I agree.

This article elicits a sense of elitism with its translator ranking system, particularly the ‘unrecommended’ black-list that isn’t a black list. If a list must be made, then as suggested before, generate one that names only the ‘recommended’. Ironically this somewhat contradictory to the grassroots, ‘you’re only limited by you’ appeal that the Vocaloid brand has garnered.

One of the things about being a fan is contributing to the fandom. Fans shouldn’t be looking down on other fans’ contributions just because it doesn’t meet their standards, or because they feel more so entitled to the fandom because of their ethnicity, profession and/or abilities.
