- | ====== Obscurity Portal's Existential Concerns ====== | ||
- | ===== Loss of obscurity status ===== | ||
- | |||
- | Obscurity Portal's Existential concerns largely revolve around a possible loss of its obscurity status. In an unlikely, but not impossible event of the Portal becoming widely known, it's claim of obscurity would be destroyed. | ||
- | |||
- | There are several solutions to this problem. | ||
- | |||
- | ==== It's not gonna happen ==== | ||
- | |||
- | The probability of the Portal attaining mainstream success is extremely low, while having a small but dedicated following will not upend its obscurity claim. So, there is no use worrying about this. | ||
- | |||
- | ==== So what ==== | ||
- | |||
- | If it does happen, first of all Obscurity Portal can be called that as a matter of its origins. Second, there will never be a shortage of things obscure. It can still end up here. Additionally, mainstream interest in a resource dedicated to describing obscure things does not necessarily make those things less obscure. | ||

- | ==== It's not gonna happen ==== | ||
- | |||
- | Finally, it's not gonna happen. | ||
- | |||
- | ===== Plagiarism ===== | ||
- | |||
- | By putting together a collection of creative ideas that nobody knows about, Obscurity Portal essentially provides a sandbox for ideas to be plagiarized. |
