any further. So apart from that my photos are not visible it is easier for me to just look at the left side and click a folder, besides had some other stuff going on but thanks for your kind explanation and see you in a few weeks when the stuff has arrived!
