I am unironically keeping count of every rideshare/iSpacer account I find.

@HorizonsTechnologies ok

@DrooMulticompany it's another thing when you need to put twice the effort in to establish a debugged, efficient, and accurate program that even works on other peoples' rockets as well. Half of the product you receive is the rocket program that comes with it.

@HorizonsTechnologies ok

programs good,
But Rocket = Rocket most of the time
🤔

@DrooMulticompany Probably because they were both 6 innovative crafts with programs you and your small brain can only think about making, smh.

@iSpace you’ve posted 6 unique rockets bro
how’s that supposed to make you 28.5k points?

@iSpace do something about it

i am unironically keeping track of every time I lose my mind trying to zoom out on mobile and a part connection changes

@Staticalliam7 besides the simp part

@Staticalliam7 No sounds good tho

@HorizonsTechnologies have you ever played the marvelous game called
"Simp Rockets"

@Mostly yeah sorry I realized that I made a retarded comment after I posted it. You are correct, but still, it's the thing about the website getting flooded. There is a difference between conventional rules (only copyright protection) and unconventional rules (copyright protection and making sure the website is still a fun place to roam)
Now, of course, you're a mod so it wouldn't be a good idea for me to convince you to change your mind about the situation and begin banning them, but It would be nice if there is some sort of limitation to those types of accounts.
But honestly I'm so confused and frustrated about the situation that thinking about stopping it doesn't fix my insomnia at all

@Mostly You see m8 there’s a thing where when somebody does something enough, it becomes genuinely hated. Take starship builds for example. They were fine in 2019 and 2020 but people started getting sick of starship builds and now many people really hate starship and don’t care much for starship builds. The same applies for iSpace accounts. You can’t stop people from hating it and it usually lasts until the kind of event or thing chills out.

@seventeen That's a poor comparison. There's no copyright surrounding the idea of a fictional space agency here. Nobody would accuse iSpace of copying because they weren't the first person to come up with the idea. This wasn't even an original idea before SR2 released/existed. This has been a thing since KSP. Are you gonna start complaining about everyone here copying KSP now? I doubt it.

@HorizonsTechnologies cry about it

@seventeen Based.

@YaMomzBox420 bro thx for the essay but I didn’t need a essay lol

@HorizonsTechnologies lol I'm gonna use that hashtag slogan for something! 🤣

Honestly the problem isn't that people like iSpace are doing the rideshare thing. I think it's great that people are inspired to offer their own services and increase the options available to others.

Where the issue lies is the fact that supply and demand don't match up very well. There's a decent number of rideshare options available, but very few users regularly making satellites and stuff. Everyone makes rockets and planes so the need for dedicated launch services is also minimal since most users can launch their own payloads. Now, there's still a niche out there for people like iSpace that provide an entire platform from highly detailed custom programmed rockets, to realistic HD videos, and even detailed professional launch announcements using this site. People who can't do those things on their own - or just don't want to - and those who enjoy the whole idea will still use rideshares.

What really needs to happen is more people making satellites, landers, rovers, etc and posting them on the site or using rideshares to launch them. If there was more stuff to put in space than rideshares available to put it there, then demand for them would go up and justify there being as many as there is or even more in the future.

Sorry for the long rant man, but I had to make sure my view on this was clear. I'm with you on this, just my reasoning is a little different lol

@Mostly it's copying, if it was to be "fun" then I can also copy SR2, can't I?

XD

@Mostly Okay I was going to change it myself lol. And I’m not debating but I do have a thing against the iSpace clones.

iSpace is the most popular user to do this, but definitely not the first. I don't see much wrong with people wanting to join in on the fun. Also watch your profanity.

Can we get some bankruptcies going on.
If you don’t be profitable you get banned

That's why I left that time consuming things
