Um don't do it? Its basically giving 2-5% of blind votes. Meaning, the followers will upvote/downvote it because of the person instead of item quality.
1. create a bot that is able to create steamaccs. 2. let the bot create 1000 steamaccs. 3. add the ability to the bot to log into one acc and do a vote 4. let the bot log into each acc and vote. i have no clue about the it part.. but i guess its simple..
There are 2 points that concerns me alot. 1. The division between Pro Sets <-> Independent Stuff. I think it's really cool the idea make stuff for pro teams, but it needs to be separated from the indepent stuff. 2. Workshop page needs to be more intuitive or make the visitors to check more stuff then look at the first…
1. Well I guess it's a good solution to the items that sometimes are left in the dark. On the other side it might get some kind of "elitism" in the workshop, the vote system is also broken. 2. Well the only purpose to make a 3th party is to put the team's logo (also having faster acceptance/higher chances to go in I…
I think that's been one of the biggest issues..The communication aspect you talk about just doesn't seem possible with Valve having such a small team on Dota 2. I've had many people I've worked with leave the workshop scene after seeing their submissions (Which did really well in the workshop) sit in the workshop 6-12…
Damn, I had written a long reply but it looks like it got lost in the internet. I'll cut this one short. @Plant - I know that feeling haha, I made that AM blind helm set about 2 months ago or something. And once I saw Tvidotto's set I knew that my AM set was never going in. Not that it was likely to go in with the way…
Two ideas that can be implemented in the workshop. 1: Vote cap- when an item reaches x amount of votes. Its moved to another section with items that have the x+ votes. 2: Removing the logos!! Under the marketing material the requirements is says that an artist/author cannot put a logo. Why can't this be implemented in the…
In my opinion it all started when sets for pro players/teams/organizations started to appear on workshop. Than people with some kind of community backup saw this and thought that they also can get a cut in sales just for doing basically nothing. I actually doubt Valve can do anything about it, because its like a hydra, you…
The reason is because their using their influence to get blind votes. It's like having a celebrity getting paid to say that they like McDonalds regardless of the celebrity's opinion. Its also like paying off critics to say it is good, then everyone else would think its good just because they trust the critic in saying that…
