the reason why the decision to approve/reject is not "up to the hundreds of users" is because those hundreds of users are normally rash and, to be quite honest, dont know what they are talking about. IF it was up to the users as you say it should be, the resource section would be flooded with metaphorical crap.
our job as moderators is to, as the name suggest, moderate. not approve. our job INCLUDES approving AND rejecting resources. our job is to make sure this flood of crap does not happen by letting people know that crap isnt welcome in the resource section
and if you have any OTHER complaints to make, feel free to pm me
