Issue of begging.

57.1k bjac0  8.5 years ago

Here i go again. Today, i want to talk to the community about some things that bother me, i have split them into multiple sections so its easier to read, moderators and devs, please take notice of this post as some of it may make you realise how bad these issues are.

Pushes

I've talked about pushes before, and i'll do it again, pushes basically take the purpose of upvotes away, i mean, really, do you honestly need 200 points at this very moment just so you can say you're gold or silver or whatever? Look, i know it seems inocent, but pushes are the same as begging, only its more effective.

Sneak peaks

This one i sorta get, but it can easily be done a different way, by uploading the pics to the forums, not uploading the damn plane by itself, i get it that some users want to keep their followers informed about whats gonna be next, but you can notify them via forum post, and the issue i have with sneak peaks is upvote baiting(getting more upvotes than you would get if you just uploaded the finished craft), and the difference between giving sneak peaks on forum posts is that you get 2 points for each upvote, and you don't overhype it cause the forums are less viewed.

These issues also make it harder for users that know better, to be able to compete.

    @ElGatoVolador do you think i care too much about my reputation these days? Its already been damaged, and besides, if the users that do pushes or sneak peaks get mad at me for this, thats their issue, they can talk to me and ask me questions, but i'm not gonna deal with someone who's gonna try to change my mind for their own good, damn, that needs to be quoted XD.

    I agree 100% ,TehDuck is right also, the people who do this will then hate you and the people who know them will hate you also, so be careful.

    @Johndfg @TehDuck Ok, jeez, i give up, you win, this arguement was pointless, this whole thing was pointless, i just have one question, for you 2, whats the point of joining a community, if you don't try to help it a little?(not trying to get empathy or anything, this is a genuine question.)

    How is this a public service announcement? The reason why it is pointless is because you're ranting about something everyone knows and doing nothing to fix it

    @TehDuck how was this pointless? Its a PSA, not all PSAs work but they have a point(most of the time), i didn't go off on a pointless rant, i went off on a rant that made points about the situation.

    @Johndfg i didn't understand the point you were trying to make by saying "There is one platinum user in particular who really makes me mad with stuff like this, but besides this i havn't really noticed.

    @stadlles that would be an issue, you are just trying to disprove something that you don't think you agree with, but heres the issue, what you said has almost NOTHING to do with the topic of this forum post, that sounds like an issue of upvotes, copying and jelousey(jelous of the user that copied you), next time, try to say something relevant to the post, rather than wasting my time.

    Everyone knows this is a problem you're just saying it in a forum post and I am 100% sure the mods already know it just causes problems inside the community
