Not really.
I expect that people who are made contributors know their stuff (their uploads aren't "crap") and so uploading a better version couldn't hurt.
In case a contributor upload is "crap", then uploading a better version couldn't hurt either, since I would just get one more deleted post, and the mods and janitors would get the chance to unnaprove and delete the child post as well.
This wasn't the case in post #465458, so I'm trying it again to see what happens.

Not everything a contributor uploads is GREAT DANBOORU MATERIAL, and neither is everything that is approved.

That's what the unapproval system is for, you don't need to upload an upscaled version of the picture to "get the attention of the mods." Uploading a better version is nice and all that, but doing it for that reason is pretty stupid.

Hey relax, no need to get angry or personal.
The unnaproval system is for privileged and above (I'm a member) so I don't think uploading this is really that stupid (it's still a better version anyway)
Not that I wanted to get your post unnaproved, I actually like this sort of stuff and would like both of them to stay, that's why I was curious to see how it'll be handled (to see whether or not I could upload similar stuff, or to see if I had any justification to appeal stuff like post #465458, etch.)
I admit it was kinda sneaky of me to do this, and for that I must apologize.
Granola said: Its true that unapproved is for privleged and up. But uploading posts that you know will be deleted will probably not get you to priv. :P
I didn't post this knowing it will be deleted.
I'd seen the pic in pixiv, but I didn't post it knowing it had a greater chance of it being deleted had a member uploaded it.
Thankfully, you uploaded it later, so I just took the opportunity to upload the bigger version, knowing that it's harder for stuff to get unnapproved (apparently they also get approved more easily in that case: forum #22809) thus making it more likely for this to stay, and giving me the opportunity to appeal it along with some of my older posts if it's deleted without the child post following it.
I apologize for all this sneaky shit once again. Perhaps I'm trying too hard to get this type of content on Danbooru (which isn't really against any rules, I still don't know why people create so much drama over it), but what can I say? I'm a /d/ person.
