One thing to keep in mind: Getting rejected doesn’t mean that you’re failure neither bad. Those that persists are the one that will receive the reward later on. But for those that just give up as in stop doing anything are those that doesn’t receive the joy in the end and moves on to something else.

It is not rejection which triggers frustration; it is the way feedback is given, so generic. How designer or developer will know what area they have to improve. It is like shooting in dark without aim..

I completely agree – if an item isn’t up to TF’s standards and is rejected, they should reply with a more detailed reason, explaining what needs to be improved in order to get it approved. Currently they give a brief reason which is quite useful, but more detail would significantly help in improving the item!
I appreciate there may be many items to review each day, but the reviewers do do a good job in maintaining the marketplace’s high standard.

I wondering about this sort of thing earlier – I submitted an item that got rejected, and was wondering if I resubmitted and a different reviewer saw it it may get approved? It would be nice if that was so, as I haven’t got any time to update that project anymore.
