Cleaning Day

Hi Folks it is that time of year again, when we have to make room in the galleries. For those of you that are new. These "Cleaning days" basically consist of the admin staff going into that galleries, forums, and other areas of the site and fixing things, such as mis-postings and things of that nature. We also take this time to remove images that are of lower quality, are older, or are not popular from the site. We do this for 2 reasons, one to keep the sites image archives one of the highest quality and two, to ensure that we have room for all the new art for years to come. If you have any questions please use the "Ask MatrixBlur" Link.
The reason that we inform everyone in advance about cleaning day is that galleries get churned up and people may not want to make posts until the cleaning has been completed as they could get lost off the front page.

Please Note: Your post count will go down. 99.9% of you are ok with this. But we have a couple members that take this personally, and feel that their post count is there life blood.
Unfortunately due to the constant, unbearable, flame like, and unreasonable complaints about post count numbers made after the last few cleaning days, complaints solely about post count will result in a post count reduction to zero! We tried to resolve these issues with a couple of members over the last three cleaning days, no solution seemed amicable to them other then to continue to complain or to increase their post count to level even higher then what they had before the cleaning or to give them credit for things not on the site, We did not think this was fair to all the other members of the site and quite frankly, We do not want to go over it again.
