CREATORS SPAMMING MAPS TO APPEAR IN DISCOVERY

above combat collection now infiniltrated*, not just kpop collection anymore, just as they slowly took over new and updated kpop just cause no ones doing anything about them?

are collections not discovery? these 3-4 accounts have gamed it

posted yesterday, they had 16 in more islands kpop collection and this 17th map was added like clock work

The fix we need is 1 map in new and updated / week and bring back old new and updated which gave a map solid 1 million impressions. How are we supposed to get enough ratings to get into top rated if we get <100k impressions and 2 ratings? Also the survey/rating system needs to be reworked, it would be much simpler to force each unique player to give a like/dislike rather than some sketchy surveys with 2% chance and 2 weeks cooldown. Who cares if the creator rates his own island if he’s <1% of ratings. And then the most engaging is jammed up with clone maps that exploit fake playtime to get into top places.

Ugh verse code can be stolen? It’s bad enough the rest can be duped. Seeing all of this is so disheartening. I also don’t understand why Epic hasn’t banned obvious dupers and spammers. Why even spend so much time learning and getting better if this is what creators have to deal with?

The For You row for me contains several maps from the same creator and many more from their alt accounts. I have attached a video of the 100s of duplicate maps they are spam posting.

Are you guys reported these maps? one by one! maybe as a community, you need a group of people exactly doing this, finding spamming maps, delivering to you and reporting them. maybe work better in this way

that’s exactly what moderation is supposed to be for……

every report i have made is closed within 5 minutes, i only assume that is cause bridage reporting like you suggest is something account spammers would do first, so to stop that sort of abuse report moderation is really soft against them (and us) these tryhards generally ruin everything XD

they deleted new and updated tabs from all collaboration collections it seems..

It’s been well over a month that I last visited this thread with the hopes Epic would have done something… anything… against these scummy spam creators. And they have done nothing?

Disgraceful. Absolutely disgraceful.

the ignoring by these moderators here is the worst, every serious creator allready gets discouraged by the poor state of discovery so the total disrespect from the epic employees here just makes it so much worse.

I feel one off the issues is were talking to moderators that want to create an ai solution or an system against these scammers. But these people bypass any system with no problem.

Just put one guy/position 24/7 in front of discovery and make him delete all spam and ip infrigment games and it would clear up pretty fast i think

the issue is still that maps that are duplicates are showing up beside each other everywhere

the fix around oct 27th was done to like 4 tabs and seems working but tons still need this fix

and a fix is not just deleting them btw
