It's either two things... For whatever reason the mod who views it decides to not feature it, or it gets featured, then immediately gets downvoted back to submission before you realize it's featured. I think sometimes too a mod just misses one or disapproves them by accident. Can you send links so I can see which ones and maybe give you an idea?

This one I had doubts about..





And when I was looking for these that didn't feature I saw that my "Go be stupid" one that was on the front page for a few hours is now "submitted" instead of featured. I don't get the rules here!

These three wouldn't be featured because they aren't even memes, just templates. (I know, there's people that post templates and those get featured. Go figure) Supposedly, the rules to post say that you can't just post a picture. The "Shave the Baby" pic has been around for a long time. My cousin posted that years ago on Imgur under questionable Christmas presents, and he said it was old back then. The multi pic one is just a collection of The People Of Walmart that's had the logo removed. The Boudins Blancs, while hilarious, was rejected because it's definitely not a meme.Strictly shock value.

The thing is, the mods will tell you there are rules, but they only seem to want to enforce them when they get a wild hair up their ass. My cousin had a hell of a time with it, and would complain vocally about it. I guess one of them got tired of it: He went to log in and his account didn't exist any more. He was well established on the site, #32 on the leaderboard, then Poof, he was gone. No warning message, no, You're banned from here, nothing. When I joined, I told him I'd make memes when I could, but after seeing the trouble he had with his first account, I said I'd quit posting when they stopped featuring my posts. I had to take a break (They only failed to feature one post, even though it was obvious that I added something, and that stuck in my craw. I had to stop for a while, but I haven't submitted anything in nearly a year. I could submit the sausage one as a stand alone post, but I don't want to fall into that trap. They expect everyone to post original material, and will get pissy about it if you're in their sites, like Swiggy was. If they want to treat us like paid writers, then they need to pay us for what we do.

Yeah I don't really see anything with those that should keep them from being featured. Did they have any text, or you submitted like that? Sometimes no next, watermarks, or existing text will knock them out. And for the one that made the front page, then got pulled, that's a mod doing it for some reason. It's never happened to me, but it's happened to lots of others including Raydog. I think the rules greatly vary from mod to mod. But I'd suggest submitting them again to see what happens. Sometimes it works on the second or third try

And as far as the one that went back to submitted after being on the front page, I really can't complain.. I just enjoy the 15 seconds of fame when it happens.. :-D
