Anyway, as I said before, thought that you should know.
Also, there's one more thing I forgot to bring up.
All the flash they posted are the same.
"As the old saying goes...what was it again?"
Not only is it the same flash with a different name, but it also spawns pop ups. Hopefully the portal will do it's job like the first one I saw.

Even with the tags, I am willing to bet it will pass since they either don't care, or want the save point.

It wouldn't surprise me at all. It seems without the whistle system users have less of an incentive to blam or report stolen material.
Also:

Original link
The author says that it's from an app in Orkut, not sure whether it was created by it or he created it, can anyone verify?

So did the other stuff that was posted and tagged after it. It is like i said people would rather get save points before doing the right thing. Hell only 7 things got blammed yesterday, and that is only because the HH spammer next stuff into the portal. otherwise no blam points would have been earned yesterday lol.
That is sad it passed just because some people who only care about getting save points. I never understood stat whores I only cared about voting honestly. I recall on Friday that another user maybe not the same one, it had a Kitty Krew logo maybe a lone member. I saw two flashes it was busy then but that was a few days ago now. I do miss the old days of the flash portal seeing, over a 100 blams in the obituaries was not uncommon then.
Archer I'm a good shot!

Times change and we always get new members coming, as lovely and helpful as tags are, I think we all still miss the whistle. It will come back someday, someday...
I miss the old days too when most of the stuff that passed back then was actually worth protecting (With the exception of some of the spam crews that existed back then) As for my whistle function I miss it more then you know. It has been almost six years since I gained my deity whistle, and now I can't even use it. Also last I saw the graveyard only has 4 things blammed in there and that is a crying shame. No wonder a lot of people's B/P ratio's are in the mud.
Stolen Flash
Info
Stolen from some anime called "Aozora no Namida(Blood+)".
The submitter even comments that he didn't create any part of the animation.......... I'm going to guess that he didn't read the rules.

This guy claims that original author gave him permission to submit this trailer animation. Regardless, it still unfortunately counts as being stolen.
I guess he didn't read the rules either :(
Has anyone seen those "chain letter" reviews circulating in the portal? I think Facebook is starting to leak its copypaste bullshit on here.

Wow, I just blew my whistle like 90 times. Some guy is spewing butt-hurt all over the portal in his reviews, hopefully a review mod will shut him up soon....
Right when my whistle was starting to get dry too!

And, as usual, their stuff passed. I don't think the problem is that people are voting for the save points, but that they don't know that shovelware's banned. There aren't that many statwhores.

You know, if you guys post them here or message me with links, I can make sure Wade takes care of them.

Well, I don't know about Tom, but I can tell you that sending a PM to Wade isn't the most effective means of getting stuff deleted ;-)

That is funny but what is sad is that I am willing to bet that even with the stolen/Deletion tags as well as his own evidence that it is stolen that it will still pass judgement.

I don't see the point in writing those chain letters it will only get you per banned right? Nothing new about those chain reviews though. I need to see the portal those alt accounts don't care about the site, if they did they would not submit those cookie cutter games. I will look though.
Archer I'm a good shot!
ALL of these have passed judgment. Seriously?
Unpublished Submission
STOLEN FLASH
Ripped off of an old flash, the only difference is the music.
Comments: "This is based on a source engine".
...I'm pretty sure Tom said something along the lines of: "If you use out-of-the-box physics engines, your flashes will be deleted" when he announced the ban on shovelware.
VicariousE, reporting for duty. Rank: Private, as of a few hours ago. My b/p is something like 400 / 2000.
I'm not overly active on the BBS, but after seeing a few pages of the posts here, I'm sure I can learn to be a better member.
Vault 101 I have (LOST) many old and deleted Flash submissions, (you can't) PM me (dammit Tom) the filename, maybe I (godhelpmeonedayIwill) got it.
Somewhat new dress-up account.

Great. Guess who's back?
Wow, I'm still on the last list! I can't believe that. I figured since I've been inactive for a bit I would have been kicked off.
I am alive, just been tied up in 'life' or whatever it's called :P

I know the feeling, I know i've not really been that inactive but compared to recent months college has taken up all of my time so I've not been posting anywhere near as much.
Alright, I just went through the stuff you guys posted through the weekend.
Listen, I'm gonna tell you this one more time.
If it doesn't have ads, and it's not being submitted twice a day everyday, it's not shovelware.
You guys are flagging some stuff that shouldn't be flagged as shovelware. If it's borderline, chances are it's not. You're acting like you're on a witch hunt at the moment, and you're seeing witches everywhere.
Three things you want to look for!
1. Does it have ads.
2. Does it look like a 5 year old made it, or does it follow a regular template.
3. Is it submitted everyday or by a brand new account.
4. Does it say gamesgrow.
Ok I added the 4th, because that one automatically rules it as shovelware. Friday I even found some content that was tagged gamesgrow that was stolen, so I have no pity when it comes to those guys.
If those three things are not ALL PRESENT, then LEAVE IT ALONE.
