Simply put, it's easy to sit on the sidelines and comment negatively.
I would suggest that comments made so far are observational, not negative.
Not so easy if one is a participant in a contest and haven't made the cut.
Just the opposite I suggest. The last contest I entered just over a year ago left me with a very bad taste in my mouth. Without going into great detail, the "winners" were highly questionable, and the images I entered (which were arguably vastly superior to the so-called winners) did not even get included into the "honorable mentions". I showed the results to many people, and they all felt the same way. There must have been some political "thing" going on in the background with the so-called judges. The experience was deflating, frustrating, and I informed them that I will not be entering their contest again.
