The automated GE acceptance program is rather dumb to say the least.
Every time I make a minor modification to any of my models that have
previously been rejected for things like "building does not exist"
etc. they then get rejected again when I upload the modified version.

Why does the program not realise that a model that existed two months
ago probably still exists and should NOT be rejected for that reason,
wasting my time and Google's again and again?

Hi pmolsen

Your situation does sound frustrating.
I know you are no dummy when it comes to modeling as I have seen many
of your models which are good.

From what you are saying, it appears that the problem may not be so
much about modifications, but rather proving that the building
actually exists.

I have, on one or two occassions, had to submit a link to images
showing the actual building in relation to other verifyable buildings,
in order to have successful review results.
If you haven't already tried this, I would recommend doing so to see
if that helps any.

Hi pmolsen,

The team judging the models doesn't have access to the model judgment
history, so can't tell that a "building does not exist" judgment was
previously successfully appealed. We realize this is highly
aggravating, and are looking into some form of solution for it, but in
the meantime you'll just need to tell us we're wrong again.
