Or, you can just stop getting on their case about it, because you are.
"I want to be respectful, BUT" is NEVER something you should be saying here.
The lot of you are backseat moderating and nitpicking this kiddo's project far more than you need to, and I'm going to have to ask you all to stop this right here. He was told to move to a single project thread and post screenshots of his progress, and he did both. It isn't any of your jobs to decide whether it's good enough to belong here or not. If you're concerned about any particular thread, you can bring it up in the Talk to the Staff forum or report it on Discord.
As far as I'm concerned, he's not hurting anything. Maybe it's not interesting to most people here, but that's alright, he can still post about it, and it's not his job to entertain you -- it's only his job to stay on topic and in the right place.
