Title: Do you stop shooting when BigStock goes down?

"File uploading has been temporarity disabled to allow us to reduce the number of files waiting review in the Approval Queue."

Obviously (to me) if they reduce the number of files waiting but we get a big backlog of stuff to upload, the moment they open the FTP again, we all smash them with files and they can't handle it (again).  When you're getting shut down every other week, its' time to add a reviewer or ten, don't you think?

Just my 2c.

 Closing the queue can only make a significant difference at places like IS where there is a lower limit of uploads allowed.

Perhaps they just don't like working weekends.  They get around to reviewing all of mine, so closing down for a few days doesn't make much difference to me.
