i spotted a 1 of 172 porsche 911 turbo and they took it down for "not being exotic enough" but a 2005 mustang Gt is

Uploaded a aventador that I spotted and a 458 was parked next to it. said you couldnt have two exotics in one shot! lol!! Also the plate sht is annoying.

That is some bulls**t. I've posted many combos on there before. The mods must hate new members or something.

I hate AG for similar reasons. Uploaded the infamous dallas combo of the huayra and One-77 and they said it's too suspicious and there's no license plates, so it got deleted.
Like who in the f**king world would put front license plate on a hypercar and I guess having two hypercars in the same place is too suspicious for AG to handle

AG is surely confusing as hell.

I believe it is possible to edit your spots (i.e. upload/delete a few more photos, remove your spot completely, change your descriptions etc.), it seems some people knows how to do that (I've seen some spots that only has 3 photos in the beginning, but the next time I check that spot it has more photos. Well the spotter might have deleted that spot and uploaded again lol, who the hell knows.)

And yeah, license plate rules. This is what I really hate that website as well. Spots with wiped license plate get deleted because of this rule. The only acceptable way to prevent wiped license plate spots here is to send the mods original photos-let em know about the license plate of that car. This rule is bullsh*t. Some owners asked me do not show their license plate numbers when uploading them online! I don't want to get into any legal troubles.

You guys complained about your spots get deleted by AG due to not filling in the license plate number. Well, I have seen even weirder sh*ts. Some of my old spots got deleted cuz I "didn't fill in the license plate correctly." When I first started to upload my Canadian spots on AG, I fill the license plate number as something like "Alberta BBB-0000," because this car is from a certain state/province, right? But it was deleted cuz the "correct format" should be "BBB-0000". Kay WTF. But when I was uploading my spots from China, I always fill in the license plate as: i.e. 沪A(The regional codes of Chinese license plates, this code stands for downtown Shanghai)00000, and they never had a problem with that. WTF?

The rule of uploading photos that are less than 3mb also sucks.

And I think spotters should upload at least 3 photos on AG, otherwise the mods will remove that spot.

That's why I love ES more than AG, even though sometimes I got a little pissed off if some of my good spots did not get a lot of L/Fs. Too bad there are fewer active members at this moment. What's gonna happen in 2017?

2017 Trump will be president so I think ES will be fixed again.

And I think spotters should upload at least 3 photos on AG, otherwise the mods will remove that spot.

i saw a pic of a huyara with 4 decent pics an it got taken down

1) The only way people edit your spots is if you delete and repost. I do that a lot with cars I see more than once

2) Rules are at least one photo of the front and one of the back (excluding Carrera and Bentley Continentals, which need at least four)

3) Yeah the license plates can be a pain in the ass but the reason being is because of the way the Spotter Top 100 algorithm works. It is based on how many stars a user has. You earn a star every time you find a new car that hasn't been spotted before or you find it in a different city than were it usually is.

For example, if I find an Audi S7 Sportback with the plates are "ABC 123", and it doesn't show autofill, that is a surefire way to get a star. Or, if you find a Pagani Huayra with plates reading "PAGANI" that is usually found in Greenwich but you find it in Stamford instead, you will get a star as well. However, if you were to upload that same Pagani that somebody has already spotted before in the same town as the other spotter, you will not get a star.

If the plates are blanked, they cannot determine whether the car has been spotted before and if they should give you a star. That's why it's an issue. You can always just send them the plate beforehand, they're not going to post it anywhere. But you still have to put the plate number in the license plate field.

4) 3 MB = 3000 KB. If you're using Lightroom, you can check the box reading "Limit file size to" and put "3000" in the field. That will reduce the size to 3 KB.
5) Take more pictures of the cars you find then. Idk what to tell you. The more photos, the better.

1) How many photos of the Aventador did you take and of what parts?
2) That's because you can't kill two birds with one stone. Each car you see has to be in a separate post because of all of the license plate stuff. This is really just a website to track people's cars. It's quite interesting once you really start getting into it.

No, it's because you're not following the rules. You have to put license plate numbers on every car you see. Read my previous posts on why that is.

And also it seems to me that you have no front pics. AG needs front pics as well. They want quality stuff on their website.

I just wish they allowed older cars on there like the old Rolls-Royces and stuff. Somebody should just make a website where you find anything cool or interesting on the road and you can upload anything you want as long as it was found in the wild.

You have to remember that this website is based in the Netherlands where import taxes are incredibly high. For somebody to have a Mustang in the United States isn't a big deal, but everywhere else it's a huge deal.

And just how old was the 911?

So they want quality stuff and yet they allow cr*p like Mustang GTs and other basic muscle cars? And yet they don't allow actual exotic things like Rolls Royces? What a joke lol.

Also, on the license plate thing. It seems like quite a bizarre rule to have, especially if the owner wanted the poster to be more private with the uploading and avoid having the plates in the photos or posting the plates anywhere.


See? That sort of stuff is just exceedingly creepy to me. It should be renamed Stalkergespot.

the first ever turbo 911 from 1975-1976

1) 4 pictures, 1 with the license plate.
2) well that is honestly a really dumb rule. Why do they even care about the license plates? Its quite annoying for people who just want to show off a picture or two of the car they just spotted. Takes the fun out of casual spotting, there are way to many rules for it to be fun anymore. But if you like it, who am I to judge. Do what you enjoy and if you enjoy AG, keep on using it!
