Are comments for any part of the profile? As in, does a comment on a review count? I ask because reviews have a tendency to buzz on their own when they are anything different from "this game was okay."

Can we talk about the boundaries of this taboo, guys?

For instance, when is it acceptable to mention or link to your game on a forum thread? And when is it not?



I didn't know it was a taboo. I think it's a common sense thing. You could probably link to your game if it's relevant. If you're ONLY posting to plug your own game, that's just being a selfish jerk.

Common sense isn't.

Anyway, I have never linked to my game when it wasn't relevant. I'm sure people still think that I was being a selfish jerk. I'm sure I'm not the only one with this situation, either.

You could probably link to your game if it's relevant.


As clauses go, this one's awfully vague.

buzz_view = 1
buzz_download = 25
buzz_comment = 150
buzz_subscriber = 1300
buzz_review = 500
buzz_media = 500
#Reviews are multiplied by the score

Games automatically accrue buzz when one of the above events happen (a game is viewed, a game is downlaoded, etc..).
overnight during the same cron job that calculates your current makerscore, there is a job that automatically divides a game's buzz in half (as a decay)

It's not the most elaborate system, but it's working better than I anticipated, imho


that is very interesting!
