Hello, A bit off topic, broken record (I made this multiple times) and pretty not so optimistic (I'm in the rock bottom of my life, in fact). It seems like I get less reps than others for no reason. I don't want to be that guy but when such thing happens, I'd consider my position again on Simtropolis, possibly as far as taking long hiatus like in 2022 (tho in that year, I did it for RL stuff. More specifically my failed studying to enter a prestigious uni.) I'm struggling with rep increasing, even when I started here on ST. I don't want to be a show off and I never see a merit of it. But in recent times, I made tons of contributions here. And yet somehow, I'm still bested by some unknown batter out of nowhere (or maybe, my ignorance), which for whatever reason has 3k+ reps. It seems like contributions like helping others aren't as appreciated as making a BAT or CJ. Don't get me wrong, making BAT is difficult. And batters (and content creators in general. Sorry for borrowing a phrase from another field, which that phrase actually comes from our community first) in particular struggle alot with bad feedback. Just look at @Simmer2, @mattb325, and even @simmaster07 (for some reason) in their prime time. But so does helping others. We think every contribution matters, regardless of the type. And yet, only those types of content get reasonable reps and reviews. This is apparent these days when people like Cori is struggling with their kind of content and even as far as committing, you know (ofc, there are far more reasons than that. But ultimately, it's not her fault, at all). So, I'm gladly want to ask everyone. How do I make a great content, either a CJ or BAT or whatever? What's consider as meritful content? (This was a highly contentious topic, especially in terms of BAT reviews. One guy was almost banned for making non-meritful review, right in Simtropolis, which I won't rebash here) And speaking of making city, how do I make a city that's so beautiful, think @korver, @SIM-ple Jack? Should I scrap everything Maxis? How about using shaders? Should I learn more photoshopping? Let me know in the replies. I really want to learn any skill. So, if everyone is interested on teaching me, let me know publicly or privately. I hate being on the bottom of my life. I'm really really struggling a lot especially in RL. So, any help is definitely appreciated. Sorry for my words and wrongdoings. As always, thanks for your attentions.
