Hi,
Has anyone else had issues with moderators deleting photo submissions for contests?
This is the third time it's happened to me, and I've only posted 3 times. The first time I submitted a picture I took on holiday and it got flagged as not unique via reverse image search. This really worried me as I had never posted it before and implied my data could have been breached.
When I got in contact with the mod they said it was a mistake because it looked similar to another picture but on closer inspection they were different. He said I could repost it and he would put a note to other mods about the false positive, but the repost also seemed to be removed.
This time I posted a picture for the gametag competition which is also unique, but it was removed for the same reason. This time I did a reverse image search on my own entry via google to check and saw nothing remotely similar.
I can only assume the algorithm used throws false positives quite often and the mods don't always check.
Has this type of thing happened to anyone else? I find it a bit disheartening.
