Please tell me I'm not the only one that gets depressed or genuinley pissed off when looking at new creations from players, and then there's just these extremely low effort creations that actually have people subsribe to them, and I just think, whyyyyy? There's one creator in particular by the name of Tomas#8315 who at times seems to spam upload scenarios, liveries and consists/formations, all with equally little effort that could give the NTP's distant scenery a run for it's money (good thing it's getting a remaster). All of this guy's creations have the same blank thumbnail and have a couple words for a description and sometimes, required add-ons not matching the titles of his creations. It's just a waste of the creators club and an insult to people that actually put effort into their creations. However, what makes this guy stand out more is him attention seeking by using popular creators tags in his titles. In the options to report a creation, there needs to be an option to report impersonation. Some of this guy's latest creations use the tags (TG08) from TrainGeek#2610/TrainGeek08 and (TF) from tomfresco#3165. Creators Club - (TG08) I C E 118 BERLIN (BR403) Creators Club - (TF) IR TO BASEL The point I'm trying to make is that there needs to be more categories in the options for reporting a creation.
Here's what I put in my own thread last week on this issue: "IMPORTANT! There is a user called Tomas#8315 posting fake content on Creators Club and using well-known creators' creator tags. They have used my creator tag (and livery/scenario names) twice now for fake content. Mainly my Alex (BR 182) livery I made last year, and now more recently ICE 118 Berlin (one of my most popular scenarios on the platform). Their work is noticeable as it doesn't have a thumbnail and the title and description are the same thing. (An example is below...) Them posting clickbait uploads using MY creator tag is really annoying me (for lack of a nicer term) and there are some subscribers who have fell for their trap. My work is easily identifiable using my creator tag (and a THUMBNAIL...) TIP: If the creator tag comes up without a thumbnail, it is FAKE. DO NOT SUBSCRIBE TO IT! It's clickbait. TIP 2: If the creator tag comes up with a thumbnail used during the announcement on this thread (and is uploaded by TrainGeek#2610 - ME) then it is okay to subscribe to and is a genuine release from my Creators Club Roadmap series. Please only subscribe to work uploaded using the TG08 creator tag by TrainGeek#2610 because that is the real me. If the creator tag is used by someone else, REPORT IT. Alert me to it on here (or in other community spaces I'm in - mainly community Discord servers) and I'll report it too."
