UNITY ASSET STORE PUBLISHER ASSET PLACEHOLDER ANGRY BOTS SOFTWARE
I think that about sums it up, even if the software is not voting for itself.īut if you think you are in a competing software business, realize, you are writing software, where in a few days time, I can write a HTML scrubber, to constantly write positive reviews about my own company.

While you were working at McDonalds, I was trying to figure out a way to get the most people voting for my software as possible.īeing only one guy, I did the obvious thing. It was mandatory for me.Īlthough I have not been in that business for more than 5 years, I still remember it like a beast. Many times, my software, unbeknownst to the user, would go out to the internet and rate itself. I wrote software that would reply in chat rooms, namely, Yahoo, AOL chat rooms, back in late 1900 and early 2k. (not my intended clientele, but that is what happened). I know no one wants to hear about this, but 95% of my clients, were people that owned porn companies. I used to make and sell, something called ChatBots.

I'm wondering if there are any ideas for how to solve stuff like this. I'm not sure what the Asset Store people can do about it, but there has got to be some way to track where accounts were created from?īy the way I've got screenshots of the account profiles in case the developer tries to go and change something.Ī response from or the asset store team would be great, this is getting really disgusting. This is not the first time I've seen a developer register accounts just to write raving reviews of his own product.

As for the second user, I suspect that was an account that the developer already had since he has reviews dating back several months.Īgain, I'm not complaining because this is a competing product, but I want to see something done about this. Again, these users' reviews were all written today, mostly around the same time. Notice specifically the first and third users, which have VERY similar numbers, indicating that they were created around the same time. You can see them at the end of the url in the links I provided above. Still not conviced? I invite you to take a look at the user numbers of these users. So the developer downloaded a few other packs to hide the fact that he made the accounts just to rate his own product, but didn't want to spend extra money.

They are all free except for this weapon pack. Not convinced yet? Look at all the assets these users have rated. Trust me, these assets don't get that kind of volume unless they're free. And don't tell me that the reviews happened because of the sudden price drop. (Less money the developer has to give to UT?) I will be especially mad if the price goes back up after this. Now also conveniently, this is happening right after the pack price has been reduced to $5. Up until this point, this pack had received no reviews. Two of them rated the pack 6 hours ago, as of the time of this writing. Here are the user profiles:Įach of these users has rated and reviewed the same pack today. So I check the user profiles of the reviewers, and find some interesting things. I scroll down and see that there are in fact 3 reviews. So I thought that's neat, I wonder if there are any reviews now. So I'm looking around this evening and I see that it now has 3 ratings, enough to show up on the description. Now it's a nifty pack and all, but not very popular so it never had any ratings or reviews until recently.

This weapon system pack went live on the asset store not long ago (maybe a week?): I browse the asset store very frequently, to get an idea of what's out there, what people like, what the competition is like, etc. If you are taking shortcuts or using shady methods to promote your products, you have issues. I would like to see the best assets become the most popular because of the hard work and effort that the developers have put into them. I think it motivates developers to continue to improve their products and keep them updated and competitive. I'm not complaining because it's competition, I like competition. Let me preface by saying that the asset I'm "complaining" about is direct competition to one of mine. Prepare yourself for a rant because I'm seeing this repeatedly in the asset store and it's very frustrating.
