Advertising Projects

Some users post a comment that says "nice project! LOOK AT MINE AND TELL OTHERS TO LOOK AT IT TOO!"

I think its annoying

Re: Advertising Projects

Yes, I find it annoying as well.  What I find most annoying is that they clearly haven't looked at the project they are dropping comments on.  So the "Nice Project"  or "Awesome!"  is pure bunk that they are using to placate the project owner so that they can leave their "virus" comment.  Very hypocritical.  There are other ways to advertise your project, such as the Show and Tell Forum or making an advertising project.  Or searching for people who have made similar projects who share similar interests and leaving comments on those projects - after carefully reviewing the project of course!

Re: Advertising Projects

Sometimes a project IS "awesome!". But, i don't like advertising posts - except if you're project  is very similar to the one you're posting on.

Wow - this is my 100st post!
