A suggestion.

Hello! Well, as most of you know, simpleplanes is not fair at times, some planes take a matter of minutes to make and get 5+ upvotes, while some other planes that could have taken hours or days to make can get less than 5 upvotes. And the reason behind this is due to the website only showing a few spots for new planes(notifications, new planes list and momentarly the hottest planes list), there needs to be more functions for the site, here are my suggestions:

A "Discover" search option with 2 modes, one allows you to see a list of planes with less than 3 upvotes and less than 100 downloads, and the other allows you to see a list of users with less than 5k points, less than 10 active followers and 1 plane or more.

A recomended list, it shows you planes you might like based off of what you have searched, upvoted, etc.

    @AndrewGarrison @MediocrePlanes @RocketLL i think this might be a good way for users to get recognized, btw "Active Followers" are just users that check out the user who they are following quite a bit.

    I like the discover idea but i really like the recomended one. I'm very addicted to heavy Bombers. But for unnoticed users I'd say the discover idea.

    Yeah, good idea. An option to search for planes with high upvote counts from users with a low score would probably be useful to find some nice, relatively unnoticed designs.

    I think you should be able to search by point range as well - i.e. <100, <500, <1,000 etc.
    How would the recommended work? Search for multiple tags simultaneously might be better.

    Great ideas! This site is a little behind imo. The newest page worked ok when the userbase was small, but the site needs to grow along with the game
