Wow, Thingiverse has sure turned in to Spamiverse, eh? It's been slowly going downhill for months, but now it's almost a joke to check out what's new there. Did they just give up caring or what? :eek:

???
What do you mean ?
I find new and interesting things there all the time !
Just found some Bed-platform Extender-brackets, that I'm thinking about trying .
Enlarges bed with 8"x10" glass sheet
I think it should work well with PLA filament
Have you tried those ?

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,Quote:

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.
You should Convert the mylocal3dprinting website to be more like thingiverse,Quote:

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 annoyingQuote:
