Points/Download suggestion

6,436 Razr  8.5 years ago

Original idea by the DaBigBoss

What if you 1-4 points per plane download while an upvote would still be worth the same amount.

Feel free to play around with the idea, if you hate the idea, thats okay, its a suggestion, if you like the idea thats okay too

    @Warbine hmm, but the problem is newer people like me not getting a lot of activity like you do. so theres gotta be some way to balance that sort of thing out.

    @DaBigBoss hey once I got 20 upvotes and 400 downloads that'd be a lot of points

    now time to stop telling where i get the idea from and acually make suggestions, i think that maybe for silver users (like myself) if should be i don't know maybe 5 points per download because even if i get 100 downloads thats 500 pts so its not crazy, maybe for gold it would be 2 pts/dnl which would be 200, for 100dnls? maybe? just ideas.

    And ive just realized my newest vehicle ("The Centipede") is a great example of this. I put two weeks worth of work into it and it currently has 54 downloads and 3 upvotes (thanks btw @Razr), and like I said before this doesn't make me mad, it just leaves me thinking that the point system needs an update.

    wow this is getting more attention than i thought. i just thought of this because one of my vehicles got 75+ downloads but less than 8 upvotes, and while i wasnt mad i was frustrated.

    I like that idea of diminishing returns @Geekpride
    @Warbrine what about the platinum users who get a couple thousand downloads on their creations

    I think 1 point person download no matter what rank would be good

    I like this idea, but I'm not sure about having a cutoff for users above a particular rank. How about a diminishing returns thing? For example, 2 points after the first 5 downloads, but then it needs to get 10 more downloads for another 2 points, then 20 etc.

    it would work, but there would need to be a system where it only show's someone's download once, what if they download something a billion times?

    (Sorry if I offend you, or any platinum user) It really annoys me that no-matter what you post, you always get 5 upvotes, all the lower ranks struggle to get 5 on every creation @General360

    Again me @Johndfg have figured the cutoff would be gold rank. Also upvotes would be worth their same number of points @General360

    We didn't consider that possibility @General360

    I think me and you have come up with a gret idea, would you dropping an upvote, so we can potentially get more users input @Johndfg

    @Razr yea I like that idea! And in case a low ranked user gets featured, maybe the points cutoff would be 500-1000 points per upload?

    Maybe at gold, the cutoff for a feature is where the system cut offs. Are you a fan of its current iteration @Johndfg

    @Razr that makes sense, so it would support lower users who have people that just download their stuff without upvoting?

    After a certain rank, it could not apply , again its suggestion @Johndfg

    That would mean some users would get 2000-8000 points on a single build
