I beg of you to please put a limit of how many times a user can get on the front page.

A person gets a project on the front page because people seeing like it. Top Viewed is one thing, if you click on a project you "have" to give it a view (there maybe can be rules for this category) but top loved and Curated get projects that are good and people like to see. Maybe some artsy stuff on Top-Remixed ticked you off but apparently did not tick the many people who remixed away  smile

Besides, not many Scratchers get front paged so much that it gets SO annoying, you beg for them not to.

Another besides, does it matter if your project gets frontpaged? Why did MIT make Scratch? For a rat-race to get on the top-* as many times as possible? NO! (I hope) It was to teach younger kids programming (I also hope). If you came here for fame, then ... I don't know ... fine. If you spent 4 weeks creating an awesome project in an effort to get "front paged" and endless (?) fame then, I'm sorry to say, you really don't understand the point of Scratch. I don't think I have EVER been frontpaged (except new projects and the old "suprise" projects) but do I care?  NO!  smile

The top-* page was probably to inspire others do remix or make their own project like one of the famous ones, not to be a coveted hall of fame. This is why we can't take the front page down.

Eh, this post is on what, the fourth page? No one will read it  sad

Yeah I just hate looking at the frontpage now. I can only tolerate a certain amount of anime, cats, and anime cats...

Same its always the same there should be a rule that you can only get front paged once in a month.

Im not trying to sound harsh but all I see is  MaskedStar,Maho, Warrior Cats, Anime, all day long for the past month. Im trying to search for a variety. I wish there was some way there could be limit. There are a lot of projects out there with variety and I know the users cant help that they get on the front page because its the community but its seems like they have taken over. I love the Featured Users part that what I look forward too know because I know there are no cats in there or the same type of project!

Totally agree with you
yeah, I have nothing against them too but the system is so glitchy, for instance, my mario chute project has 21 love its and still isnt on the front page! also, the last featured project is something i did earlier than the current author but mine did'nt get featured

I SOOOO AGREE
