I agree. I really don't care how many love-its I get, even though everyone hates me and I post projects up and no one views them. I just hang out in the forums.

I think that this is so important to people here because all little kids crave attention. Its kinda like this on newgrounds too but to get frontpage you need to make something really great and at that point to deserve to get recognition.

I feel insulted, mainly because you're right. If the projects already on the frontpage hopelessly outclassed me, though, I would not have such a lust for fame. But all of the "hampster" (they can't even spell their cult's name right) projects kind of madden me: Why, dear genetics, laws of probability, and such, (peanut butter athiest time!)are projects of such poor quality (compared to things that USED to get frontpage) getting so much popularity?! I used to try to tell Doody "No, look. That block goes THERE and it'll work much better." Like s/he ever listened to me, ever. It infuriates me enough so that I actively try to have MY projects recongnized, as I think if people would just plain LOOK at them...! (I apologize if I've offended anybody, but that post was just an extreme exploitation of my current feelings. Delete this if you want, but I do have these opinions.)

yeah. Also that masked star person quit but then he came back. Afterwards all of a sudden he got popular.... kinda weird. I agree with your point though

The thing that gets me is when people complain about other people wanting to be famous and then posting a message in the Show and Tell forum trying to get famous!

I think that a user should only have a frontpage project once a month. That would help get rid of superusers. When some one becomes a superuser (AKA popular) even their bad projects get frontpage which takes away the appeal of the frontpage projects in general.

Its kinda annoying to see users whose only goal is to get frontpage but there will always be people like that.

Yeah, I think one front page per two weeks to one month would be good. Along with a more diverse front page, some users would spend more time on a great project and get that one on the front page, than create many not-so-good projects.

I found that even though many people post positive comments, they don't actually love the project even if they would. By bugging people to post a love it, it seems users can receive many more love-its...

Maybe a feature where a box appears after clicking comment on a project?

Love it?
Favorite it?

That may reduce the amount of annoying "Please click love it!" posts from those fame-loving users.

This is a very important statement, Zelda123—it doesn't matter how famous you are, it is about having fun!
Maybe this should get Stickied? 

This has been really good to read. Excellent point and people, like me never has had the front page so I would rather a change of new user projects on there and users like me that never get on the front page. Besides, people think being a curator makes them a 'superuser' just doing that and spamming.
