They should maybe get their own category but some are really cool looking. Haven’t printed any yet since the good ones usually take various special filaments. But many also seem just churned out.

That’s not so straightforward IMHO - I’ve once made a profile specifically scaled down to certain size because original model was for men and my scalling allowed it to be used by women (had to print 3 times to make my wife’s stuff fit).
Same and I agree. I also don’t like the fact that multi-plate profiles time estimation shows total for all plates combined in case they want additional items on separate plate. This would imho require better UI for multi-plate profiles.

Oh fun… a huge amount of my uploads have the plate picture as the print profile image because I thought it looked clean. Guess I gotta go edit them all.
As long as you have real print image in the profile, it should be fine I think. And I do agree with plate picture looking “clean” for profile image.

As someone that has not uploaded a 3d print yet… (still working on my modeling skills) I have to say, reading that guideline/rules list does NOT encourage me to do so. I can’t imagine the anxiety you all with 100s of uploads have right now.
If they want new, competent, makers to upload their creations, they need some videos attached to that wiki explaining in detail their expectations with examples.
Don’t leave things up for interpretation.

Agreed for the vids. And centralize the information too. Some are on the forum, some on the wiki, some on the website

Haha, being lazy paid off 
47 models 47 print profiles 
Scaling is not a problem, if the model Printed Evidence presented IS that scale.
The loophole where a plate-sized print is drafted down so it prints in 10min at a tenth of the size is abused. Quality of features and overhangs doesn’t seem to matter in the eyes of support, as long as it ticks the box being the same model thats all good.
One for one, the Print Profile has to match up with the printed evidence provided. If you have a dozen profiles, you need a dozen printed models to prove that. If that is way too hard, simply don’t upload the superfluous profiles.
I feel the same way (it seems so clear). I respond to every comment on my postings when someone indicates having an issue, often with DM. Even those for profiles I did not create. Are the creators of those profiles responding to these folks? Not that I see. Creating a “spin off” profile seems so trivial to me, when compared to designing, testing, and publishing an original creation. Nobody cares more about “my” listings than me, let me uphold MY standards for the listing. I believe, Most designers will welcome others that have good intentions and contribute in a meaningful way.

Same, I do not understand any possible use-case where this would be in any way a negative. Someone uploads a print profile, they get shown a notice before hitting send that the profile will be subject to review by the model designer and could be removed at any time. The designer looks at it, prints it if they want to, and if it doesn’t meet the standards of the designer it gets revoked. period. end of story. if the person doesn’t like that, they can make a remix if it’s allowed. I’d much rather have a competing remix than an inferior problematic profile mucking up my listing. sorry not sorry.

100% SAME! I’m the one dealing with the upset users, I’m the one responding to comments and helping people figure out how to use Bambu Studio for the first time, I’m the one asking 1 star reviewers if I can help and getting nooch, let me decide what profiles get populated in my own design, dangit

I don’t see how earning points on your own model would “abuse this to farm points”. That’s what the other guy is doing! Not you as the creator.
I think we should have the option to not allow 3rd party profiles, or have the option to review them and remove them. Or maybe 3rd party profiles should not be a thing at all.
I always make profiles that people ask for, so that would still remain an option. Or people could create a remix if the license allows. Right now we have no control over what anyone posts and people interpret profile rating with model rating. You are lucky the 60% scaled version is doing well. I’m not sure you’d feel the same if it was bringing in 1-star ratings that were not being addressed by the profile author.

Is this user one of those makerworld bots that adds profiles to accounts?
They’re entire catalog of profiles (nearly 200) has no pictures I noticed.

Stumbled across it when saw BL was promoting the Bat Cat helmet on socials tonight. (btw the way that is presented here is shady 7 ways from Sunday but I doubt that will be rectified since it’s so popular)

The rules “update” has been a great fail, @makerworld has egg on its face as it continues to let popular fakers skirt the rules. They drag their heels on reports and flush others because the job is way too big, arguing to them only gets patronising replies and next to no results.
If @makerworld doesn’t want to take down a popular model, fine, leave the rubbish up and zero out the points given. That’ll sort out the scammers from the genuine.
Is this the correct link?
This user has 4 models and 5 profiles.
All of their own profiles appear to have photos.
I think this is a grammar thing.
If we look at the first part…
This is clearly their model and their profile.
I think is meant to indicate a third-party profile.
Thus, the implication is, luro02 is suggesting they could add their own 60% scale profile and then report the third-party profile as a duplicate.
Not sure if that would work as the designer’s profile would be the duplicate.
The suggestion was to allow designers to remove profiles on their models, and my reply suggested that this can be abused:
Maybe, I can explain this better with a concrete example. This is my model:
and as you can see, I posted two print profiles and another person posted a third one:
That one has quite a few more downloads than mine:
If it were possible that designers can freely remove print profiles, then I could abuse that by deleting the third party print profile and then uploading effectively the same profile again under my own name (→ I would get all future points instead of them).
Another example to think of: Some people add their own name/branding on their models, often you will find print profiles that remove that branding. Should designers have the power to remove those profiles?
If someone removes that ‘annoying’ branding, that constitutes a remix. If the designer doesn’t allow remixes in their license then they can remove this right now.
So called ‘annoying branding’ is a copyright protection tool. Users believing they have the right to change a design and to obscure the branding are on a whole different level of self-indulgence.
It is one thing to do it and print the brand removed design for personal use, that is fine. It is a whole different thing to believe they have the right to then share it with the world.
If you don’t like the annoying branding, move on to a model that doesn’t have it. That is the choice, not to changing the design and breaking copyright.

Hmm, I think the word “annoying” was the wrong choice. I was thinking of something very specific, but I should have left that out. I edited my post to reflect that.
