Interesting debate. From my point of view it is not the rules that are the problem, but the inconsistent, and sometimes arbitrary way in which they are applied. I have stuck with Shipspotting even when it seems to me quite randomly one of my photographs has been deleted, because it is the best site for shipping photographs, but it is not without it's own problems at times. For example, I had a photograph deleted for a reason I though was very harsh. As an experiment I reposted it a few weeks later. It is still on here. I had one photograph deleted because the admin said the colour of the hull was wrong!!!!! In fact it had just come out of dry-dock, and the hull had been repainted a slightly different shade of green. However this site is not unique in having these sorts of problems, I belong to a couple of aviation sites, and they have very similar problems. In this case what is an acceptable obstruction for one person, is not for an other. It is a great shame when this leads to someone deleting their photographs. I would have left them on here, but not posted any more. It is other members who lose out when you delete photographs, anot the admins.
