The new TF marketplace

There isn't a way to do this pleasing everyone, I also think pleasing shouldn't be a priorite, we should be harsh as possible and kickass.

Heres how I see it.

Put together a team and entrust them to decide if said designer is worthy of selling their work. Between 3-4 people we can easily make the correct decision 99% of the time.

Sure, some people will be disgruntled because they're are refused but they're a minority and a casualty to a greater good.

The marketplace activity will probably take a sudden dip but the quality will rise, as will TF's reputation as a quaility marketplace. Shaping the mould for perfect growth.

That's the single most obnoxious sentiment I've seen on this subject. I really hope you're not serious about wanting to screen only folks who meet your definition of "worthiness". Wow, Artashes, your new staff really have their heads screwed on!
