I would like to reiterate AGAIN to please not find or harass anyone in this video, I know I made it seem all big and serious in this video but I promise that it really does not matter that much. While I disagree with the actions of the people I discuss, I have nothing against them personally.

    use code bvrr in rec room and subscribe if you want more deep dives like this! I kinda forgot to mention in the video but this is important because it pushes actually quality rooms out of spots they could be getting visits from. also it affects the new player experience because these rooms are the first things players see when they join
  • @Jeb.07
    These are the exact people that took FULL advantage of the “player is subscribed” chip rec room tried to add despite everyone saying that it was an awful idea that would be abused.
  • @HeyWerewolf
    this is honestly a massive issue rn. im very glad that rec room is fixing it.
  • @SpeedyRR
    As a creator who tries to make high quality content for my subscribers, I've always found these people annoying, and yes you are 100% right about EVERYTHING in this video. I've encountered many of these creators who brag their ass off about subs when they make some of the worst rooms in this game. I've also been offered by some of these promoters/people who buy rooms that actually begged me to sell my room to them and it's sad. I imagine this is what rec room did not originally imagine the game to be, so I'm hella glad they're fixing this.
  • @Tbb_
    The worst part too is that I’ve seen these types of rooms in the hot tab, makes finding good games to play in videos a lot more difficult
  • @pegasusbs6237
    1. OMG this has been a issue for so long thank you for talking about it!!! 2. Thanks for showing a contest room I made at (3:44) with all the drama around it I'm happy it's being used for something! 💖
  • Another episode of BVR literally spitting facts. But seriously, this is a massive issue, it seems although Rec Room is promoting these obvious low effort cash grab games. A staff member in the Rec Room discord stated that their goal is to not delete nor promote it (Obviously I could be wrong). I find it frustrating that still even after nearly a year of the costume maps being promoted through the new tab; nearly nothing has been done to get rid of this. As a very small creator it feels useless to even attempt to make a game when people can just do this. I’m glad that it’ll be fixed soon tho. there’s my little rant
  • It's really a shame .As a legitimate creator I see my own inventions used in these rooms time and time again, and it really is sad to see.
  • @Ghost_Shad0
    I feel exactly the same as I have recently noticed I have stopped playing rr as much as I used to due to the low effort rooms taking up so much space in the new tab. It makes it way harder for me to find any fun games and overall ruining the experience.
  • @yanbug
    thank god someone mentioned this main reason im getting bored of recroom its just people hungry for tokens not actually creating it for the community
  • I just clicked on the video and I'm still watching the ads but I already literally started clapping and couldn't suppress the smile on my face screaming "Finally someone talks about it!" Thank you, BVR.
  • @bred_bro
    Similar to this there is a large issue of people labeling their inventions wrong on purpose (mostly dorm skins) so you keep on seeing dorm skins in the weapons hashtag and other sections they aren’t supposed to be in. I think I’ve been seeing this problem since the dorm anchor came out.
  • @Dolphin002
    One thing they could do is to make it so that when a room has more than 5 or so public inventions not made by one of the co-owners, the room doesn't appear on the new tab.
  • @OrbitRR
    Preach BVR preach...it is frustrating to see these "games" doing better than much more high quality rooms which have had a lot of effort put into them. Poppy Playtime Chapter One is literally below these huggy hangout rooms..
  • @BliniYT
    Thank goodness someone is finally talking about this!!!
  • I wanna wish you a merry Christmas from the bottom of my heart.
  • @bejdbhebd2858
    I’ve also seen a player named “Taconic”, who is mentioned in the video, buying out rooms, then turning them into nightmares of there former selves.
  • @th3_silv3r_1
    Hey there! Just wanted to say I really appreciate you bringing attention to this sort of thing. Me and Gecko are always talking about the state of the Rec Room game tabs and how disappointed we are. It's a shame that so many great rooms are no longer promoted or visited because of rooms and people like this. I'm really looking forward to this algorithm change they're working on. And I'm happy to see Rec Room is taking some action. So many amazing rooms are being buried under all this low effort schmuck. Thank you for bringing this to the attention of the community!!

    What's really the worst is that these rooms are most likely targeted towards users under the age of 13.
