@st

You probably know how people do quitting publicity stunts. They "quit," and, if they get X love-its on their projects, they come back. They are obviously there, watching their love-it counters.

I got an idea, indirectly from SpriteMaster.

I download and save all my projects, then delete them, and upload one saying "OMG I GOT HACKED!!!"
Then when I got fame from that, I'd hold onto it by putting back my old ones and putting out new ones.

Is this against the part of the TOU that says

Re: @st

That is definitely gaming the community, sorry. There are other ways to gain fame.

Re: @st

Not a good idea. First, it is gaming the community. Second, now that you've posted it here, many people will know you're faking so it won't work.  tongue

Re: @st

It really surprises me coming from you  tongue
Is this some kind of hypothesis? I wouldn't expect you to actually carry it out!

Re: @st

I was just wondering.
I might actually have carried through, but I doubt it.
