Thingiverse? More like Spamiverse...

[EagleSeven]

I didn't mean to imply that Thingiverse spams me. What I meant was all of the supposed new 3D files that are actually links to streaming movies or whatever. Example: http://www.thingiverse.com/make:162707

Ah, yes, I did see one of those,
I doubt that thingiverse knows they are there, since they have such a large active upload.
I don't remember seeing a way to report those ??

Wow.I don't thingiverse very often but occasionally browse things. Over half are nothing to do with 3d printing.

I always do a search for a specific thing, like CTC, guide, holder, etc.
so I guess that's why I've only seen one similar picture, but never a video.

I have downloaded over 1,000 object files already,
and still getting More every day . LOL

I love Thingverse because it lets me browse interesting 3d models and have it printed. Sometimes it also gives me an inspiration of something to design. But I got to agree that with its booming users spams are also increasing. I guess we should be careful in what we're searching and using the sites so that we can avoid these spams.

I'm sure they do delete them, as you only really see them when you search for "newest." But when you do that it's about 5-1 fake vs. real things, which is annoying

I always noticed the spam on TV, but the mods usually cleaned it up within a few hours. Just like any spam anywhere, you need active mods on patrol
