Event id #2065 : 3-Color-Logo Competition 2013

"Submitted by dandee [PM] on 7 March 2013
Bad news. Sorry to say, but Didi has been kicked out of CSDB and he asked me to tell you that the compo is canceled, as he can't take care from the outside. The reasons for kicking him are kind of a mystery to us and have not been told. Ask the admins of this very site for reasons. Sad to see another active guy, that actually contributed a lot (specially to growth of this archive) been thrown out. Sorry to all you guys who did a fabulous job and put much efforts into this, but under this circumstances you probably will understand that it does not make much sense to carry on with this compo. Never really been active here, but I guess I will deactivate my account as well. Take care..."

So, what happened here?

As long as that "living room" analogy goes, it falls short when we consider that this is a digital medium and "appropriate" measures can be taken to avoid whatever happened, instead of ruining the whole party.

Just limit the stuff he can do that you consider somehow harmful (such as changing titles or whatever it is) and let him in. And this should be a standard practice about somebody regularly opposing the rules (practically). Verbal opposition can always be discussed anyway.

Wanna be our tour manager? You can do that in 600-1000 visitor clubs and every night is a hand-to-hand fight :)

Apart from joke, metal scene is quite alright I guess, they tend to behave. Never needed any action and we had 15 or so years on the road.


Okay I'll go and wear a F'n smoking next time. So what? :)

Haha pointless waste of time reading all this crap.

Whatever Dodi had done, his idea for the logo competition has spawned 80 (!) logo productions within a frame of a few weeks – what has never been seen before (correct me if I am wrong).

Considering the fact CSDB is funded publicly there should be a board of directors ;-) But sadly, it comes back to the old "who has the power" statement.

Seriously I couldn't care less about what Didi and "the admins" had clashed about – but I do care about this platform.

So, just keep submitting the hot stuff guys, the good will always win in the end, according to the law of karma.

The compo won't be cancelled as long as you keep contributing!

csdb may be not democratic, but it still has to be follow certain rules so the community remains, how will the site running without the community donating and sorting the DB and living in here? and I guess today it's much easyer to create a site like this than the time CSDB was created. The site should be redone from scratch anyway I guess, its entangled in old php spaghetti afaik. just my 2 cents.

Any plans for a new 3-color or maybe a multicolor logo competition? :-)
