Hello, and welcome to my newest rant.
I wanted to rant on the subject of "Update Bumping", basically meaning that you update a random bit of content, add an update log and *BAM* it's on recent posts.
This isn't as common as some of the other subjects, and I haven't seen any blogs about it, so here it is.
This started a few days ago when I saw a skin in "Recent Skins", and it was listed as being "Updated". As I went onto the skin, I found the only update was "Thanks for the Diamonds", no changes to the skin or anything.
Then I found this:
Yes, that's 11 pointless updates, in which this user (Whom I plan to leave anonymous) has done nothing to the skin, and has just basically bumped it to the recent skins. After looking at his account, I found that he has basically done this with all of his content.
This person was putting bog all effort into alot of their content, and making false updates simply to get more XP.
It's an annoying little thing, a bit of a pet peeve, but I just wanted to put this topic out there, because it is something that is getting more out of hand by the day.
And that's the end of this rant blog. Feel free to leave a Diamond, Fave, and Sub for more!
