Apparently this will keep people motivated to do awesome work.
Then you'll have plenty of content you can pick and choose from

I've been listing what I need for Maloria for the past several days, and I've gotten great response from its community. I tell them straight-up whether their work will be used or not after they do it, and if not, I give them reasons why. (More than just a simple "It looks bad" or whatever.) I collaborate with other users to improve their work, as long as it has potential - even if it's not quite on par with the level of quality we look for. And that's something that doesn't really happen on Kingdoms. It's always a 'maybe' or flat rejection with no explanation or effort to improve the submitted content.

An even bigger mistake would be leaving it unfixed or refusing to rectify the abuse. (Be it through removal of exp, banning, and so on.) Bugs have to be killed, regardless of how many players have gotten ahead because of them. It's a sad state of affairs when the only way to level on a server is through exploitation, and even sadder when administrators turn a blind eye to injustice.

Precisely.
