I think it's good to normalize not bullying people for their art or not giving concrit when it wasn't asked for, but I also think people are under no obligation to praise/like/reblog art that isn't very good and that they don't really like, just because the artist is new. And if an artist is going to enter any kind of exchange/big bang/zine etc. I think it's perfectly fair to expect a certain level of quality. There's room to learn and new artists should be encouraged but I also don't think they need to be coddled (and at some point they should start learning and improving, I've been in fandoms where one artist is constantly complaining about not getting any attention but they've been drawing the same shitty MS Paint drawings for years at this point. If you want attention in fandom improve enough that people will want to reblog your stuff).

I get zines limiting their participants since physical products means limited space but is it fair to put a quality bar for exchanges/big bangs? I wouldn't know how to judge that, but at the same time I feel bad if a fantastic and experienced fic author got paired with a newbie artist...

That's really the issue with exchanges/big bangs, because it would suck to spend a ton of time writing a long, immersive fic only to be paired with an artist whose art is half-traced official art badly scanned on regular paper and colored in crayon, especially if all the other fics got really nice looking art. Same with exchanges, I feel like it would be unfair for one artist to draw this lovely detailed piece and get shaky MS Paint art in return. It might suck for new artists but they're just not skilled enough to handle that sort of thing (and I would feel the same with fics, a newbie fic writer with poor grammar and bad plotting entering a big bang and paired with an experienced fanartist wouldn't really be fair either).
