People Misuse the Spark'd Challenge
People misuse the Spark'd challenge tag in the gallery. It is possible to report uploads in the gallery, but it feels like that function isn't supposed to be used for Spark'd challenge tag misuse. I ...

It's incredibly annoying and makes it hard to browse through actual submissions when 90% on the screen is people being a-holes and using the tag as free advertisement.
How can this be prevented with next challenge?
That's why I didn't enter I remember the most downloaded sim was a bald base game sim it was top downloaded for ages I've seen some really good entries and they only have a few downloads because of people misusing the tag and custom poses also I've nothing against them but they have the advantage because the default poses ain't as good as custom poses so they don't get downloaded as much not to mention it's not fair on console simmers who can't use them.

This is the first time this type of challenge has been attempted in The Sims.
There has been a lot of feedback related to the different aspects of the process.
While there will always be those persons who do not follow the rules I am confident they will not be considered in the final pick.
This is a multi step process and the incorrectly tagged submissions will not be considered.@SqueamishNerd, @Chiligoat , @Rachelharris31 , yes, this is very annoying! ☹️ I went to download some of the other legitimate creations people have made for this challenge, and the influx of bogus entries has made this difficult, and I'm sure it will make weeding through all these entries more difficult for the judges. 😞 There is, of course the use of custom poses, but all the ridiculousness of some of the entries. Just about an hour ago I saw a household labeled as a sorority of 8 Sims, a multitude of single Sims, and tons of pets!!! 😃 None of these has to do with any type of wedding!!!!😠 🤒
However, I totally agree with what @EuphorialQueen has stated in that I'm sure none of these entries that don't follow the rules will be considered! 🙂
One other thing to note, is that there are many legitimate entries that don't tell us what category they are entered under. Some are obvious , as if you have any Vampires, Ghosts, or Spellcasters getting married , it is obviously in the Spooky category even if it isn't labeled.😉 But there were a few generic wedding entries that I wasn't sure. 🤔 I would guess they would fall under the Desert/Casino category, but then there was one I thought was dressed appropriately for that category but they were entered under the Rustic Category 🤭 (a full ball gown for the bride, and a satin vest and top hat for the groom is now rustic?🤔😃 ) So, even though that entry was labeled, it was labeled incorrectly and it also looked like many that aren't labeled at all! 😞
I hope they can iron out some of the wrinkles for the next Challenge! 🤞 I had a lot of fun participating in it 🥳, and also have enjoyed seeing the other legitimate entries, many of which I have downloaded and can't wait to play!❤️
- @Rachelharris31 Custom poses are against the rules, so those entries will not be considered by the judges, but they will certainly disturb the judges’ view so that the judges miss a lot of good entries.
