wow not funny... or is it?
the first few seconds of it i was thinking "you're right. why wasn't this blammed? i do wonder how this could have passed", but after a couple of minutes, i realized that for some reason, i was still watching it. lol
Heil responds:
silly
Huh?
Why are their so many authors if this is just a photo that says "/flash" and the laugh of Ed?
Heil responds:
hard work
What he said
Odysseus sums it up pretty much, established artists of any quality have a good chance of getting submissions through. For most people, the only incentive to vote is to stack up numbers within the shortest timespan possible.
These people just on an under judgement as soon as it appears, instantly assess the title and icon, then look at the artist. If they haven't voted by then, they might have a glance at the artist's profile and flick open their quick flash jump for a few seconds.
It's basically about who you are, rather than what you do.

go die in a hole somewhere.
Why wasn't it blammed? I'll tell you...
What you're seeing here is a phenomena that occurs to flash artists such as yourself, the Kitty Krew, Fleek, F4g0T, Orangebeef, Stagbeetle, the Star Syndicate, etc. People who actually vote while a submission is "Under Judgment" are, more than likely, trying to advance their Blam/Protect score. Now, since the ranking system puts equal weight on both blams and protects, their is little incentive to blam flash like this during judgment. I'd wager to say many users have vote 0 several times before, only to lose out on Blam/Protect points.
When a new flash is introduced, the user looks at the name artist. When they see your name, they are more apt to auto-vote favorably and usher in the inevitable. Due to their own experience, they know all of these artists have a history of making bad flashes that more often than not pass. Why should the user waste their time voting zero? It's more pragmatism than anything. They are just advancing the stats on their profile page.
Heil responds:
and this has nothing to do with the content of the flash faggot
