At what point might a system be put in place so that images are not reviewed and accepted by anyone? Perhaps new users have be put through a permissions test to make them understand what is acceptable (in case they do not read the FAQ or the constant threads about scans).
There are still a lot of members, both new and old, that continue to ignore the simple steps put in place. I get that not everyone has a scanner; my answer to that is don't attempt the uploads.

Almost as bad as someone loading "stolen" images of a Topps set into an O-Pee-Chee set just to get the points.

While I can see the reasoning for leaving some images until replacements can be found, it's ones like this that I'd rather just have pulled altogether. Blatant disregard for the rules on top of the pics being worthless as is.
I don't have a scanner, nor will I be buying one. Even though I have cards that need scans on this site I will never attempt to circumvent the set policies just to get them up. Forever L6!

A major issue is that even if an image in the queue is marked with a problem (i.e., photographed), it still gets posted and the user still gets credit / points.

If it's in a queue for approval then it should have nee rejected. I don't known if this particular person has automatic posting right, but it needed approval first it should have been outright rejected.

Since it is a brand new user, they would not have such permissions. I did not see this particular card in the queue, but I can guarantee that the person who "approved" this actually flagged it appropriately, as in a rejection, yet it still gets posted, tagged for replacement and the new user gets credit for their "upload".

I cropped it to at least get the hands out of the picture. Still, this stuff really shouldn't be allowed through.

Besides not letting problem status uploads go through, perhaps it is time for an "Approved, Seconded" system like the Inaccuracy Reports.
