Remixing suggestions

I've noticed that some users are remixing their own projects to get on the front page.  Scratch should have some kind of filter to make it so you can't remix your own projects.

Re: Remixing suggestions

What if they make it better each time they remix?

I don't mean if they improve a game.  One user in particular just keeps remixing their own project for the sake of getting on the front page.  Others might start doing that.  This loophole needs to be fixed.

Re: Remixing suggestions

i think top remixed should be removed altogether. I suport remixing projects to improve them, or using a basic engine to make games out of, however top remixed is just becoming a place to spam!

I agree.  Top remixed is usually junk no one cares about anyway.

Yeah, I mean at first I was unsure about the idea of top remixed, and I slowly started to like it but when I started to see lots of remixing things like that and passing it on, BOY, that was bad.

The top remixed is where people go so they can get on the front page, regardless of how good or what the subject of the project is.
