I really wish the mods would just scrap the app workshop altogether.
It's not the responsibility of the playerbase to workshop other people's apps. The only one responsible for that app is the applicant. It's nice if someone else can look it over, but not necessary, and a lack of response certainly doesn't mean that newbies are unwanted or not cared for by the current playerbase. Maybe someone is busy, or not canon familiar, or they just don't feel comfortable telling a person their app looks great when they aren't mods and might be setting that person up for disappointment if they get rejected.
It it was just a neglected copypasted post, I'd say meh, some people have used it and it's not like it takes a lot of effort to put it up, might as well keep it around. But I've seen multiple people now say that seeing a neglected app workshop post makes the game look unfriendly and uncaring (even though most games don't have app workshops period) so yeah I wish they'd quietly scrap it.
