The site is becomeing ill...

8,761 PlaneSmith  8.9 years ago

I got on the site today and started scrolling through newest as I always do.... Then I noticed a copied plane and reported it, Dident think that much of it and carried on Then I noticed another AND another! I total I found 9. All this YouTube attention has brought some of the younger folk understandingly but it has also made the site grow. But is that a good thing? Soon enough the site could become all coppies and few original posters and that's something we all don't want. So Please DONT COPY.
And have a good day. (This is my opinion. What is yours?). And please don't take this as hate, I love this sight very much and don't want to see it go down the drain.

    some guy re-uploaded my RFW VENOM a while ago, he kinda gave me credit but he changed pretty much nothing... i left some comments and pointed out that he didnt even paint the FOUR RCN NOZZLES... he reuploaded a painted version and said nothing...

    Having been here for a year, I never thought there would be this much spam. It's overwhelming! I am almost constantly on SP and would gladly be a mod, but I don't think that will happen sadly.

    Il admit I have uploaded a plane and it seemed like I did that for views but it was unintentional and when pointed out I changed it, that's also why I'd like a hidden code as then you could also prove you created a plane instead of being acused

    I Agree. It's one thing to download and change a plane but some people just copy and post as if it's theirs.

    @RocketLL maybe the devs can create an embedded code that cannot be changed like a invisible bar code that only code savy people can access and that will sort the problem

    All I can say more mods won't help, a change to the successor system will be much more effective.

    Also the community has to report copied planes, we can't go through every single plane on the site to check.

    All I can say is "PROTECT YOUR 'PITS!!!" What I mean, make your cockpits less accessable so it's not as easily put back together

    I liked it before all the YouTube publicity. The devs probably loves all these new people though. But there should be something that checks successor planes info, like dead weight, wingspan, etc. Then if their the same it would be taken off. Idk but this website is getting huge. It's harder to get upvotes and just a lot of planes that are made with little to no effort. Not trying to dis the website, just saying my opinion.

    I'm also sick (VERY SICK) of the little effort designs, I'd understand if you were to just start, but for everyone's sake don't make 10 different "turrets" if you want to call them that

    Stick here and do what we do, I was thinking of having a way for them people (You know who, call them what you want lol) to get they're planes from somewhere else, reducing traffic for US (ye the cool peeps) and they'll have they're way with planes

    Yes I think the coping has gotten a little out of hand, but I'm ok with it if someone has added or improved upon the design and gave credit to the original designer. There need to be a way to informed this rule better if that means getting a group together to monitor the "newest planes" when the mods can, or there needs to be more official mod on the site
