Dman979 Posted June 4, 2018 Author Share Posted June 4, 2018 Fairly often. We get most of them, but if you happen to spot something you think is a spammer, then by all means report the post and we'll check it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a mod, but pinning a thread puts it at the top of its subforum regardless of activity, so important or noteworthy threads are easily visible. This thread is pinned, you can tell by the green pushpin next to its name here and in the subforum view. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Minmus Derp Posted June 6, 2018 Share Posted June 6, 2018 (edited) Can there be a rule disallowing #3 in this thread? Also, what can moderators do? Edited June 6, 2018 by The Minmus Derp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't frequent the Spacecraft Exchange but is that actually a problem? And moreso, does it actually work? I think if someone posted a pic of a ship and said "100 likes and I'll post the craft file" they would at BEST get ignored, and most likely be laughed off the forum.

Geonovast Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 Agreed. I don't think it needs to be outlawed, as it's ultimately self defeating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dman979 Posted June 7, 2018 Author Share Posted June 7, 2018 @The Minmus Derp A rule like that would take too much time for us to enforce. We'd spend 90% of our time on that one rule, to the detriment of the other 10%. Also, we can do a lot! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think if someone posted a pic of a ship and said "100 likes and I'll post the craft file" they would at BEST get ignored, and most likely be laughed off the forum. It's been a while since I was very active on the Spacecraft Exchange, but from what I remember posting craft files was something everyone did, but wasn't strictly necessary. If you posted one without a craft file, someone would probably ask, but your post wouldn't be ignored because of the lack of one. What people cared about was the images of the craft, at least for replicas. I think Cupcake and Rune's stuff got more downloads, since it was more functional. Some of the craft which I posted, and got many rep for, could not fly or work at all without cheats, so downloading it wouldn't give you an experience much different from looking at the pictures. I made and posted those crafts because it was fun, and I enjoyed sharing them and seeing what others had made, and I would order the feedback I got in order of importance like this: Someone using a technique of mine in something of their own Text replies Rep, likes Downloads of the craft file If I had someone "ransoming" the craft files that they had made for money, I would think it was odd that they were even bothering to make it if they wanted a reward external to building it, and I would feel the same way about asking for rep. I do think asking for rep would discourage me and others from both "liking" the post and actually liking the craft. Honestly I would think the extra work of PM'ing everyone who "liked" it would not be worth the rep. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
