The Upvote Drought

888 Vanistheman  7.2 years ago

Dear Simpleplanes-

I have seen hundreds of AMAZING creations... but, they have only a few downloads. This is due to the fact that people seem not to up vote, even if they love the plane.

I know this sounds dumb, but listen.

Someone puts hard work into a plane, and only 10 people download it, just because nobody bothered to up vote the creation! It sinks!

PLEASE upvote a creation if it is good!

Please up vote and share this post, this needed to be said.

    feeling the same, if you like it then give it an upvote, it takes just one click!

    @Vanistheman No I'm just universally putting people in this. It's not supposed to be aimed at you. Sorry if that was a bit unclear.

    The hard, grueling truth is, many planes are better than others. Weather you like it or not, weather your plane is good or bad, some win and some don't. I personally, hate these kind of complaints. Just because people are not as popular as other people doesn't mean something's wrong. I'm not trying to be mean or anything, but there are many people better than you, better than me, better than everyone who upvoted this post. I'm not going to sugarcoat this with pity, but you're just gonna have to accept the fact it takes hard work and skill development to become an upvote-magician. You can't simply ASK people to upvote EVERYTHING. If they did, then don't you think that they're speaking for you, not for themselves?

    Sometimes I upvote if it looks good. Sometimes I download but don't upvote because maybe the plane looks good, but it genuinely flies unrealistically or doesn't fly at all. Sometimes I download but don;t upvote because I discover the build has horrendous build quality. It's alot of factors to consider.

    There are many, many users who download and do not upvote because they don't have accounts, many more than DO have accounts. It's much easier to lurk on the site vs. signing up, that's the unfortunate truth of why this happens.
