Earlier today I posted this message:
"So one of my top uploads was deleted today. You know, it really would be nice if you gave, say, an explanation as to why. Otherwise it just comes across as incredibly stupid. This particular upload had been on Zedge for about 4 or 5 months with no problems. It had about 8000 downloads. Today, it was deleted. No explanation, as per usual. I guess that's just far too sensible and logical, it's not like it would help if we were given an explanation so that we didn't do it again. I don't know why I'm even wasting my time writing this when I'm sure the response I get will be inadequate. I'm sick and tired of this, and the deletion process is in dire need of changing so it is more transparant and fair. The only logical reason I can think of is that it was a double post or upload or whatevr you call an upload thats already on here. But that's because I created a theme with the same picture instead of a wallpaper! Some people might have wanted it as a theme and not a wallpaper. i suppose whoever deleted it did not take the time to check that sort of thing.

Whoever reads, and probably locks, this thread, sorry to be rude, I know it's probably not your fault. But I'm pretty angry. This keeps happening, and usually the reply is pretty pathetic and useless. At the risk of sounding dramatic, if I don't recieve a decent response this time, I will probably upload things elsewhere.

Thank you for taking the time to read this, I'm sure you have better things to do as well "

This response was along the lines of 'I believe the policy on this is fairly clear' and provided a link to the stickied thread on deletions.
That is quite clearly an inadequate response to my problem. If that is all Zedge can do, then goodbye. IMO, the stickied thread is not adequate, but since my initial thread was locked, I can do little more than post another. If this is locked, then it just goes to show that even this sites uploaders, who may I remind you pretty much keep this site going via contributions, are not respected. Please have the decency to A.) Give me a proper response or reason as to why Zedge can not provide a more transparant deletion process, and B.) Don't lock this thread so that I can reply without having to start a new thread.

Grow up and learn to deal with these disputes in a sensible and fair way, instead of providing a sub-standard response and locking my thread.

The reason your topic keeps getting locked is that nobody in the forums is responsible for deleting uploads. And that includes Jeremy. You need to use the contact zedge button at the bottom of the page to get any type of response. The forums are simply not the place to discuss your uploads being deleted.
