Recently i noticed that my low_effort post was doing better then one that I made in over 6 months. it seems that the post "Quadcopter but with a twist" is about 390 downloads and "Ferrari 412 T2 1.0"(half a year to complete) is about 200 downloads. It seems that low-effort funny posts do better then high-effort detailed posts. This is not just a problem with me, i've seen plenty of other peoples builds that are high detail compared to the funny posts they are outnumbered in downloads.
@MrSilverWolf
I don't know, it's kinda funny watching them fight.
Completely agree @MrSilverWolf.
@XxRxX @Rocketguy2079 idk what’s going on here but if you guys could stop arguing please, if you feel you must continue, please take it up in discord or somewhere els not on the site
@XxRxX My evil plan has worked (clicky)
@XxRxX I particularly like people who can stand unshakeable to their ideas, let's be friends.
@XxRxX thats not nice to say
@XxRxX the german corsair is an overrated low effort plane, up to 700 upvotes
@XxRxX Well honesty I don’t care that much about simpleplanes since it’s such a small thing in my life that’s going on. People are allowed to find satisfaction in a pointless game. Also then again we are just little ants controlled by our previous motions and interactions that work until we die. Just trying to let some people know what is dissatisfactory is my minuscule life. Then again I never told you what to do. I just don’t like your opinion. (Your opinion is super ass)
@XxRxX well, i guess we have some illiterates on simpleplanes, he just might be one of them
@GrandPrix that's quite harsh
@XxRxX Not trying to argue but you are basically saying “upvotes, downloads and points are useless. People have opinions about them so they don’t represent hard work or skill. People that like their creation should not compare that creation with others nor the results they bring.” There is nothing wrong with comparing builds. Stop trying to sound cool by using words even you don’t understand
@F1Fan8910 yeah, I know but it just sucks how someone else makes a livery and gets up to 30 upvotes
@NoblePlanes ten is pretty impressive tbh, there's some high quality builds out there with 1 - 7 upvotes.
Its everything mentioned below, as well as detailed builds are simply less accessible, which can dissuade users. At the end of the day SP is a game, and people will download whatever they find will maximize their enjoyment of it. Dont beat yourself up about an underperforming post, you should really be building more for yourself and thinking of your profile as more of a storage space for your builds. You are merely a curator of your art exhibit, you shouldn't worry about who doesn't come in, you should focus on satisfying those who do.
Its about visual value, whatever people find the most visually striking, they will download
Yeah like my Emirates 777 that took almost 2 months to complete just got ten upvotes.
maybe you are the dodo cheaks
yes
Thats true tho, to some extent...
Welcome to simpleplanes
Welcome to life
Look.
People are gonna like whatever they like. It doesn't matter. Some glue eater who made a derp build will have his creation upvoted cause everyone thinks it's funny, and that's okay.
.
You don't get to control what people want to approve by their tastes and what they want leave alone. Just build, enjoy, and post it if you feel like it. Users come across what you made and they find it interesting? Good on you. They don't? Just move on.
tbh it depends on the selling point and how "interesting" it looks on first sight
