Maybe you've spammed the thread with so many posts and comments that now it's all noise instead of discussion. To report rule breaking items, flag them. BBS threads are for discussion, not the method for reporting submissions. But also, be patient. Mods don't have schedules where we work from 8-5 and get paid every payday. We volunteer our time and effort and donate time out of our lives to keep this site great.

Okay, but it's just that mods were usually removed within two days, and here it's 4 days, but okay.

Well, shit, I remember a certain person digging up a ton of stolen content in 2016. It was overwhelming to the point where they made that person a mod lol

I actually found too much stolen content, but I couldn't properly explain that they were stolen, but I'm sure of it, since I checked them for copyright.
This is a bit of a conundrum that I've solved by posting in this thread saying that I can't pinpoint the source, but I believe it may be stolen, someone please help. I tend to keep posts like that to a minimum and isolated from posts where I know the source and link it below the link to the stolen track.


But no, they are deleted.

If I had been on this site in 2016, I would also have found a lot of stolen tracks, as NG struggled with this because GD players used pirated music in this game.

The BBS is for discussions primarily


This thread is built to be the stepping stone between

I think that this submission is flagable for 1, 2, 3, can someone help me out to figure it out

And

Should we flag this submission


If you want to post an item your post should look something like this:

###########


1. Basic description of the problem, basic explanation of the situation

2. Link to the original content you are referencing

3. Link to the content you are having problems with

4. Further explanation on the topic

##########


If you follow that format, you will have much much higher success in flagging submissions correctly, and having timely responses to your problems. The more people that can flag a submission with correct details, the faster the response will be


1 person flaging, 1 week before reply.

3 people flagging, 2 days before reply.

8 people or more, a few hours before reply.


People just need to be able to understand and follow what you're trying to convey, a lot of the posts that you make. I have no idea who are you are trying to reference, what time period in the submissions that you're trying to reference, the given audio that you're trying to reference. So I can't really do anything. I'm sure that it's the same for a lot of other people

OK, thanks for the example! Now this is the only way I will mark if it was unclear before where it was stolen.

1.Hello everybody! I found an audio in which there is a mashup of two tracks.

2. https://youtu.be/ix6e9h40qMg

https://youtu.be/-7n4t0cbVD4

3. https://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/1091951

4. I don't think it should be here, since it's a mashup of two tracks, Cadillac has copyrights all the more. So he also wrote in the description that the audio is not his.

Response to Audio Portal Cleanup 2023-03-04 18:17:48


Hello everybody! I found the forbidden audio again, but it uses copyrighted vocals, and according to the rules of the site, you can't do that.


The vocals were taken from here -https://youtu.be/jhTXmuHrnac


This remix - https://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/1069917


This is a direct violation of the NG rule, which implies a ban on vocals with copyrights.

the 1:1 rules is used to eliminate songs that are exact copies, every lyric, every beat, every instrument, the speed or tempo, everything, its a very narrow and hyper focused version of the Do not upload audio that you did not create and have full rights to

that being said, the audio link that you sent only focuses on a single piano beat, i doubt that that will be enough to take this piece down

But that doesn't seem to be a remake, the 1:1 rule applies to remakes doesn't it? This one is just a reupload of the track, the audio pretty much cancels out if you play both the stolen ng upload and the original upload at the same time with one's polarity inverted. It should be flagged as stolen audio and not as a 1:1 remake in this case.

unless i misread something in the audio guidelines


as an example of a 1:1 rule

i go and remake the Mario theme and I make it sound like any of these instruments

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_R_zyAdVckg&ab_channel=JoePorter


i can't take a song, change the instrument and then call it original

the 1:1 rule can be used in instances where you can't really decern the instruments/synths/tracks of a song but it sounds exactly similar to the original audio that is being referenced.

and it has to be realllllly similar to be able to use the 1:1 rule

please see the Mario theme again

because I'm not going to get into the song between 20 seconds 40 seconds in (there is just a lot going on there) i would just call it on the 1:1 rule and be done with it


yes it might be stolen, or the author tried to 1:1 the song and use different instruments inside of the audio

either of these rules work to report this song:

Do not upload audio that you did not create and have full rights to.

You may not upload a MIDI-rip or 1:1 recreation with new instruments.
