F@H: THE HARSH PR2 REALITY! πŸ€”πŸ‘€

The point of F@H rewards was always to raise awareness about the F@H project and encourage people to contribute to it. You say "people were done folding after 100k because there was no reason to keep folding back then"; I and many other people continued folding because we agreed with the project's cause. Some of us would fold for other people who wanted the extra hats (folding for others was a really big thing, and how most people got crowns and cowboy hats), while others just kept folding without worrying about that kind of thing.

Ok, let's back up for a minute... You said "I and many other people continued folding because we agreed with the project's cause." Then you went on to say "Some of us would fold for other people who wanted the extra hats (folding for others was a really big thing, and how most people got crowns and cowboy hats)." First off, I've never even heard of a Delphinoid in Pr2, the JV community, F@H, or even heard someone mention that you folded them before. Who are you?? You never introduced yourself when you first created an account on JV, 4 years ago, and even if you were a part of the community, you never told us about it. So change that "us" pronoun to "them", & get rid of that "I" pronoun because I don't believe a word you say about folding other people. I don't even think you were around back in 08-09.

"Folding people" was never really an issue because only a small handful of people have ever cared about having a high rank. In the early days of the game, there was more of a focus on actually... playing the game... like racing, making levels, chatting, and so on. My perception is that the non-gameplay-related goals people seemed to care about (if any) were primarily collecting all the hats and parts.

So, you’re telling me that you were around during the early days of Pr2 (08-09) right? You were paying attention to how big the roster was, how many people had crowns and cowboy hats, and how many people were on the rank 50+ spectrum, right? I’m just asking you these questions because I’ve not heard mention of you being involved in the JV or PR2 community or anything back then. I was around back then, and I’ve never heard of you before. So, what was your username because you sure as hell don't have it on here?

Also, that’s not an error. I did that on purpose so that people would get used to calling the +3 ranks, tokens. I don’t want anyone to be confused with what β€œused to be”, vs β€œnow”.

The social and user-generated-content aspects of the games were by far their biggest appeal, so it has always seemed a bit strange to me that these things were never quite married particularly well.

This sounds like a great idea for people to discuss how they're going to draw and create levels. Sounds quite innovate.
