Spamming concerns: The right way to upload cookie cutters

Hi MW community,
In recent contests we encountered several cases of potential spamming and we take this issue very seriously. So starting from our Trophy Design Contest, we’ve enforced stricter rules on spamming and limited each contestant’s maximum entry to 5 uploads per contest. Exceeding this limit will result in removal of designs from contest page and disqualification. So if you have numerous designs of cookie cutters for instance, what would be the right way to enter a contest?
We encourage you to look at how Sam did it.

Hopefully everyone can understand our countermove and appreciate what we are trying to achieve: a more user-friendly MakerWorld.
Let me know if you have any questions, and don’t forget to participate in our on-going contests! Happy printing!
The MakerWorld Team

a welcome change! Is that also possible to restrict “render only” or “slicer screenshot only” entry? It really hard to tell if some of the design is good or not if it only consist render or slicer screenshot with absolutely no instruction too. It also makes a lot of deistraction for reviewers.
